This trip went above and beyond anything that was expected! Our personal guide Ahmed Hassan tended to our every need throughout the whole trip, his knowledge left no question unanswered! He took us to all the best spots and showed us his fantastic camera skills with instagram quality photos. The transport was comfortable, cool (aircon) and refreshments were ice cold; the driver was fantastic also. I can’t recommend this trip enough and I would pay 5x over to experience it again. This will not be the last time. Amazing, 5 starts isn’t enough!

Sherif (our guide) was amazing, very knowledgeable and offered great opportunities to get the best value for our money. Lunch and soft drinks were included which was great especially in the Egyptian heat. 10/10 would recommend.

Trip was amazing, transfers very well organised. Our tour guide Ahmed Hassan was with us the whole time which made us feel safe. He was very flexible with activities and gave us an opportunity to have a couple of more short experiences free of charge.
