Efficient, comfortable and enjoyable tour experience with Ahmed of Authentic Egypt & Pyramid immersion tour - I had an enjoyable and memorable tour to St Catherine Monastery. I was part of a group of 10. The tour included stops at the Monastery store and the city of Dahab for lunch in a traditional restaurant by the Red Sea. Lunch was basic, the restaurant location was lovely but I didn't like that there were cats in the restaurant. Some guests liked and fed and pet the cats. The pick up and drop off was on schedule from my resort in Sharm El Sheikh. The weather was cool and I was glad to have been advised to have a wrap or light jacket with me. It was a long drive to and fro through the mountainous desert region therfore, I was glad that the vehicle was comfortable and air-conditioned to avoid the dust. The tour guide and driver were knowledgeable, multilingual and friendly so that they doubled as my photographers during the trip. The guide provided valuable information about the Monastery, the story of St. Catherine, the mountains in the region, biblical and cultural accounts of Moses's sojourn and other landmarks of the Sinai desert region. It made the history come alive. Note that this tour does not get you to climb Mt Sinai. Ahmed the owner of the tour company checked in often via text messages to make sure I was enjoying the trip and after I was dropped off, which I appreciated. It made me book other tours with his company when I continued my vacation in Cairo. I also found out that Ahmed is able to customize tours to fit ones interest, budget and time. I recommend this company for this and other tours in Egypt.
