Fletcher Smith says:
I've been travelling for close to 20 years, and this was a fantastic trip! Really nice tour leader and driver! Loved every minute it! Everyone got along and learnt a lot about the culture and history. Can't wait to do another one and I recommend it to all!
Introduction: A magical journey that takes you from Istanbul, a cultural melting pot of different people, cuisines and architectural styles, to Aswan, where the mighty Nile was tamed, and to Cairo. The pace of life and variety of culture experienced on this tour is mesmerising and most visitors don’t want to leave. Highlights include exploring Roman Ephesus, the cave villages of Cappadocia, bargaining in the fabled souks of Aleppo, standing in awe at the entrance to Petra and marveling at the never-ending splendour of the giant ancient Egyptian monuments. Travel by truck, mini bus, traditional felucca and ferry. Try mint tea, Turkish kebabs, baklava, spicy mezes and a plethora of other Middle Eastern delights as you soak up the atmosphere and wonderful hospitality of this region. This tour truly has it all.
