Take a 13 day tour of incredible Egypt, from Mediterranean Alexandria and the Commonwealth War Graves of El Alamein, to the legendary Pyramids of Giza, the sunny southern city of Aswan and Luxor's tomb strewn Valley of Kings. Cruising the Nile, exploring ancient wonders and more.
Good introductory cross-section in major cities. Good balance of scheduled vs. free time. Would like a little more emphasis on art--especially Uffizi Gallery and Pisan Camposanto--plus entry into St. Mark's/Doge's Palace and Duomo church (rather than some of the shopping stuff). A little too much commercial, too little history/art. (Some of guides under-informed, including one who said Galileo discovered the "two planets" around Jupiter!).

Mohamed (sp?) was a great guide. Said was an excellent, safe driver. Overall this was an incredible experience and I would recommend Explore without hesitation. The itinerary was very good. With the large amount of driving, stops were well thought out. The local guide in Fez was particularly good - all the guides were quite good but he stood out. Teas with the nomad family and the Berber family were amazing highlights. A few very minor points and I mention them only for completeness. Most of the hotels were quite good, but many of the rooms did not have shower curtains or glass enclosures :-). The Marrakech guide made a few too many "man/woman" jokes - not a big deal, but just so he could tone that down for next time. The desert camp was amazing - one small thing, the singers only played for a very short time compared to the other camps. But again, a very small point. As I said, this was a wonderful experience. We have travelled a lot on our own but we could not have had this kind of experience on our own. Thanks so much for a fantastic trip!
