Peter Helmy, our tour leader, was insightful. The temples and other sites we visited were all stunning but Peter succinctly summed up the history of the places and made us appreciate it even more. Although our tour group came from different parts of the world , I am sure we all Love Egypt and will cherish our experiences.
When we first booked the tour we did not know what to expect, as this was our first organized tour vacation. Then we arrived at the airport and everything just started to fall in place. It was very smooth transition into vacation mode. Meeting our fellow travelers and our CEO kicked off the tour with a bang. We immediately connected with everybody which made the experience that much better. Our CEO was extremely knowledgeable and shared a lot of information throughout the trip. He was one of the reasons that made this trip so special. Actually, all of the G Adventures staff that we got to meet, were fantastic.
Having the local moments during our tour were some of the highlights. I never expected to be tour travelling as enjoyable and will definitely use G Adventures again.
Thank you for making this a truly unforgettable experience. Way to go G Adventures!
