In their plan, we could choose some starting times, so I chose a plan starting at 9:00am with guide speaking Japanese. When this company contacted me, they told that a guide who speaks Japanese was not available.I accepted it. After that, their guide contacted me , and told he wants to start the tour from 7:20am(he told because places must get crowded), and told us to check out early time. Then I rejected his suggestion, but he continued to try to change my mind strongly and he told, if I wouldn’t accept his suggestion, I have to cancel their tour! Even if I did not follow his mind, I could not understand why I had to cancel my tour.That’s why I requested the company to change the guide, but they told they couldn’t do that and me to cancel the tour. Finally I had to cancel and reschedule my tour plan… Their tour price is affordable, but their offer is not trusted!
Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are truly sorry that your experience before the tour did not meet your expectations. We regret the inconvenience caused by the unavailability of a Japanese-speaking guide and the subsequent communication regarding the tour start time. While our team may occasionally recommend an earlier departure to help guests avoid crowds and make the most of the sightseeing experience, we understand that this should always be presented as an option and not as a condition for keeping the booking. We are also sorry that you felt you had no choice but to cancel and rearrange your travel plans. This is certainly not the experience we want our guests to have. Your comments have been shared with our management team so we can review our communication procedures and ensure that recommendations are conveyed more professionally and with greater flexibility. We sincerely apologize for the frustration this situation caused and appreciate your feedback, as it helps us improve our services. Kind regards, Egypt VIP Tours
