Timeless Egypt Tour was absolutely amazing. I cannot say enough good things about the team: Sammy, Mary and Kero. Kero was the best tour guide I have had since I have been traveling abroad. He was very attentive, knowledgable, and accommodating to our group.

The website is very user friendly and the selection of tours far exceeded that of traditional travel agents. I wanted to visit 3 specific countries that are close to each other and one of the only places I could find such a tour was through tourradar.
