TourRadar 5 star review on 14th November 2023

JOSE

"We haven't been home more than a week from Egypt and I already miss my Egyptian tour guides and friends from Beyond the Nile. The itinerary they put together along with the accommodations and personal availability made for a vacation of a lifetime. The Egyptian tour guides were all very educated on Egyptian history and did well at keeping our 17 people group enthralled. This was not accidental, the guys from Beyond the Nile are very interested in the performance of these tour guides. After the tours they were at the hotel and would ask about the tour guides and what we thought. This was very assuring for us. \r\nAs for the accommodations, the hotels and the cruise boat were very nice and we never had an issue with cleanliness. I will recommend that you bring Fabreeze for rooms as Egypt does allow smoking in rooms. My favorite hotel was the in Luxor as we had a front row view of the Nile at night with a great view of the Karnak Temple on the west bank lit up at night. \r\nNow let me talk about the overnight train from Cairo to Luxor. This is what I call an experience. My husband and I we made the best of this experience, however would we do it again..hmmm not sure. The train is managed by the government and although the porter does his best to help with your needs (food, drinks), the train compartments wreak of smoke (Fabreze) and the courters are not very big. Oh and you share a bathroom and it smells of urine. So, if you are up for that kind of experience then yes, if not upgrade for the flight. \r\nNow the tipping. If someone assists you with anything, they will ask for a tip. Although, you pay in advance for tips, you should get small Egyptian pound (5 or 10) so you can give them out. Even the excursions, although the guides are said to be tipping for group you will get whispers asking for more. It's completely up to you, but we just got small bills. \r\nClothing: well as a female I was concerned that I wore the RIGHT clothing. What i will say to this is if your Grandma wouldn't approve.. then don't wear it. Otherwise dress comfortably and try to avoid sandals at the pyramids (lots of sand between the toes) and if you choose a skirt wear shorts under incase you want to ride the camels. \r\nIf you are concerned about safety, I can honestly say I never felt concerned for my safety, well except for trying to cross streets (you will see what I'm referring to when you arrive). \r\nI hope you choose to go to Egypt and you won't be disappointed with this tour company they will set you up for a Trip of a Lifetime. You just need to be open to the opportunity. \r\nMust do's:\r\nBalloon ride\r\nGiza night show\/dinner (if option)\r\nMuseum of Civilization \r\nAbu Simbel \r\nTombs of Ramses IV and V in Valley of Kings \r\n\r\nFor the extra tours we did most of them and my favorite was the hot hair balloon ride over the Nile. This was such a surreal experience. At first, I thought of our safety, but I can assure you these guys are professionals. Once up in the air, I knew our captain knew his stuff. WHAT AN EXPERIENCE!! Prepare to be amazed by the sunrise over the Nile and the view of the Hatshepsut Temple. Another MUST is Abu Simbel, this is a 3hr ride one way, but worth it and it is a great time to catch up on some sleep. Originally we did not select for this trip, but Ahmed convinced us to go and he was 100% correct!"

“Fast and easy. A little short on specific details of different tours. booking the tour was easy but follow up on hotel rooms and airport transfers not so good. no response in two days.”

“I have booked with TourRadar several times before and had positive experiences. The information has been clear, online answers to most questions, and subsequent communications are clear. I will say that this time the information was a bit inaccurate and misleading. The web page where all the purchase details are entered and the price is generated clearly has a box which says "G Adventures offers 5% discount for past passengers" and includes a box to include past trip/customer number. Of course I did not expect the price to show this discount when I entered my payment info because it appears it needs to be confirmed with G Adventures first. After receiving my confirmation and noting that it did not include the 5% discount (I have been on 2 G Adventures trips), I asked about it. The response indicates that this is a discounted trip and they "will not be able to include" the 5% discount. This is misleading and feels like a bait-and-switch as the reservation form just says "G Adventures offers 5% discount for past passengers" without any conditions, maybes, or caveats. Those of us who prefer reserving and purchasing online expect the online information to be accurate and reliable.”

Hey Todd, Thank you very much for your detailed feedback. We have taken a look into your booking page and understand exactly where you are coming from. G Adventures does offer an amazing 5% discount for returning travelers. However, this discount cannot be combined with any other G Adventures tour discounts. The feedback you have given regarding what is stated on the TourRadar booking page is greatly appreciated. We agree that the G Adventures 5% loyalty pricing terms can be better explained directly on the booking page to remove any possible confusion. This type of feedback helps us continue to make booking tours online easy and transparent. We thank you very much for pointing this out to us. We will take a deeper took into this and see how we can better explain the discount terms for future travelers. Thank you again for your continued loyalty and genuine feedback. Best regards, The TourRadar Team

Hi Engenio, Thank you for taking the time to review TourRadar. TourRadar works with over 2,000 different tour operators with 37,000 tours worldwide to bring you the biggest selection of scheduled, multi-city group tours. For most tours, single supplements are optional. For other tours, single supplements are either mandatory or not an option. Depending on the destination and the tour operator, some accommodation only has twin-share availability. The TourRadar Customer Support Team is available 24/7 and can confirm the rooming style and single supplement requirements if there is any doubt on your end prior to booking. Kind regards, The TourRadar Team

“My first encounter was with Elle, who was very cordial and patient with me throughout the booking process. She was a delight to work with. After that, I was told to wait 3-4 days to get confirmation on the reservation. In actuality, it was 7 days and required me to contact TourRadar to find out that I had been confirmed. Was not pleased. I had been waiting for confirmation in order to book flights and did not appreciate any delay in response. Otherwise, my experience was okay.”

Hi there Susan, Thank very much for taking the time to write us a review! We have had a look at your booking and can see that your tour was 'on request' and was confirmed within 4 business days. We always advise passengers that it can sometimes take longer than this to receive confirmation and will always be sure to follow up accordingly when we experience longer-than-usual confirmation times. It is important for passengers to note that the days outlined are 'business' days - most operators and their operations teams (who are in charge of tour confirmations) are closed through the weekend. Based on the notes on your file, we can see that our agents checked the status of your request every day until the weekend. Then, on the 4th business day, on Monday, we received confirmation from your operator and sent you a confirmation email. We hope that this response provides clarity surrounding 'on request' tours and useful information for how operators' business hours affect how quickly they are able to secure your space. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to us via live chat or phone, where we are available 24/7 to assist. Kind regards, The TourRadar Team

Hello there! Thank you so much for your review. We have had a look at your booking and can see that the operator you booked with is a self-service operator. After you book, depending on the operator, your messages will go directly to them, and they are available to respond during their local business hours. This can sometimes cause a bit of a delay, especially as many operators are closed through the weekend. Generally, your first point of contact will be a TourRadar agent who will assist you with comparing tours prior to booking. After you book, depending on the operator, your messages will go directly to them, as they will always have the most up-to-date information about your booking and are best equipped to assist you. We hope that provides some clarification and would like to thank you for continuing to choose TourRadar for your touring needs. Kind regards, The TourRadar Team

Hi there! Thank you so much for your review. We have had a look at your bookings and can see that both of the operators you travelled with are self-service operators.

“Customer who takes multiple tours from you, is always required to update the passport pictures and home address etc for each trip. Why can't this data be populated from the data already stored.”

Hello Brij, Thank you for your review and feedback. We appreciate your time and recognize how implementing this would make your booking experience much more efficient. However, important traveller information such as passport details and home addresses are not stored for security reasons. While tedious, many tour operators require up-to-date traveller details upon booking so it is important to re-enter them each time to ensure accuracy. That being said we appreciate your feedback and hope this offers some clarification. Kind Regards, The TourRadar Team

Hello Justin, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We're sorry to hear that your booking experience has been a little complicated. As per our correspondence, it looks like there may have been some confusion over the accommodation selected for your tour so additional emails were sent to clarify this. During this time, the tour operator has also advised us that some of the holds placed by other travellers had expired and more spots have been released as a result. We're sorry if these emails may have caused confusion and want to assure you that your booking has been officially confirmed with your selected accommodation. We will reach out to you directly to see if you have any additional feedback pertaining to your booking experience and tour. Kind Regards, The TourRadar Team

“While I love the savings offered by TourRadar it still isn't as good as it should be for searching for tours. The drop down menu for Destinations gives you different areas and under that it has "see all". When I choose "see all" however I don't see all I see some, maybe even most but not all countries that TourRadar has tours available for. In the Asia option Uzbekistan isn't listed. When you do a search using the search bar for Uzbekistan the results I get is 51 holiday packages. All should mean all. However worse than that is those 51 holiday packages do not include the tour that I just booked which does go to Uzbekistan. It was my first choice of destination. When I didn't find what I wanted I moved on to the Caucasus region. It was only while searching for those that I looked into one of the trips and subsequently the tour operator and discovered that they also do trips to Uzbekistan. It was this trip that I just booked. Perhaps the issue is in categorization. I expect when I search a country to get all results of any tour that goes in that county, however it seems that the search results only provides tours that only go to that country and excludes multi-country tours.”

Hello Heugo, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We've had a closer look at your booking history and it appears your email provider has been blocking the emails we have been sending you, which naturally would have appeared to be that your questions were not being answered.

“I think as far as tourradar is concerned, there response rate is quiet fast but sometimes if you require specific information/details re the tour itself they would refer you to the third party/tour operator which take days to get the reply and sometimes the information provided was too little that you have to ask again the same questions that were not clarified and again wait for days for the feedback.”

“Had I known I would have dealt directly with ExPat. There were too many communications between TourRadar and Expat, most were duplications. I walk with a cane and the Tour Leader did not take this into consideration. Fortunately my daughter travelled with me and we were able to "catch up" on the long walks. One night we had to board a very crowded train to get to our hotel. This should not have happened and surely there could have been a better way for transportation. The meal at the restaurant in Latin Quarter was not good. I was surprised with the meal or this was the way of French cooking? The meals at the other hotels were okay. On the whole the tour was very interesting and we saw some beautiful countries and their culture.”
