A small but meaningful time
It was a simple but fun excursion. The museum may be small but it has a truly amazing amount of artifacts from not only the ancient Egyptian era, but also Greek, Roman, and Ottoman times as well as a small section dedicated to the Bedouins.
It must be mentioned that the guide was wonderful. Unfortunately, she wasn’t allowed to give full explanations of the exhibits, but the information that was given was great.

Very good, only small things here and there.
I would have gone 4.5 if I could have, it was really good but not perfect.
The tour guide was great, friendly, and knowledgeable!
We started by going to the Sharm El Sheikh Museum which was great. Entry is EGP 200 each, you need to pay for you and your guide. My guide explained a few things but never came into the actual museum part with me, they remained in the cafe waiting for me.
The museum was good, all the signs were in both Arabic and English, so easy to understand, with a lot of cool artefacts.
On the way to the Al-Sahaba Mosque, we did stop at the drivers friends shop and I was usherd inside to make a purchase. Hence the missing what would be half star.
All in all, very good, very friendly, very informative and a good experience.

Nice experience
It was a good tour. We spent most time at the museum, which I preferred. The guide was helpful and attentive. The old market and the mosque were also amazing.
