We enjoyed our time in Albania so much. The tour agency staff especially Sirma, she was very friendly and helpful. We would definitely return and book with this agency again.

The tour took me and my son through the highlights of Egypt, with something new and exciting everyday. It was well organised. Our time on the Royal Viking boat was amazing, we had the same guide for 4 days. Emad was not only was he a wealth of knowledge concerning Ancient and modern Egypt, but he looked after us like family. The itinerary was great, but Emad made sure the trip was incredible, helping us in all aspects of travel and in everything Egyptian. He was generous and caring. Thank you!

This 10-day tour offers a captivating journey through the heart of Egypt, blending iconic ancient wonders with vibrant cultural experiences. Your adventure begins in Cairo, where you'll be met at the airport and transferred to your hotel. After settling in, you'll have the freedom to explore the city or simply relax and soak up the atmosphere.
The following day, you'll delve into Egypt's rich history with a visit to the renowned Egyptian Museum, home to an astounding collection of pharaonic treasures, including those from Tutankhamun's tomb. You'll then journey to the Giza Plateau to stand in awe of the majestic pyramids and the enigmatic Sphinx. A traditional Koshary lunch will introduce you to the flavours of Egypt before you embark on an overnight train to Aswan.
In Aswan, you'll immerse yourself in the unique culture of the Nubian people, renowned for their warmth and hospitality. You'll spend a night in a traditional Nubian village, with its colourfully painted houses and lively markets, and enjoy a home-cooked dinner with a local family. You'll also visit the beautiful Philae Temple, dedicated to the goddess Isis, and embark on a relaxing felucca sailing trip down the Nile.
The journey continues to Luxor, where you'll explore the vast necropolis of the West Bank, including the Valley of the Kings, the Temple of Hatshepsut, and the Colossi of Memnon. You'll also marvel at the grandeur of Karnak Temple, a sprawling complex dedicated to the Theban Triad.
From Luxor, you'll head to the Red Sea resort of Hurghada for some well-deserved relaxation. Enjoy the resort's facilities, soak up the sun on the beach, or take advantage of the excellent diving and snorkelling opportunities. A variety of optional excursions, such as windsurfing, quad biking, and camel rides, are also available.
The tour concludes with a return to Cairo, where you'll have free time to explore the city at your own pace. Wander through the bustling Khan el-Khalili bazaar, visit the historic Citadel, or delve into the fascinating history of Coptic Cairo. Optional tours to Saqqara and Dashur offer further insights into the evolution of pyramid building.

What can I say...this tour was amazing. Never thought I'd see the sights I saw on this trip, never thought any of this would be possible in my lifetime. Egypt seemed too far, too exotic, too expensive. As soon as I saw the listing for this tour, it suddenly seemed like it might be possible.
We had reservations about going for sure. We have kids, 10 and 13. There's a war in Israel. It's summer in a very hot part of the world. Do we need Yellow Fever vaccines? Will the food make us sick? Americans kept telling us it would be too dangerous to go.
None of that turned out to be a problem. Egypt was very very safe. There are police and military personnel on the streets and at cultural sites. I saw no crime, no people sleeping on the streets. No people panhandling. Going to ATMs to get cash was very safe and easy. We went everywhere from big tourist sites to small neighborhoods. Food was great and we never got sick. We didn't drink the tap water, but bottled water and soft drinks are everywhere. It was hot, but air conditioning, pools, and headscarves manage this.
I'll say this again, because I have heard a lot about this:
Egypt is safe.
It's kind.
It's welcoming.
People are excited that you're visiting from America.
The food is great, and safe.
The hotels were amazing:
Steigenberger in Giza is clean, beautiful, has a nice restaurant with free breakfast, and has a view of the pyramids, which is pretty wild.
Movenpick in Aswan is spectacular, taking up a large portion of an island in the middle of the Nile, with pools and sustainable farms on-site.
The Jaz cruise up the Nile was really nice, with good food and comfortable quarters.
The Continental hotel in Hurghada was seriously ridiculously lavish, with a private beach on the Red Sea, giant pool, a dozen restaurants, and a shopping corridor.
And the Ramses Hilton in Cairo is clean, elegant, and right in the middle of the action of downtown Cairo.
We saw a million places from ancient Egypt I never thought we'd see. I can't overstate how incredible it is to stand in front of the Sphinx, the pyramids of Giza, Luxor temple, Kom Ombo, and especially the incredible monuments at Abu Simbel...this is an optional extra tour, and a bit expensive, as it's a whole day trip, but my goodness, it's worth the long drive. Incredible.
Overall, this trip had probably the most OMG moments I've had on a trip. And I've been to some pretty spectacular places, including India, Australia, New Zealand, Hawaii, Costa Rica, Puerto Rico, Peru (Machu Picchu), the UK, and more.
Please trust me and take the trip. Ignore the warnings. It's so worth it.

Excellent trip! We covered a lot of ground from Marrakech all the way up north to the Mediterranean coast with stops in between. Enjoyed every minute! B
Great trip and a great tour leader. Loved it all.
I have one concern to share - prior to my trip I had contacted Outdoor Albania to see if I could borrow or rent hiking poles. They said they would make the arrangements and give them to my tour leader. This did not happen as promised. You need hiking poles on this trip - especially the section from Valbona to Theth. Fortunately it still worked out as a I was able to borrow a pole from another on the trip and also used a stick from the forest! I was disappointed that Outdoor Albania did not follow through as promised. Other than that it was a perfect week in a very beautiful part of the world.

Great trip! Well organised, great hotels and evening meals. Bikes were in excellent condition. Communication with company excellent. Only thing we weren’t so keen on was the navigation app so resorted to google maps. Generally really pleased.

This part of Tuscany was a complete surprise and a total delight. Not only did we have the typical walking through rolling pastureland covered with wildflowers, we also had many walks through shady forests decorated with sun streaming through the new green leaves and over a floor of last years copper leaves before we emerged onto high ridges to enjoy stunning views over still snow clad peaks. A total delight.
