Chris Bazos did an excellent job designing and organizing the details of my family’s trip to Egypt. Chris designed the trip to make sure we saw the highlights of this beautiful country and enjoyed some unique experiences such as a visit with a local family. most importantly, Chris connected us with truly professional handlers, guides and drivers that ensured a well coordinated and enjoyable experience. This insider knowledge is priceless

Our guide, Elaine made our stay in Hong Kong, March 14 & 15, 2026, memorable, personal, and so enjoyable. She planned experiences that included everything on our bucket list. From a river dinner cruise, to shopping, to visits to Buddhas, and cable car rides to experience incredible views of Hong Kong, we saw it all! She was very attentive, making sure our understanding of her explanations were clear (two members had hearing issues). She contracted wonderful drivers. She readily shared her knowledge and experiences in Hong Kong, ensuring we were very informed! She took us to see the Buddha, and we climbed all 198 stairs up to visit him, walked clockwise around, and honored him before climbing back down. Our stops at the markets helped us fulfill our wish lists of souvenirs. We changed our itinerary on day 2 with her help. Day 2 was suppose to be a 7 hr day, but we hired Elaine for an extra 2 hrs she was so great! Our last night, she took us to a wonderful, local restaurant. She ordered for us because no one in the restaurant spoke English! That is how totally local it was. AND what a great experience we had, delicious food. Her knowledge and attention helped make our visit spectacular!

Very good journey as all other trips we had with Travelous. Everything was arranged well and driver/tour guide are excellent, professional and experienced.

The entire trip to Thailand was well planned and cordinated. All arrangements were as planned and the guides were all excellent. Listen to your local guides for any fine tuning in country, they know what they are doing. This is our second trip with Travelous and we have been very satisifed on both trips.

The fact that Travelous has a 4.9 overall review rating says more than anything we can add. It is a world class operation that leaves nothing unattended. From Chris' passion, expertise and knowledge to utilizing the best service oriented guides, drivers, airport reps, etc., we experienced the finest adventure possible. Our trip to Jordan, Egypt and Morocco was outstanding on every front. We are already planning our Travelous trip to China later this year. 👍

Amazing experience in Egypt and Jordan! This was the third time using Travelous and they just keep delivering! The itineraries were amazing and all tours and guides were spectacular! The highlights were the pyramids at Giza and Petra but the entire trip was well crafted and truly once in a lifetime. Top notch hotels, guides, transportation, and service. Will definitely use them again!

The whole package was excellent: the itinerary, the guides, and the support.

We spent 10 fabulous days touring Egypt. Amazing sights - rivaled only by the fantastic team of Travelous professionals who made certain our stay was nothing short of perfect. Chris Bazos' expert knowledge helped us craft an itinerary that checked all the boxes - from the pyramids of Giza, Saqqara, Memphis and Dahshur, to Luxor, Aswan, Abu Simbel, and back again to Cairo. With over 800 miles to cover end to end, multiple in-country flights, and over 5,000 years of history, there were a lot of moving parts. Chris' team on the ground was incredible. From the moment we landed to our final farewells, we were welcomed like family and treated like VIPs. Our airport representative Samer and his colleagues Hamada and Hamadon kept all logistics running smoothly from start to finish. Our expert private guides/certified Egyptologists - Samah in Cairo and Tarik in Luxor/Aswan - brought to life the many faces and voices of Egypt's ancient past. Together we explored tombs and temples, shared laughs and conversation over meals in local restaurants, cruised the Nile by motorboat, walked the streets of Old Cairo and were among the very lucky to visit the magnificent Grand Egyptian Museum just two days after it's official opening to the world. Through Travelous, we were so fortunate to dine in Edfu as the guests of the most gracious Dr. Mohamed Sayed Mahmoud and his daughter Ziedan for a home-cooked meal in their authentic mudhouse. Hospitality we won't soon forget. Our hotels - destinations unto themselves - were superb. The sight of the pyramids looming above the grounds of the Marriott Mena House, the view of the Nile from the veranda of the Legend Old Cataract Hotel, or the hot air balloons floating over the Valley of the Kings at sunrise from The Winter Palace are images that will live on in our mind's eye forever. Thank you Travelous! Where to next?
