Our visit to Egypt was a life time great experience. If you value history, interesting cultures, great food and warm, friendly people – Go!. Our guide, Momo, made us feel a part of his travelling family constantly making us feel welcome, providing interesting stories and helping us with every detail. Now, back at home, we travel often in our thoughts, to a land that enriched our lives.”
The trip was fantastic and we saw some great sites. My only slight criticism is the fact that we were quoted entrance fees that we paid at the beginning of the trip but to see things fully and take pictures we realistically paid more . I think it would have be better to inform us of this in the trip notes somewhere to avoid disappointment. The trip was great though and more than met my hopes and expectations. Sherif was fantastic. He went above and beyond and always with a smile - it was definitely genuine too. He had great knowledge and made it a great trip. ”
Before leaving for this holiday we were feeling a little apprehensive about touring these countries. We had nothing to fear, we felt extremely safe the whole trip. After learning about ancient Egypt at school many years ago it was enlightening to experience this as reality. Our tour guide ensured that we saw Egypt through "his eyes" his love for his country and in depth knowledge certainly shone through as he shared his knowledge with our group.
The tour of Egypt allowed us to experience what Egypt had to offer. The overnight train from Cairo to Aswan whilst not to everyone's taste was something to be experienced and we can say that we have done that. The food was amazing and the people extremely friendly and accommodating. We were a tour group of 14 people aged from 20 to 77 and we all just clicked Do not hesitate to visit Egypt.
Jordan was also full of amazing sights and the night at the Wadi Rum was another fun experience, our night time celebrations even brought some brief rain to the desert!
Our last stop was Israel and the border crossing was easy. Jerusalem is a beautiful city and our guide was very good. In hindsight we wished we had added an extra day at the end of the tour.”

As the cradle of the world's three great monotheistic faiths - Judaism, Christianity and Islam, Israel is a fascinating kaleidoscope of ancient history and religious diversity with a host of important spiritual and sacred sites from Jerusalem to the Sea of Galilee and with our knowledgeable tour guides you'll learn all about these fascinating places and more.
Recommended places to visit in Israel
As the cradle of three of the world's major religions, there's a staggering wealth of religious monuments and sacred sites to seek out in Israel as well as modern cities and attractive bodies of water. Here's our pick of the best to get you started.
Jerusalem
At the forefront of Christianity, Judaism and Islam, Jerusalem is one of the oldest cities in the world and brimming with sacred sites, historic monuments and remarkably well-preserved architecture. Must-see sights include the beautiful Old City, stunning 7th century Dome of the Rock, revered Wailing Wall, Church of Holy Sepulchre, plus the amazing views from Mount of Olives.
Tel Aviv
Arguably the trendiest destination in The Middle East, Tel Aviv is where you’ll find modern art galleries, cool cafes, artisan boutiques, fine dining and wonderful theatres. Set on a gorgeous stretch of the Mediterranean coast, this ever-changing metropolis is Israel’s cultural capital but despite its modern vibe you can still discover remnants of its ancient past in Old Jaffa, just south of the city.
Nazareth
Best known as the home of Jesus and the Virgin Mary, Nazareth contains a number of Christian holy sites. The Old City has a charming architectural beauty with narrow cobbled lanes just begging to be explored, while modern day Nazareth on the other hand is a vibrant Arab city with a small town feel. Make sure you visit the Basilica of the Annunciation, St Gabriel’s Church and the Greek Catholic Synagogue-Church.
Dead Sea
Once one of nature’s best kept secrets, today the buoyant waters of the Dead Sea attract throngs of travellers every year in search of its therapeutic properties and astounding beauty. No trip to Israel would be complete without rejuvenating body and soul here – bob in its warm turquoise waters, slap on some mineral-rich Dead Sea mud and while away the day.
Sea of Galilee
Best known for its Gospel associations with Jesus Christ, the Sea of Galilee is a natural pilgrimage sites for Christians, but there is so much more to it. As the largest freshwater lake in Israel with beaches, hiking trails and water sports, the area is also a prime recreational spot. Travellers will find the ancient fishing village of Capernaum and the holy city of Tiberias on its shores too.
