I am interested in not only seeing the major sites, but also interesting and informative lectures, guides and small group travel. I expect to travel for 3 weeks. Which tour groups do you recommend? I found some info from 2022, but am interested in more recent experiences.
We are signed up for Odysseys Unlimited and their Egypt tour with the Jordan extention. There have been numerous threads in the last couple of years on the subject: https://search.ricksteves.com/?button=&date_range=2y&filter=Travel+Forum&query=Egypt+tours&utf8=%E2%9C%93
We used Journey to Egypt last year for our Nile cruise (which includes guided tours of the major sites) and had a very good experience. Our group size was seven though I think normally the groups are a bit larger. We had a separate trip to Jordan in 2019 and travelled independently as we found those sites easy to visit on our own.
