This tour was one of the most interesting and unique adventures I have ever had.
The hotels were wonderful, especially the beautiful Marriott resort at the Dead Sea.
Both guides in Egypt and Jordan were knowledgeable and extremely competent.
My only suggestion concerns the ship on the Nile which seemed a bit past it's prime and not up to the standard I expected.
The Egypt and Jordan tour is a winner. The Egypt tour is a fast paced tour of most of the highlights of Egypt. Our tour manager Yassmin Fekry was outstanding in all respects. Great experiences, accommodations and food.
The tour of Jordan provides a number of unique experiences in the desert as well as the chance to relax at a first rate upscale resort on the Dead Sea.
The combination of Egypt and Jordan gives a good view of life and history in two Middle East countries. I highly recommend it.

The 11-Day Tour Morocco was fantastic. It exceeded our expectations, and we wished we could have spent more time at the majority of the locations. Karim, our tour guide, was wonderful. He handled every part of our tour so we didn't have to worry about anything. You'll be on the go all the time, so prepare. I wholeheartedly suggest this tour.
We had the most amazing 10 days on our Egypt Tour and Nike cruise. What made it so special was our guide Mohammed who imparts so much knowledge of ancient Egypt and Egypt today. The food and accommodation were of a high standard and all the trips especially the Hot Air Balloon trip has left us with such wonderful memories .
Thank you Mohammed and Explore

The “second day” the flight is SUPER early and you have to leave the hotel at 4 am.
That was not communicated anywhere and we didn’t arrive at the hotel u til after 11 pm the night before. It made the morning very difficult!
Also, it would be helpful if there was a place by the day noting if women needed to cover shoulders/knees or men knees. When I was packing and googling, it said that at Kom Ombo (and most of the temples) it was recommended to have shoulder and knees covered, but when we got there I was told we didn’t need it. I had a lot more pants packed then I needed and that would have been helpful to know when I actually needed to wear more conservative clothing or having my hair covered.
Overall the itinerary was good. We saw a lot and had a great guide!
We were on the Steinberger cruise ship - I would not recommend that one again. Very limited. We were on Thai ship with another group from Trafalgar that paid less for the tour and we had no extras. We allowed one drink at dinner and one bottle of water.. anything more we had to pay for. They didn’t have coffee/tea available throughout the day for free. It seemed like they were nickel and diming the guests. I have been on other River cruises and unlimited water, beverages at dinner, and feee coffee/tea throughout the day in the lounge was accessible.
This trip to Egypt operated by CharlieTheTraveler would have taken me months to plan out…and it still would not have been of the same quality. This company included a ton of activities as well as provided the best tour guide I could have ever asked for.
Just returned from an amazing 11-day trip through Greece, Turkey, and Egypt! Cruising the Saronic Gulf, exploring the Pyramids and Egyptian Museum, and experiencing the magic of Istanbul's Bosphorus were definite highlights. The hotels were great, the itinerary flowed well, and the service was top-notch. Highly recommended for an unforgettable adventure.
