Having spent close to 1 month in Egypt under the care of High End Journeys, I echo all that has been written. A dimension I've not read in other reviews is the fact that the people who work with/for High End Journeys enjoy working for them and choose to work with them whenever possible. That is an important aspect to me. A company that treats their employees well also allows for an improved guest experience. Egypt is a place where in country knowledge is critical. So, not only do they know the history, they know how to make the itinerary flow, when to visit which location, where to stop (and not stop) for lunch. We were treated as friends, honored guests, family. With the length of time I was there, it was a real advantage to have the same Egyptologists, one in Upper and another in Lower Egypt. Nagwan and Sussana were able to manage the itinerary to make the history and geographic locations flow and pace the explanations so as not to overwhelm us. We left it all up to them. We trusted their every decision! Our itinerary was created through an iterative process with Alaa. I provided him an understanding of the sorts of experiences we wanted, the types of hotels (boutique), the type cruise (dahabieh!) and he developed options. We were covered by their protective hand at every turn. Some of the people who supported us include Nagwan, Sussana, Alaa, Hesham, Kiro, Ahmed, Magdy, Nacrabieh and more whose names I'll never know! I am certain that whoever High End puts on your support team will be amazing and exceed any expectation you bring to the trip!
