reviews:
"If anyone is considering a trip to
Egypt we would recommend this tour
without question or reservations.
Everything is included, no add-ons or
optional items. Nice to have it handled
that way. Aladdin, our tour director,
was the best! He made every stop
interesting as he was truly excited
about what he was showing us. You really
did select the “Treasures of Egypt” to
be included on the tour and nothing was
missed.
Al and Jenny Erickson, Fargo

"I loved the diversity of the locations
and the many different features such as
the boat rides, etc. I also feel that
About Tours does a great job of making
each traveler feel well cared for. I
have taken many tours and have never had
this level of personal service from
other tour companies. You are really to
be congratulated on this and it is why I
always look forward to travelling with
your agency.
