When you don’t just want to observe wildlife, you want to be part of it, join this immersive safari adventure in South Africa’s legendary Kruger National Park. Here, we stay in tented suites during the dry season, when the vegetation thins and animals congregate around waterholes – the ideal conditions for wildlife watching. During the day, join expert guides to scour the bush for iconic safari animals; at night, dine under the brilliant Milky Way, before falling asleep in a glamping-style canvas tent to the sounds of the savannah.

The only thing I would change is that the first day - coming right after most people had taken trans-oceanic flights and still had jet lag - was too demanding (flying to Luxor, touring Karnak before checking into ship). It would have been better to have a lighter Day One to allow for rest and time zone adjustment, and do Karnak on the way back.
The all-women's tour group and the Tour Director were outstanding and hugely enhanced the experience.
Tipping became a constant irritant and would be better if Tour Director handled tips and Insight appropriately raised the package cost, to alleviate that daily chore (ensuring correct currency & denominations, ATM visits, etc.). PS - bring American dollars in small bills.
Overall, a fascinating country, knowledgeable and constantly helpful Tour Director, and a good balance of historic and current experiences. Aswan (and the Cataract Hotel) was a definite highlight, and don't pass on Abu Simbel. It is worth the cost; as is the Aswan boat tour of the Nile (two options worth doing).
