We have been travelling and unable to provide a review until now. The Nile tour that we did was excellent. We had a great tour leader Nabil Shohdy, who had fantastic in depth knowledge of Egypt's history, the story behind the pyramids, temples, the culture and the people. He answered numerous questions, built a cohesion and camaraderie between group member (his "tigers") establishing a what's app communication group which has continued post tour. We can highly recommend this tour and, in particular, the tour guide Nabil (tiger).Show more

We had a nice time during our Morocco trip. Our guide Yassin and our driver are very helpful, courteous and accommodating to all our inquiries and needs. Yassin was very knowledgeable about the country- history, geography etc. There was a couple of things we’re not so happy about. First was the “ Roof top Hotel where we stayed for 1 night. There was no toiletries in the room, shower head was broken and there was no hot water. There was also no hot water in our tent in the desert. Overall, we’re happy about the camel ride and sleeping in a tent in the desert 😊Show more
