This was great tour and our guide Ibrahim went the extra mile and made it very special. His overall knowledge is amazing. The drivers also were very good. I loved the variety of places we visited and the Riads were beautiful. I can’t wait to go back to this fabulous country. Sue April 2025

I recently experienced an unforgettable Egypt tour that exceeded all my expectations. The journey began with the breathtaking Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx—truly iconic and awe-inspiring wonders of the ancient world. A visit to the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM) complemented this perfectly, offering incredible artifacts and a deep dive into Egypt’s rich history.
The Nile cruise was a highlight, with stunning river views, luxurious comfort, and an amazing crew who provided exceptional service at every moment. Every detail was taken care of, making the experience relaxing and memorable. Don’t miss the awe-inspiring Abu Simbel temples — a spectacular sight that is truly worth the visit.
Other gems included a magical hot air balloon ride over Luxor at sunrise, offering unparalleled panoramic views of the Valley of the Kings. The Nubian Village visit was equally enchanting, providing a warm cultural experience with friendly locals and vibrant traditions. This tour offers the perfect blend of history, culture, and adventure, delivered with outstanding service throughout. Highly recommended for anyone eager to explore the wonders of Egypt!

A trip like this depends on many factors especially the guide and travel companions. In this case we were so fortunate to have Fabio Giorlando as our exceptional guide. Our travel companions were terrific! The itinerary was varied and interesting. The family run businesses we visited warmly welcomed us and shared their stories and food/wine experiences.
The food and restaurant choices were enjoyable. It was very nice that Fabio arranged reservations at restaurants for the meals not covered by the tour making it easy for us to decide whether to eat there or elsewhere (we always ate there and the food and venue were always good.)

We can't say enough about how wonderful it was! Not only did we get to experience 10 different countries and the sites and culinary experiences they offered, but we met some really fun travel mates along the way. Some hotels were better than others, but they were all super clean, provided a good breakfast, a bar for a nightcap, and most importantly, a comfortable bed. Our driver Chris was amazing, and our tour leader Steve was the absolute best - knowledgeable, organized, entertaining, and ultra-personable. The bus rides went quickly with frequent comfort stops, times for naps and time for reading/puzzles, and a couple trivia contests. We are already looking into our next Expat tour!!

Wow to Turkey. So many things to say. Stunning landscapes, amazing cities, beautiful beaches, delicious meals and soooo much incredible history. Everything is also very affordable even with the very low Australian dollar right now. Best of all is the people, they are all full of personality, jokes and kindness. As a solo female traveler, no one hassled me (although I'm in my 50's) and I never felt unsafe at any time.

My personal preference would have been for more time in Pompeii (half a day is barely time to scratch the surface) and to skip the stop in Naples, but if you're more interested in modern cities than archaeology, you'd probably disagree. This tour is a well-balanced mix, with something for everyone. Our tour leader was absolutely amazing - it was more like going on holiday with a friend than a paid guide!
