Traveling out of the country can be trying at best. Chris made our trip to Egypt a dream come true. There were 4 of us and the old saying you can’t please all the people all the time, didn’t apply here. Our guides, drivers our airport reps, and itinerary were second to none. When planning our trip Chris made sure that what we wanted to see and do was not only safe but first class all the way. From hotel choices and meals everything was truly perfect. I’ve travelled quite a bit and honestly from now on it’s Travelous and Chris all the way. If you want a worry free trip these are the people.

Our trip was great, but on three days our guides had different itineraries than what was presented to us. We were able to change things in one instance, in the other 2 we just didn’t see everything we thought we were going to see.

Our trip to Greece was everything I could have asked for. Chris at Travelous was very helpful and always responsive. International travel can always be tricky, but our trip only had a couple of minor bumps in the road that Chris rectified immediately. I will definitely use Travelous again. Top notch service!!

An amazing trip , I loved the app. It let you know everything that was happening. Chris and all his guides where extremely helpful and very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend Travelous they are very professional and there for you every step of the way.

First class trip in every way. Personable and very knowledgeable guides in every country. Great accommodations. Learn more about Middle East history than you can imagine. It was the trip of a lifetime and exceeded all our expectations. Great value!!

We travelled to Turkey for a 12 day private tour which included Istanbul Cappadocia, Izmir and Bodrum. We can't say enough good things about our experience. The people were very friendly and the historic sites were almost too many to count. Weather was outstanding with temperatures ranging from 55F to 85F, depending on where we were in Turkey. As expected, Istanbul and Cappadocia tended to be a bit cooler while Izmir and Bodrum were warmer. My wife and I were extremely pleased with the attention to detail and service we received from Travelous and specifically, Chris Bazos. Everything Travelous arranged was top shelf and we did not have a single issue the entire trip. We now have our favorite tour company and will be contacting them for all our tours in the future. I also want to mention our tour guide, Yusuf Burak. In 30 years of travelling, I don't think we have ever come across a tour guide with more knowledge of the area he was describing. He was also a wonderful person to hang out with!

Cairo and Luxor. Our trip to Egypt was excellent. Most everything went well after requesting the initial information from Travelous. It was nice that the company was not pushy in a sales type of way. Our rep was always responsive to our questions and we were fairly well prepared for our trip. The accommodations and tour guides were amazing. I would absolutely recommend a trip to Cairo and Luxor with Travelous to anyone I know.

I recently traveled to Egypt for a 17 day tour with my sister and our 88 year old mother. I personally don't normally travel this way (usually wing it) but with covid (out of practice traveling) and with our mother we decided to book a private tour. After talking to a few outfits we decided on Travelous, primarily based on the timely and informed responses that we received from Chris Bazos. Through collaboration (but mostly Chris) we had an itinerary that looked like it covered everything that we wanted to see, as well as some fun extras. Prior to our trip Chris made sure to get on the phone with us and give us a final run down on the trip and what to expect. Egypt is an absolutely beautiful country with an amazing history, thought provoking monuments and truly wonderful and friendly people. What truly made our trip unforgettable, were our travel and tour guides hired by Travelous (and Chris) who shared their Country and home with us. After over 24 hours of traveling, we were exhausted when we hit Cairo. We were met at the airport by Samer, who greeted us with a warm smile and then proceeded to take care of EVERYTHING until we were comfortably ensconced in our hotel rooms. He would meet us most mornings with a smile and always had great information, not just about the sites, but the people, culture and customs of Egypt, all shared in a warm friendly, jovial manner. Our tour guide for Cairo/Giza Samah was equally warm, knowledgable and happy. She showed us all over and had tremendous information and again shared more than just history. She studied Egyptian history so she had very detailed information and her delivery and patience were greatly appreciated. Lamey was our tour guide for our trip to Aswan, Luxor and our Nile cruise. He was very knowledgable about all of the places that we visited, was always available, always with a smile and a friendly laugh. He made modifications easily on the fly when we asked to do something different than what had been scheduled. A true joy to be around. Words can not accurately describe Samer, Samah and Lamey and how much they made our trip. They treated us like family and I miss seeing them every day, although we have stayed in touch. So much so that I invited them to stay with me if they come to the US and I will show them my part of the Country. There was not one bad part of our trip and the people (Chris, Samer, Lamey and Samah) made it perfect. While I might not return to Egypt (lots of places yet to see) if I do, it will be to visit my new friends.
