My first trip with G, which will be the first of many. It was genuinely life changing, and has opened my eyes to "solo group travel". Saad depened the experience with knowledge and care, and the trip was unforgettable. 100000/10

I saw places I have only dreamed about. We sailed the Nile like kings & queens. I met people & would love to invite to dinner. I have been to a Mosque and learned about the practices. The people are lovely & their babies adorable. Egypt is in my heart. Thank you.

At 7:00 am our tour guide will pick you up from your hotel in Aswan to enjoy a day tour to the Temple of Kom Ombo standing on high grounds overlooking the Nile.
It differs from other temples because of its double entrance, each one is dedicated to divinity: "Haroeris" with his falcon head and " Sobek " with his crocodile head. The Temple of Kom Ombo was built in an honor of two deities the crocodile-headed Sobek, god of fertility and creator of the world, and Haroeris or the ancient falcon-headed Horus. Lunch box included.
Then you will be transferred to Edfu by road to visit the majestic temple dedicated to Horus which is considered by most to be the best preserved cult temple in Egypt. According to the Egyptian myths, it was the place where the falcon-headed god Horus took revenge of the murder of his father Osiris by killing Seth.
At the end of tour, we transfer you to your hotel in either Aswan or Luxor as per your request.
This trip was fantastic. We participated in most of the optional extras. The best of which was the Balloon ride for the sunrise over the tombs and Nile. Our local explore tour guide Mariam was marvellous and she was so knowledgeable and friendly. Nothing was too much for her. She told us so much interesting information
All sites seen in Cairo and on route were wonderful. The Cruise too was a joy.
The optional light show in Karnak was not what was expected and I would say give it a miss!
The beach extension hotel was clean, pools good, food excellent. The optional snorkelling by a local provider was a great disappointment and not what we had hoped for. Not many fish and not a good reef. But the boat trip was enjoyable too. There is are some areas of hotel need updating. Mini Golf/crazy golf course needs attention. Evening entertainment could have been better, but all in all we had a good relaxing 4 days there.

It is truly a wonderful experience, but at the same time a truly "educational one"! Our tour director, was exceptional not wasting a moment of any day, pointing out the very significant points of interests, at the same time, taking every part of this significant history in a chronological order.
The accomodations and service, both on the boat and in the hotel were five start plus, since we live in the Palm Beaches and use to up-scale adventure, made the "Breakers", look like an outhouse.....need I say more!
The value vs the price were evenly matched.
As for shopping, once again, significant shops were selected to include, spice, perfumes, and of course jewelry. At the same time educationing you on their wares and how they are used.
Like INSIGHT always does, is taking you inside the home of a residemt and demonstrates their current life style and habits, only in this example, demonstrated how bread was made not only for their family, but the entire neighborhood.
This trip will certainly standout from most, due to education we received from the extraordinary adventure. Thanks again,
and

I had such an incredible time on this explore trip. The itinerary was full on but there were still moments for relaxation where you could choose to visit other temples or sit in the sun. Our trip explore leader Mohammad was amazing and absolutely made my trip and I don’t think we could have had a better tour guide. He was so knowledgable thank you so much Mohammad!

Everything was amazing and will do more g trips only complaints are about g adventures choice in some of the accommodation- I know the 18-39 is basic but the level of some of the accommodation is not justified in my opinion

To visit Egypt was a long time dream.
But I was afraid to dive into the Middle East; Topdeck banner made me felt secure enough to risk it.
And it was so worth it
