We originally booked for a group of 5 to 6 people, but due to the price, the others backed out, leaving just two of us. He was incredibly accommodating with the changes, and never made us feel like a burden. Honestly, he is worth every single penny and definitely not expensive for the quality and amount of things we were able to fit in given such a short trip. We spent about 3-4 hours at each site- never rushed and really enjoyed getting to know Moh.

From the first contact he was very attentive, answered all our questions, and organized a perfect itinerary to make the most of every day. We visited the Grand Egyptian Museum, the Giza Pyramids, the Sphinx, the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization, the Coptic Quarter, Khan El Khalili, and enjoyed a wonderful dinner cruise on the Nile. Everything was perfectly organized, with excellent guides, comfortable transportation, and always on time. In addition, Samir also coordinated our transfers in Hurghada and made sure that everything went well during the rest of the trip. He even helped us with recommendations and transportation to go to shopping malls, which made everything much easier and more comfortable for us. What we highlight the most is his professionalism, honesty, excellent communication, and willingness to help at all times.
