Spectacular

My long awaited trip to Egypt and the Nile was a dream come true, and above and beyond my expectations. Made extra special by our Guide Ahmed, his knowledge as an Egyptologist added so much more to every excursion we did. A wonderful enriching experience of a lifetime.

胡夫金字塔一日游

导游们都很亲切。关于当地的历史文化几乎无所不知。我们能从时间上的安排和高效率的工作态度中看出他们对这一份行业的热诚和专职。 The guides were really friendly and well versed with Cairo‘s culture and historical background. There was nothing we could complain about the trip. All was well planned.
