Back in 1989, two guys from Melbourne, Australia by the names of Darrell and Manch set off on an adventure to the other side of the world. They travelled to Africa and without air conditioning on their modified truck, they filled it with supplies, some beer, a bunch of aviator sunglasses, and...

    Loved our trip to Egypt through Intrepid. Intrepid made it so easy to enjoy all the wonderful sites we dreamed to see. Our tour guide made our trip personalized and gave us a wealth of history, culture, and stories! Thank you Maged Bottros!

    I wasn't told I'd be the only traveller on the tour, which was very disappointing. There was a lot of free time and not much to do, just be aware of this. You get hassled a lot by the locals, not just in the markets (avoid) but also on the streets, which are heavily polluted, dirty and unhygienic. The sights are ok, but done very quickly. The itinerary could easily be reduced to half the time. Alexandria is a pointless visit too.

    Tour guide Walleed was very good. Very knowledgeable and helpful. We had mixed views about the trip. Obviously the history and monuments are wonderful. Accommodations and food were just okay. One real issue was the overnight train trip from Cairo to Aswan, leaving from a seedy train station on to a decrepit train in a coffin- like cabin that was dirty, freezing ( yes, freezing) and very noisy. Unable to sleep at all and really ruined the entire next day because we were exhausted. This is a " real life experience" that should be avoided.

    Great tour covering all the sites in Egypt and our expectations were exceeded. Ahmed Elansary our tour leader was a fantastic guide who is passionate about Egypt, wanting to share his knowledge and was open minded to all our questions. Great group of people I feel we were lucky to have met which made our trip even better.
