The guide Fatma is a very friendly, professional and nice travel companion – really highly recommended! However, services should be more clearly separated, in particular in the Booking Information Sheet. Inside the document are both the options actually booked and other services not booked. This can easily lead to confusion. You will receive confirmation of your own selection, but in the same list you will also see services that you have not booked at all, often with the indication “depending on the option”. My question is: Why are services listed there that are not part of your own booking? This quickly creates the impression that there is more to it than you actually booked. That was the only point that bothered me about the tour. “My tip: Take a closer look and please contact the staff. Thanks again to the staff who accompanied on this day! You are doing your job really well!” Sincerely, Eduard Horn.

An amazing day all round. A long journey by bus from sharm el Sheik but it really was worth it. Our guide (Ahmed Hassan) was incredibly knowledgeable and took some amazing photos for us. I would highly recommend!
