My experience was very good with them, they waited me at the airport even if the flight had delay some hours, they waited me with a sing writting my name. I ask also to stop to take out money from ATM. They waited us with cold water. This was very usefull for me, beacuse I was with 2 small children and I needed a safe drive, direct to the hotel. My driver name was HIMA, and was very polite and helpfull with us, with luggage. I recomand them.
"Thank you so much for sharing such a heartwarming and detailed review! We are absolutely thrilled to hear that Hima provided a safe, smooth, and welcoming experience for you and your two little ones. Waiting patiently through flight delays, greeting you clearly with your name sign, offering cold water, and accommodating the ATM stop are exactly the kinds of thoughtful touches we strive for to make family travel stress-free. We will certainly pass your lovely compliments along to Hima; he will be so happy to know his helpfulness with the luggage and polite care made your journey to the hotel perfect. Thank you for your wonderful recommendation, and we hope to welcome you and your family on board again soon!"
My parents were flying to Egypt for the first time and booked a transfer. The driver Hema was very kind and waited for them in the arrivals area. Everything was great, and my parents were thrilled with such hospitality. It's also important to note that my parents had no phone connection, but the Hema contacted me and texted that he had met them and was taking them to the hotel. A huge thank you to Hema!!!.
"Thank you so much for this wonderful and heartwarming review! We are absolutely thrilled to hear that your parents had such a fantastic first impression of Egypt and that Hema took such great care of them. We completely understand how stressful it can be when loved ones travel without a phone connection, so we are incredibly glad Hema was able to keep you informed and provide that peace of mind. Ensuring a safe, hospitable, and stress-free journey is exactly what we aim for, and we will be sure to pass your huge thank you along to Hema. We look forward to welcoming your family on board with us again in the future!"
