Contact with the tour operator was uncomplicated and quick. Extra requests, such as the trip to Dharschur, were included in the program without any problems. The guide himself, Mina, was knowledgeable and friendly, what he shared was interesting and knowledgeable. Pickup was on time, right at the hotel, the car was clean and comfortable. Both the content and the general conditions of the tour were perfect for getting to know Egypt for the first time.
