I booked my trip to Jordan with Egy vacation because I knew their people from my Egypt trip in 2018. And it was fantastic. I was greeted right inside the airport and I had the best tour guide/driver Mohammed Ayesh all through my trip.

Egyvacations has been handling all my travel requirements since and to date I would highly recommend them. We have had some set backs with our luggage on arrival in Egypt but Egyvacations has been very patient, understanding and even arranged for pick up to buy extra clothing.
