All looked promising with a small deposit taken until the afternoon before we were due to travel. Company then contacted us to say the trip was not possible the direct routes from Marsa Alam - Edfu and El Quesir-Qift are not accessible to tourists. Instead the route is via Safaga giving a total return driving time of 18 hours without any stops! It seems that this has been the situation for a long time so the trip should not have been offered. Quick refund made but hardly makes up for the disappointment.
