Lovely guide Eissa took us round a number of key sites in Sharm. His knowledge was extensive and his English command was superb. An excellent value tour with super communication and well organised. Would have been better if we could have been allowed to enter the mosques like we did with the church but appreciate it wasn't possible. Thank you.

5 out of 5 Eissa was our guide for this interesting tour. He communicated arrival time in advance and was punctual on the day of the tour. Eissa is very knowledgeable about the history of Sharm el Sheikh and explained it's development while we were travelling to see the sites. Our first stop was the Mustafa mosque. Here Eissa explained the basic tenets of Islam and we admired the beautiful building. Our next stop was the Coptic Heavenly cathedral with it's marvellous paintings and stained glass. Eissa explained the significance of the images within the church and their relation to Christianity. Our last stop was to see the magnificent exterior of the al-Sahsba mosque with it's ornate architecture. We then went for a brief visit to a perfume and herb shop. Then came a lunch break, after which we were taken back to our hotel. It was a thoroughly enjoyable half day tour which is highly recommended. Thanks Eissa for making it so memorable.
Thank you so much for the lovely review. It means a lot We can’t wait to welcome you back one day ✨
The title says it all. The tour was a delight. Everything went smoothly, in a friendly and caring fashion and the comments and exchanges were interesting, pertinents and right to the point. Plus it's a great start to discuss and arrange other activities in and around the city.

A great guided tour of Sharm. Ahmed our guide was knowledgeable, charming and great fun to spend a few hours with. His young driver was a good guy as well. We were picked up from our hotel on time and whisked off to view with Christian cathedral, two mosques and then finally the main market bazaar. We were told all about the history of Sharm el Sheikh, its relationship to the rest of Egypt, its religions and its people. I would definitely recommend this tour company. One to one service and all at a great price. It was a great alternative to setting on a sun lounger for an afternoon. Go for it!
