2 week trip of Egypt and Jordan - We have opted for all the best places in Egypt and Jordan. Main places to mention are Cairo, Luxor, Aswan, Amman, Petra, Sun City Wadi Rum, Dead Sea, Madaba, Jerash.
Each and every leg has been customized to our requirement by GAT Tours team. They have engaged their best drivers, transport vehicles and most importantly tour guides of high repute. The hotels were of high standard and transfers between cities was seamless. They made sure that everything went so smooth. They delivered way beyond our expectations. We are so happy that we opted GAT Tours. All their representatives, tour manager were polite and accommodative and gave personal attention to all our needs. Their Driver Mr.Ahmed at Cairo is very experienced and helpful. Tour guide/Egyptologists Mr.Sayeed and Mr.Hussain have vast experience and gave us immense insights into Egyptian history. Tour/operations Manager Mr.Omar is exceptional and ensured that everything went as per the plan. I recommend GAT tours to have a memorable experience.
