Tons of food!!!! Thank you.

Only one suggestion for improvement….for those beyond the eligible distance for car pick up, please give flight details as soon as possible so alternative arrangements can be made.

Our Croatian Guide Adi was exceptionally helpful, friendly and made sure our tour ran smoothly.
We had enough free time everywhere we went so that we could enjoy the time at our own pace.
We had so much fun getting to know each other during the 15 days (it was like a family away from home).
So much to see and be a part of the culture and taste the food of the different regions.
Loved the whole experience
We loved the trip. Everything was so well planned and Sandra kept us informed on what was happening next. Thank you Sandra you are amazing.
When approach advertises that everything is included that is exactly it.
My signature Italy was spectacular! The gurus were fabulous & nobody had to worry about anything as they looked after any problem that arose.
We visited all the highlights of Italy & we just breathed in all of their history. I celebrated my 70th birthday in Rome & they made it truly special.
It was a trip of a lifetime!

The South Africa and Victoria Falls trip we recently took with Approach Tours ranks at or near the top of all of them. Aside from delivering on all the sights and sounds of South Africa and big game safaris, the organization of the many moving parts of this trip, beginning with our at-home airport pickup service, was seamless; the in-tour transportation, accommodations and food were great; and the guidance, expertise, and services provided to our group of 26 by tour guru Laura and South African guide Deon were outstanding (kudos to Approach for bringing these people on board for our trip). Our already high expectations for this trip were actually exceeded thanks to Approach Tours excellent organization and delivery , and the awesome company of our fellow travellers.

Our national guide Nene was outstanding. Each day she would guide us thru the sites with knowledge and stories. She made the ancient ruins seem real. Our Guru Sandra made each day run smoothly. Her outgoing personality was her strongest strength and made the 30 of us feel like a community of travelling friends.
This was my 3rd Approach tour and all of them have been fabulous.
If you are looking for a fun and interesting tour take an Approach tour. You will meet great fellow Canadian travellers who will be your friends at the end of the tour. There are no hidden costs. Everything is included.
You can not go wrong with Approach Tours
There was a good mix of venues, staying at the Sheraton in Cairo, the River boat, and the seaside resort. This made the trip feel longer that 2 weeks. The pace was good. Our guide, Sameh, and our guru, Judy were both great. They made sure we were all included.

This made the trip feel longer that 2 weeks. The pace was good. Our guide, Sameh, and our guru, Judy were both great. They made sure we were all included. While I realize 12 is a small number for a tour group, that was actually one of the best parts for me. We all got to spend time with each other, which would not be the same with a larger group.
the buses were comfortable and the drivers excellent. Sameh paid the tips so we were always able to use the bathrooms. Sameh organized everything in a very professional way, and was also very entertaining. His knowledge of Ancient Egypt is very detailed.
Our guru, Judy anticipated our needs, and was very thoughtful in everything she arranged for us.
I love everything about Approach Tours - it's my style of Travel!

This Tour was busy, full of history, memorable experiences and fun activities. As a repeat Solo traveler, I felt so comfortable, included and pampered, with every single detail looked after, so all I had to do was show up and enjoy the journey!!
As per the itinerary, we explored the major and most important sites in each City, with time to let the information sink in. and explore a bit on our own. The scenery on travel days was breathtaking, with stops along the way and time for an amazing lunch, too!
This Tour was made all the more special due to our Guru, Kamille Ayrton - who personified Approach Tours as a passionate, knowledgeable, personable, helpful, professional Leader, with a delightful sense of humor and a healthy dose of fun (and treats) thrown in for good measure. Kamille truly has a "calling" for the role of Guru, with organizational and perceptive people skills, calmness and genuine caring for the folks on tour.
Approach Tours, with the all-inclusive agenda, is the answer to my travel style and I am more than thrilled to report that I have booked my next Tour with Approach to Egypt in November, 2026 - and you may have guessed - my Guru for this upcoming trip is lovely "Kamille"! Yeah!!
I also have booked Japan in April 2027 and Iceland in Sept-Oct. 2027 - and have my fingers crossed that Kamille will be assigned to lead those Tours also.

In my Opinion, Approach Tours service and attention to detail, with their absolutely "all-inclusive" policy for every Tour they offer is a win-win for me. It's my style of worry-free, stress-free travel. I leave all the planning and logistics to the Approach Team and just pack my suitcase and show up for an adventure to savour for years to come.
We loved it and out Guru Sande was amazing as was our tour guide in Portugal. We were so well taken care of and learned so much of this beautiful country!!
Fabulous trip that far exceeded our expectations in accommodation, food and experiences largely due to our Approach guru Laura and the incredibly knowledgeable and attentive local guide Deon. They made everything fun, seem less and educational.
My first time with a tour group and it was the best time ever. I feel like I have 24 new friends - our guru, tour guide and bus driver were the best. A lot of laughter, good food, excellent tours, and new friendships.

As it was my first tour, I have nothing to compare it to, but I believe the service received from research to the end of my trip was excellent.
This tour was an awesome experience, especially if you like animals. The safaris were breathtaking. There was a nice mix overall of culture, city, landscape and of course the safaris. It is a busy trip so rest up but it is well worth it!

The South Africa tour was a great introduction to travelling with a group on an action paced itinerary with experienced guru’s and local guides. The safari trip exceeded all expectations and then some! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Approach to family and friends. And because of this trip, I have a number of new friends!

I wish the trip had been a few days longer to spend more time in Valencia and Sevilla.
The group became friends and all helped to look out for one another. I was afraid as a singled traveller I would be on my own a lot, but the group was very welcoming.
Over all it was a very memorable trips and I plan to do another Approach tour in the future.
