I took this tour and had an amazing time. My train got in late and I was limited on time and initially I was worried I would not be able to get to the sites I wanted to see. Hany was my guide and Eslam was my driver and they were beyond amazing coordinating things and making sure I got to all the places I wanted to. Oh, and the sites were amazing. I would highly recommend this tour.
