    What a wonderfully well organised trip. The tour guide Karim and escort on the bus Tony were outstanding. At every point we felt like VIPs we’ve never been on a tour like it! Information, food, support, every step was immaculate. Amazing memories made for a lifetime. Totally recommend

    The drivers, security provided, your guides and hotel were all excellent!! Our main tour guide, Hassan, was very informative and packed a lot in. We managed to do and see more than we’d expected and would definitely recommend this trip. However, it’s a very long journey by coach so we flew back which was arranged by Yousif who made it easy and hassle free. He dropped us at Cairo airport and arranged a car to take us back to our hotel in Sharm el sheikh. Thank you so much for an amazing time.
