I highly recommend these tours with G Adventures. The CEOs are consistently amazing, the locations visited highlight the special nature of the areas, and a lot of thought is put into the itinerary. They are comfortable including accommodations and transportation. And I especially love visiting the Planeterra-supported organizations.
We’re both in our 60s and loved the concept of seeing iconic cities in one tour. Highlights for us were Cape Town and Agra, very well organized with knowledgeable guides. The early morning flights and long transfers were tiring, and there wasn’t much time to unpack before moving again. That said, we met lovely people and learned so much. We just wish we had more time in Singapore. They handled logistics impressively for such a big tour. Would recommend for flexible, energetic travelers.
I did a short break in Cairo during my business trip I visited the pyramids of Giza and the museum, the guide Mostafa was extremely knowledgeable for the history the stories.Big thanks for all the team.
The Egypt and Red Sea tour was an excellent way to see and learn about Egypt. The guide (Mariam) was extremely knowledgeable and catered for everyone’s needs. The Red Sea extension was the perfect way to relax after a busy tour.
The Classic Egypt with Nile Cruise trip was, as expected, a fantastic holiday. Explore is my holiday tour company of choice and they did not disappoint once again (my 7th trip with them). The group dynamic for this trip was wonderful and we all had a really great time. Our tour guide (Mariam) was truly outstanding in every way and looked after us with great expertise. I have become accustomed to excellent Explore tour guides and Mariam was up there amongst the very best; knowledgeable, personable and thoroughly conscientious in every way, every day, she made the holiday a great experience and looked after our group wonderfully. The itinerary was full-on (as advertised) and we experienced as much as we were capable of seeing during a 10-day holiday. Thoroughly recommended and a 10 out of 10 holiday experience for sure.
We had a fantastic trip to Egypt. I am a single mum with a 10 and 12 year old. We were in a very small group with just one other family and we had a brilliant time. Mohammed, the group leader was amazing. He was so knowledgeable and fun and made everything run smoothly, even the bits that didn’t (don’t expect the train to be on time, however flashy the new station). He was fantastic with the kids and generous with his experience of all aspects of Egyptian life.
The trip is pretty full on but there is downtime built in. We love Egypt and will definitely go back. We’ll also definitely do another holiday with explore. For me, being on my own with the kids, the group meant I got some downtime and everything being so well organised meant I felt like I got a holiday as well! As an added bonus it was no more expensive to have two rooms at the hotels!
Would totally recommend.
This itinerary was a great way to see all the highlights Egypt has to offer. Along with a fantastic Tour Director this is the perfect trip for anyone interested in the history. Part of the itinerary was a cruise on the Nile. The ship and crew were fantastic and it was easily one of my favorite parts. With daily stops and chances to bond with other Travellers it was so much fun.
This Trafalgar tour includes both ancient history and current day industry. It was very interesting to see how they make different items today in Egypt.
The food provided with the itinerary was great, options for everyone.
I highly recommend this itinerary.
Great itinerary. I saw what I wanted to see. A bit hectic for a few days, waking up very early to catch a flight to Aswan then wake up early again to drive to Abu Simbel. But has a morning rest on the 3rd day and then 2 days rest in Hurghada. It was too cold to do much water activities. Hurghada accomodation is great with free drinks. Really enjoyed the tour with great group and tour guides.
This tour was well run and for me a completely different cultural experience. I could relax and just go with the flow knowing everything was taken care of by the amazing tour leaders who were so very knowledgeable and caring. Their job is so difficult and I appreciated them both so much. My life has been forever changed got the better by visiting these countries thank you to everyone at Expat.
