Immortal Egypt – GEM & 5-Star AccommodationThe tour was amazing. Abdulrahman and Anas were our guides in Cairo and during the cruise. They are very prepared, they answered all our questions and they are really funny too. For the accommodations it was even better than what we expected. Rooms were comfortable and clean. The sleeping train was pretty comfortable too. Staff from the hotel, the cruise and the train were always really kind. In the hotel and the cruise even after check out they borrowed us a shower before the sleeping trains. Food was incredible, with all kind of options including vegetarian. We had Egyptian food too and spectacles. The excursions were incredible. The guidance was really well organised, we learned a lot of ancient Egypt. The only part that I think is not really explicit are the tickets and the tips. They are not included. They explained to us why, and actually makes sense. It’s true that it’s also written in the contract. But I do think it would be good to do a friendly reminder BEFORE the tour, instead of just coming once we are there “Hey, coming to collect entrance and tipping from you”. That way we could have established better the entire budget.
Queen Cleopatra - Pyramids, GEM, Nile Cruise & 5-Star AccommodationIt was overall a great tour. We saw all the places listed in the tour. For each place their transportation and tour guides were fantastic. The pyramids tour guide Abdou and the nice cruise guide Medhat were very knowledgeable and friendly. The pickup and drop off person Omar was very friendly and always ontime.

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."
