What people love about Luxury Tours in Africa
- Journeys: Explore Kruger & Victoria Falls National Geographic
Such an incredible journey to South Africa! Our tour guide, Arthur, was absolutely amazing. Not only was he incredibly knowledgeable about the country, but he was also super friendly and had a great sense of humor. We had such a fantastic time with him!
- Agatha Christie Egypt Ultra-Luxury Journey / luxurious Dahabiya free upgrade/Small Group
Well organized and efficient. Ahmed made the journey from Luxor to Aswan a special experience, accommodating to our needs at every turn. Balance of Temple viewing to free time is a good pace. Would highly recommend, make sure you get Ahmed!! :)
Everything about this trip was absolutely fantastic, and I cannot recommend it enough. The organization was perfect from start to finish, making the whole journey smooth and stress-free. The tour guides were outstanding — Mirna, Kerolos, and Medhat were all extremely knowledgeable, professional, and passionate about Egyptian history, which made every visit even more engaging. The hotels were excellent, and the cabin on the Nile cruise was stunning. The food on the boat was also amazing, with great variety and quality throughout the cruise. Overall, this tour exceeded my expectations in every way. I would highly recommend the “Legends of Egypt” tour to anyone considering a trip to Egypt.
