The pros of the trip:
Cairo was amazing and the tour company let us have an hour free time at both the Pyramids and the Sphinx.
The English speaking tour guide was amazingly informed- you could tell he really had a passion for the subject and it was such a pleasure listening to him talk passionately about the city of Cairo and the history of the Egyptians.
The Nile tour was amazing- the food was also delicious, as a vegetarian though the food was limited but that is to be expected and I was fine with this.
The cons:
Some of the staff members were extremely rude and condescending- we were being told conflicting information about where each group is meant to stand depending on the language of the tour guide and one of the staff members made a really rude, childish gesture and comment as if we are children even though we were being told conflicting information. The same individual was also not presentable at all for the tour and had extremely poor hygiene, which for a 14+ hour round trip was not pleasant- he really took this tour experience down as he just seemed extremely arrogant and not professional in the slightest.
We also got picked up half an hour late which was not ideal as we were standing outside a busy road with cash alone.
