What people love about Family Tours in Nile Valley
- Egypt Family Holiday
This was an incredible trip and out first group trip and our first "adventure holiday" . Egypt felt really safe , our leader was fantastic and the country is full of wonders at every turn. What made it for us was the group makeup and the fact that out boys had instant friends even though at 5,7 and 9 they were by far the youngest but they still bonded with the other kids on the trip. As a parent we had sensible conversations with other adults, had time to read and relax but most importantly of all we got to do the same as our kids, we were on the journey too, not organising it and this made for a fantastic holiday for all of us and this would not have happened without the careful planning of the itinerary - it's pace was perfect and the supreme efforts of our leader Hany Mustapha . Thanks you Hany and thank you Intrepid for our best family holiday ever
- The Best Family Pharaohs Adventure Explore Cairo Nile Cruise & Hurghada
We had an Excellent tour. The guides were very informative and helpful. We couldn’t say enough good things about the trip. Highly recommend it. The food, accommodations, transportation, guides, and tours were superb.
- Classic Family Adventure - 10 Days
We travelled as a family through Egypt. Our Egyptologist was Mamdouh and he was superb. His in-depth knowledge filled in the gaps in Egyptian history and allowed our group to have an informed experience when viewing the Pyramids and temples.
