This was a great tour and I had an amazing time with all the friends that from the beginning Hossam Rashwan was welcoming and gave us drinks when we arrived. The food was amazing and the boat was so clean that I could sleep on the floor. I was vegetarian and cruise who was able to accommodate me and my family. The tours were very informed by Hossam and what I really liked about him was he cared to make everyone understand the history. He always wanted the best for the tourist, ensuring they were always hydrated and comfortable. I look forward to cruising with you guys again.
4 Days 3 nights 5 stars Nile Cruise Aswan to LuxorOur family of four had a wonderful time on the 7-night Japan tour! The itinerary was well planned and gave us the chance to see so many highlights, including Osaka, Tokyo, Kyoto, Mt. Fuji, and the beautiful UNESCO site Shirakawago. The 3-star hotels were comfortable and conveniently located, making it easy for us to explore. Everything was well organized, and the balance of sightseeing and free time worked perfectly for our family. Highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to experience the best of Japan in just over a week!
Stunning Japan with Shirakawa-go (private 3 star hotel rooms)The itinerary is terrific. For such a short time, you do get to do and see a lot. The whole tour is very well organized. Although not being given your flight details until the day before tend to create anxiety. Our guide, Hossam Rashwan, was wonderful and very knowledgeable. We have gone on many tours and Hossam is one of the best. We couldn't recommend this tour enough. It is a great value for money and you feel safe and well looked after. Of the extra optional excursions, Abu Simbel is a must. Yes, it's a very long journey and you don't get very much time there but it is nevertheless absolutely worth the trip.

What our customers ask about Fully Guided Tours & Trips
What are fully guided accommodations like?
You'll stay in comfortable 3-5 star hotels chosen for their location and quality. In Japan, this means places like the Star Gate Hotel near Kansai Airport and Osaka Castle Hotel. If you're headed to Egypt, you'll split your time between nice hotels like the Tolip Golden Plaza in Cairo and boats for your Nile cruise. One happy traveler put it well: "The hotels throughout the tour were all clean and comfortable. Our accommodation was everywhere acceptable and in nice boutique hotels."
How do you get around on fully guided tours?
Your guide takes care of all the travel details, so you can relax. You'll ride in comfortable, air-conditioned vehicles - small vans for smaller groups or larger buses when needed. In India, for example, groups of 4-5 travel in Toyota Innovas. Some trips mix it up with special travel experiences, like taking an overnight train in Vietnam or cruising down the Nile in Egypt. Your guide handles everything, including making sure your bags get to your room.
How active are fully guided tours?
It really depends on the tour, but most keep things at an easy to moderate level. You might walk for 2-3 hours on city tours, climb some stairs at temples or museums, or take optional hikes. In Japan, for instance, the Mount Fuji visit includes some walking at 7,546 feet (2,300m). Your guide will make sure the pace works for everyone in the group, and you'll have plenty of downtime at your hotel to rest up between activities.
How much free time do you get on fully guided tours?
You typically get 2-4 hours of free time each day to explore on your own. In India, for example, many tours do sightseeing in the morning and leave afternoons open. Your guide (travelers often mention guides like Neeraj) will suggest great things to do during your free time. Some tours also offer optional activities - like visiting the Abu Simbel temples in Egypt - if you want to add more to your day.
When's the best time to take a fully guided tour?
It really depends where you're going. Vietnam is best from October to March when you'll miss the monsoon season. Morocco shines in spring (March-May) and fall (September-November) when the weather is warm but not too hot. As one traveler who went to Vietnam shared: "We went in April and had perfect weather - not too hot or rainy, making the outdoor activities much more enjoyable."
