I was lucky enough to join this trip as an Exodus staff member, and enjoyed very minute! There were areas where other tourists were few and far between, and whilst I was prepared for beautiful deserts, the mountains were stunning. We were able to eat amazing meals for less than £2, and camping under the stars was unreal.

The whole trip was great. Our guide in Egypt was the best I have ever had. Henry was very knowledgeable and funny, and always on top of everything. My favorite things - Riding a camel at the pyramids, racing across the desert in the back of pickups at Wadi Rum in Jordan, Staying in a Nubian Village in Egypt, and the resort at the Dead Sea. Loved floating in the Dead Sea and being covered in mud. I skipped the last day tour and stayed at the resort for an all-day spa day. Well worth it!

It is an historically significant and culturally rich vacation with sights not to be seen elsewhere. The people are very friendly and, contrary to popular belief, it is a safe place to visit.
"Peter" our Egypt tour guide was exceptional! He was an unexpected pleasure to meet & absorb his vast knowledge from! We're friends on Facebook now!
Amazing logistics to fit everything in and certainly worth it, but do come prepared to spend some money if you want to experience everything.
Jordan was also incredible and tour guide great, super whirlwind trip!

Egypt is a must-do for all travellers and expat were a great company to experience it all though.
Our itinerary was brilliant, never making us feel rushed but ensuring we got to experience the best Egypt has to offer in a 10 day visit.
Ramez our guide is the best you can hope for. His knowledge of Egyptology, care for us as a group, organisation and kind and happy nature left us with memories and friendships that will last a life-time.
Not once did I feel unsafe or at risk as a solo mid 20's female traveller.
The Jordan part of the trip, while a beautiful country with amazing sites and experiences also was a bit rushed and felt disorganised. Don't let this stop you from booking the Egypt part of the trip though!
I would recommend this trip to anyone, especially with the overnight on a Felucca boat - a highlight of the trip for me!!
