    I recommend!! I am a solo traveler, my guide was so nice, took me pictures, told me the history of Egypt, I felt safe and it was very friendly. I didn't expect to do so much in just a few hours! I advise you to do the camel!!! Magnificent photos at the key! Be careful you will be taken to some places to buy things but you will always have the choice to refuse! Thank you to the driver and the guide and the organizer who made me live a great afternoon! ☀️
