Corinthian Travel Recensioni 

Our visit to Egypt went exceptionally smoothly. From the moment we were met at Cairo Airport to being dropped off for the flight from Aswan, the representatives, drivers and guides from South Sinai Travel were helpful, friendly and knowledgable.
The hotels were very comfortable. We especially enjoyed our stay in Luxor - the hotel was not suggested by Corinthian Travel but Hugh was happy to accommodate our wishes. Hugh's knowledge and experience was invaluable and we had a really fabulous trip.

Had a fantastic trip to Cairo and Alexandria with Corithian. Everything went smoothly, we had a wonderful time and honestly have no complaints.
We have nothing but praise for the local staff from South Sinai travel. From Farid who handled our airport transfers and taught us some key Arabic words whilst waiting for our baggage to Waled Samy who made all our arrangements and was always available at any time to answer questions.
Both of our drivers deserve praise for their handling of the crazy Cairo and even crazier Alexandrian traffic. Mahmoud in Cairo deserves particular praise. It was a pleasure to be greeted by his cheerful smiling face every morning and he quickly realised that my arthritis made getting in and out of the minibus difficult and took care to manoeuvre up to high kerbs to make it is easy as possible. It is the attention to this kind of small detail that really makes a trip memorable.
Our guide Dina was fantastic, the best guide we have ever had. She was great company and an inexhaustible fount of knowledge on everywhere we visited and everything in-between.
We stayed at the Marriot in Zamalek in Cairo which has everything you could possibly want in a hotel. We were disappointed that the balconies in the Gezira tower were out of use but a word to Waled and he quickly had us transferred to the Zamalek tower so we could enjoy the Nile view from our balcony.
The Cecil in Alexandria is much smaller but we enjoyed it's old world charm.
It really was the holiday of a lifetime. It was our first trip with Corithian but we would definitely use them again.

We recently got back from a trip to India’s golden triangle after a month of extended travel. This is our second time using Corinthian: our first trip was to Egypt and Jordan back in 2021. They really do think of everything to ensure you’re comfortable and don’t miss anything. Guides were fantastic and while I love planning and booking things myself as well, they really take the headache out of trying to figure out logistical challenges in India and the Middle East. Guides know where to take perfect photos as well and were even tipping locals for us to get some truly stunning pics. In Ranthambore National Park, they know the best zones for tigers and we were lucky enough to see 5 tigers in just 3 game drives. We saw other people miserable in crowded jeeps or giant lories. Corinthian ensured we booked a private jeep and naturalist, which made the experience truly fantastic. I would never have thought to do this booking on my own. My ONLY suggestion, and this is after getting back from Vietnam on a separate trip, it would be fun to try local (and reputable) street food with our guides. We did this frequently in Southeast Asia and it was a blast. Don’t hesitate to book with them - we’re in the US and they’ve always found time to call and walk through items in detail with us despite the time difference.

I want to send a huge THANK YOU to Corinthian Travel for putting together such an amazing trip. I know it’s oft used…but it was “a trip of a lifetime.” Visiting Egypt was seamless because of the ground representatives (including guides and drivers), attention to detail, and great itinerary. We are very grateful for the excellent planning and advice from Corinthian Travel.

Corinthian Travel did an absolutely wonderful job arranging THREE separate itineraries for travel in Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and Jordan; more details below. Overall, Hugh Fraser at Corinthian used his indepth knowledge of the region to arrange a perfect schedule (taking into account weather, interests, stamina levels, and the political situation) with excellent logistics (airport meeting and transfer assistance, drivers, perfect hotels) and informative and engaging guides with a mastery of their areas who were personable, helpful, and patient when we changed our minds or needed help with small but important things such as getting cash or finding a clean bathroom.

In the first incidence (see review by J. Stoner) he arranged a fabulous one week itinerary AT THE LAST MINUTE when the Gaza situation caused my two daughters and I to cancel a trip to Israel arranged by a different provider. Having already arranged a three week Egypt/Saudi/Jordan itinerary for me and a friend, Hugh devised a plan for my travel with my daughters that allowed them to see the full range of sites while arranging a different itinery for me to avoid excessive overlapping-- seeing Dendara was a great boone! Genius level work which could only be done by someone years of experience and deep ties to the region.

The following three week itinerary with my friend was a tour-de-force. From the first to the last, the people who met us and and arranged our transfers, the guides, and the drivers (and driver/guides) were excellent. We were relieved of all the tedium of travel and treated like valued guests by everyone involved. The hotels were exactly what we wanted and we ended up deeply appreciating the down-time we had as the heat was more tiring than I anticipated. Relaxing by the pool after a morning in the Egyptian sun was much appreciated and not something I would have known to ask for! In addition to the Egyptian itinerary, our Saudi Arabia and Jordan arrangements were perfect as were the travel notes for each country (including a reading list) Hugh provided for us before the trip. Corinthian did exactly what they promised for us: they arranged a tour designed specifically for us, brilliantly satifying one person's interest in ancient art and the other's interest in current cultural activities. Hugh did indeed provide a truly personalised experience designed around our specific travel style, needs, and interests.

Hugh organised a fantastic tour of Jordan for us earlier this year. His knowledge of the region, patience and attention to detail was second to none. Everything worked nicely and we were looked after very well by our driver who took us to all the various stops along the way. The suggested hotels were excellent. We got a real flavour of Jordan. A trip to remember for a long time!!

Wonderful Corinthian Travel cruise on Nile topped and tailed with hotels to explore Cairo and Luxor - a group of 8 old friends in 70s The organisation was superb making for for totally stres-free travel. Met by local agents and guides. Met by Amir in Cairo and anther Amir in Luxor smoothed through customs to hotels - they really know theeir way about.
Huge shout out for Amged our guide around Luxor temples and tombs. Highly entertaining, informative and experienced. Great rapport. Knows the best sites to see and flexibly adjusts itinerary to suit energy levels.
Was possibly a bit full-on and several very early starts partly to avoid afternoon heat. Maybe an extra day or two to chill worth building in. But then again not much we would want to have missed.
Well done Bala and Corinthian Travel and the local team at South Sinai travel

We were a group of 8 and chose Corinthian travel for their in-depth knowledge of Egypt and were not disappointed. The itinerary, and all paperwork including Foreign Office guidance, was very comprehensive and all travel, visa, hotel and guide arrangements carried out seamlessly. Our principal Egyptologist was outstanding, good fun and hugely informative (though I for one was glad there wasn't a test afterwards). If there was one thing we would change it was that the historic Mena House Hotel, by the Pyramids, now owned by Marriott, is undergoing significant refurbishment - which Hugh and Bala from Corinthian travel may not have known - and so we were in a very modern and bland 'wing' which could have been anywhere (apart from the Pyramids outside obviously). We all agreed a central Cairo hotel would have been more practical resulting in less travel to congested Cairo to see the central sites and with just one visit out to the Pyramids. The Winter Palace Hotel in Luxor was the perfect base for the visit to the tombs, Karnak and for Luxor itself. The Sonesta Sun Goddess boat was also a good choice with all suites having their own balcony to view the Nile sunsets - perfect unless there was another boat alongside ....

I cannot even begin to describe how wonderful Corinthian was! We had been scheduled to take a trip to Israel and Jordan with another provider, and when we had to cancel 10 days prior due to the situation in Israel, Hugh from Corinthian stepped in and planned us the most incredible trip to Egypt in almost no time. He saved our vacation, and was able to arrange to get us in to see so much amazing stuff. Not only did he send us to all of the spots we wanted, he also had excellent recommendations for other sights and activities. The whole thing was planned seamlessly, from having someone meet us in Cairo to assist with visas, through to getting us on a flight out of Luxor, and everything in between. The local guides were wonderful and knowledgeable, and Hugh was available throughout. Would 10/10 recommend working with this company!

Our trip to Jordan and Egypt was thoughtfully organized and well executed. Great accomodations, wonderful drivers, qualified and quality guides. Great communications before during and after our trip. We had a wonderful time in spite of the conflicts and unrest in the region. We were safe and well taken care of our entire trip and gained much from this travel experience. We definitely recommend Corinthian travel to friends and family for future trips. Hugh was particularly great.

Corinthian suggested an itinerary, collaborated with us to make small changes, and managed every step of our journey flawlessly. Our driver throughput was a treasure—accommodating, helpful, full of useful suggestions, and a fount of good will. Our site guides were organized and informative.Accommodations were very comfortable . I am grateful to Corinthian for the opportunity to experience a taste of what Jordan has to offer. I’d like to add that I travel frequently, and rarely write reviews.

Hugh Fraser from Corithian Travel put an itenary together for us for an Eygpt and Jordan trip taking in all the major sites. All of the hotels,guides,drivers aids etc were prompt helpful and polite 1st class. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this company to anyone.

We (a group of 5) have just returned from our amazing trip to Jordan & Egypt including a Nile cruise & balloon trip.
I can honestly say that Hugh Fraser went out of his way putting together our detailed travel itinerary, he listened to what we wanted to do & his suggestions on what to do & how to travel was invaluable, He was always ready & available to answer any questions that we had. The quality of the Corinthian Travel representative's that meet us at Amman & Cairo airports & the transfers through passport control with our visas, hotels, drivers & tour guides were exceptional & seamless.
I cannot thank Hugh Fraser & Corinthian Travel enough, it really was a holiday of a life time.
I cannot recommend Hugh & Corinthian Travel highly enough & really wish I could give it 10 **********

I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for your exceptional work in organizing our trip to Saudi Arabia for the guests . Your dedication and attention to detail truly made this journey a remarkable experience for the guests.

From the meticulously planned itineraries to the carefully selected hotels and knowledgeable guides, your efforts were evident every step of the way. The guests were not only satisfied but genuinely thrilled with the entire trip. Saudi Arabia's beauty and culture left an indelible mark on them. We are grateful for your professionalism, expertise, and the passion you brought to this project.

Once again, thank you, Hugh, for your outstanding work in making this trip to Saudi Arabia an unforgettable adventure.
