"Black Travel Fest BTF! Wow, where do I start!

This has literally been the experience of a lifetime. It may sound cliché but I couldn’t have imagined a more fulfilling trip. The luxury, views and historical knowledge that was imparted was extraordinary. Walking through the same grounds as ancient kings and queens I’d heard stories of as a child was a dream come true.

Oh and I almost forgot to mention that we soared above the monuments that were just towering over us the day prior in a hot air balloon. Epic!"

- Ikea

"The BTF itinerary was on point!"

"This was my second trip with Black Travel Fest and once again, I had a blast. I was able to be carefree and felt safe and secure during my time in Egypt with our armed guard...

My favorite part about the trip was that I literally did not have to think or do much of any planning when arriving at sites and hotels. I typically am used to running operations for work, and this was a well oiled machine. Thank you so much for the VIP experience at the club. The Nile River Cruise was a great experience as well..."

- Camille

"Overall, I had a GREAT trip, and can't wait to go back."

"Hi, I'm Shauna. It's my first BTF travel experience.

Day 2, we rode the camels. Best thing ever.

Day 1, amazing. Deirdre thinks of everything. From when they meet you at the airport to getting you to the location."

- Shauna

"Best! Hands down. Recommend."

that we are descended from.

Why Egypt?

Egypt is truly a unique destination for Black Travel Fest because you get...

All in one experience...

Oh, and don’t forget the mouthwatering food, shopping, and good vibes!

Slider

hear from those who traveled with us

This experience is for you if:

...YOU hunger for adventures that whisper tales of ancient wonders

...YOU love and enjoy local food

...YOU dream of drifting along the majestic Nile

...YOU yearn to stand in the shadow of monumental temples

...YOU love thrilling adventures that transport you through time and history

We’d absolutely love to have you! But, if your ideal vacation involves a lot of relaxation on the beach daily and sleeping in this experience is not for you. Although, we will be seeing and doing it all during our time in Egypt, so if you are looking for a slow paced trip this is likely not your jam.
