The trip to Saudi Arabia was amazing. It was a full packed trip with a variety of experiences. There were so many highlights for me - The Prophet's Mosque, Hegra, Yanbu (boat ride and snorkeling), the Camel Market and seeing so many camels along the way, just to mention a few. Our tour leader, Daniel was incredible! He was very organized, knowledgeable, thoughtful and created an enjoyable and informative experience for everyone. The local tour guides were also great and answered so many questions. I was impressed by how welcoming and friendly the Saudi people were to us. It was a memorable and eye opening experience that I will treasure.

Wow ! what a week I have just had in Israel on the Biblical Trip. I travelled on my own and joined a group of 11 others who were all lovely and we soon become one big family. Out guide Hilick from Rent a Guide was brilliant, so informative on the history and politics of his country. On this trip I went to places I would not of gone to independently.

This was an amazing trip and a great way to experience a small part of Oman. Marshal our tour leader was fantastic, always polite and professional, he was very happy to share the history and culture of Oman and to show points of interest which we might have otherwise missed. We covered a lot of ground in a week but saw wonderful and very varied scenery, enjoyed good food and had a lot of fun. The drivers we had were fantastic and I particularly enjoyed the drives in the desert and the mountains.

Petra was definitely our highlight! It really wowed us. The Wadi Rum desert was also a truly unique and amazing experience. We also enjoyed Jerusalem for its beauty and historically rich culture. The rest of the Israel tour was kind of a whirlwind sampler, but gave us additional overview of what the country has to offer. Having the Dead Sea day in-between the Jordan tour and the Israel tour was welcome chill time to recharge and experience the rejuvenating effects of the Dead Sea water and mud!
