A perfect holiday - Recommendation with this serious and excellent agency to do the 2-day excursion to Cairo. Very available, punctual, very fast with their minibuses that will accompany you all the time giving you always fresh water. Lunches in typical local locations with very good food.
Our guides were Kaled and Benedetto 2 exceptional people!!!
Nice, kind, very helpful and trusting.
After finishing the first day, we stayed in a beautiful hotel overlooking the pyramids, inside it seemed to be in a museum, very elegant, spacious rooms.
You made our vacation perfect, I would choose you 10 more times.

Excellent 👌 - Great experience, our tour guide Mario was not only useful and informative but also hilarious and friendly. The company was great at keeping in touch over WhatsApp through the experience which helped us relax and feel safe. You will part with your passports during this trip but they will be returned and do not panic.
Just all round a great day definitely a must do while in Egypt I learned how Egyptian paper the first ever was made and got to try some beautiful scents and moisturizers.

Beautiful - A beautiful day, not the first time I go to Egypt but the first time I go to the cairo, our Guide Khalid (the legendary and only number 1) took care of everything, negotiate prices for us, order us dinner for the return. A nice tour in the museum explaining the most important things, the boat ride on the Nile, the pyramids are wonderful, we visited shop selling papyrus and shop selling natural essences. The only flaw not connected to the tour, the arrogance and rudeness of some passengers on the bus who have no respect for others, compliments to the guy on the bus who handled the situation

EXCELENTY - Hi,I would like to say that I went to sharmel sheikh eygpt flight was with tui Airlines 3/7/24 flight took off at 3.10 and I would like to say that the tui staff were excellent and the lady attended who gave me 2 paracetamols for pain was lovely and she told me that the pilot was very dishy and I asked could I wear his hat and she told me yes she would tell him his name was josh as we landed it was all in a hurry we came out to get a taxi to our hotel all of the tui staff and pilot and co pilot was waiting for their taxi well I thought should I poke the lady with my stick but she turned round and i said I am still here and she laughed I said with is josh bum and he came forward I told him that I asked to wear the captains hat and he said to me you can wear his hat I did had a picture taken and I thank them all they were wonderful and excellent service.
My only problem and downfall of the trip is that I have assisted help Manchester Airport was brilliant and went above and beyond they were 3 assisted of us me I use wheelchair and unsteady on my feet and bad pain when walking I found it very very daunting and I felt if I fell in the aisle I would not have the strength to get myself up and my granddaughter and her boyfriend helped me to my seat row 13 now I watched the other poor people struggle to get to their seats both of them were halfway same as me my thoughts on this matter is that you need to put the disabled people first and the assisted passenger NEEDS TO BE PUT FIRST AND SECOND THEY NEED TO BE PUT YES YOU PUT THEM ON FIRST BUT MYSELF AND I THINK EVEN THE OTHER PEOPLE WHO ARE DISABLED NEED TO BE NEAR TO GO TO THE TOILETS but I did have a fantastic time with tuition staff and would love to fly again with you.
Yours sincerely Mrs kay Davies.

Worth the experience - Was fun, we had a great guide named Hammi who provided us with a bunch of water, tips, snacks and knew a lot of photo spots.
What we did not like about the trip was the wasted time on the bus ride due to a lot of stops + we spent around 2 of the last hours in some overpriced shops.

Travel and Cairo experience - Initial journey from our hotel to the Coach via minivan was not pleasant. Coach ride there wasn’t good at all, very uncomfortable. However the day brightened when we were placed in the loving hands of Fahme - our private tour guide. He was super enthusiastic with giving us new information and helped us take loads of great photos. He was generous, kind and made me forget about the journey there. Best tour guide in Cairo by a mile! The journey back from Cairo to Sharm El Sheikh was just as unpleasant as the trip in the morning, but we’ll always remember the great Fahme for his excellent service!
