It is like a floating luxury boutique hotel.]]> TESTIMONIALS http://sti-travel.com/?PageId=Testimonials Dear STI, Just wanted you to know that my wife and I had a sensational trip to Cambodia last month arranged by Christine. Both she and your representatives in Cambodia went out of their way to make the experience perfect from A to Z. The hotels, Victoria Siem Reap, Sofitel Phnom Penh, 4 Rivers Floating Lodge on the Tatai River in Koh Kong, Sokha Beach Resort in Sihanoukville, and Raffles Le Royal in Phnom Penh were each special in their own way. 4 Rivers was an exceptional experience. Over the course of our vacation, every guide and driver performed reliably and timely. Nothing went awry. Our guide in Siem Reap, Li Kim, was especially thoughtful, knowledgeable, and helpful. When we arrived in Phnom Penh, my wife realized a local laundry in Siem Reap forgot to include her skirt in the clean clothes package. A call to Li was all it took. The next day he went to the laundry, picked up the skirt, packaged it, and had it flown to Phnom Penh where your local rep delivered it to us. I also can't say enough about the itinerary which was executed to perfection. I would recommend the itinerary, the hotels, and needless to say Christine and your staff at STI, to anyone contemplating a trip to Cambodia or elsewhere. Thanks again for the wonderful service and thoughtful planning.

I don't believe we could have had a better itinerary. The tour director we had for Egypt, Ayman Bassily, was outstanding. His knowledge, expertise, patience and sensitivity to the group's needs, made the trip that much better. Our tour director for Israel was good, but not always so easy to understand. On the whole, I would say the December 1st FAM was a very good trip and experience. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of the FAM.

Good morning to you both! It's Sunday afternoon, November 27, 2011, our "jetlag" is over and I want to thank-you and STI for a FABULOUS trip to Egypt and Jordan. My husband Jim and I have traveled quite a bit but we have never had such a passionate tour guide as we had with Ayman. He is a total joy to be with, and his passion and knowledge of Egypt has opened our eyes to history as he made it so real! We have both been researching timelines and delving into the history of Egypt since we returned home on the 24th!
We have so many fond memories of Egypt and the warm welcoming of its citizens and resent how our news media are portraying the demonstration/protest as if it is occurring all over! It is confined to a small location in downtown Cairo, at no time did we ever feel threatened or scared. Everyone at the hotels and the various sites we visited were welcoming and friendly. We are making it our personal goal to educate our clients and friends not to believe what they are seeing on TV!
We will be planning another visit to Egypt (with STI of course!), after all we still have so much more to see and experience. If you have anyone that is on the fence about traveling to Egypt, I would be happy to "hold their hand" and share my experiences!
Thanks again to all of the staff at STI and especially Aymen for such a special time!

The project is planned to lift the 41-stone blocks with an average weight of 16 tons and move the wooden boat, buried for 4,500 years, from its underground pit.
King Khufu, reigned from 2589 to 2566 BCE, was the second pharaoh of the fourth dynasty and the builder of the Great Pyramid of Giza, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. His solar boat was designed to ferry him to the afterlife according to ancient Egyptian beliefs.
