Die Abu simpel Tour war sehr informativ und beeindruckend. Insbesondere der Nachmittag mit unsere Guide Hany hat uns gut gefallen! Hany macht jede Tour zu einem besondere Abenteuer und zeigt einem die schönsten Ecken der Gegend. Für uns war Hany nicht nur ein Guide sondern ein ganz besonders toller Mensch, den wir hier kennen lernen konnten und der uns nicht nur herumgeführt hat sondern einen spannenden Einblick in die Welt des alten und des neuen Ägyptens gegeben hat. Wir hatten immer viel Freiraum und es wurde flexibel auf unsere Wünsche eingegangen. Die besten Fotos sind tatsächlich auch durch Hany entstanden :D

Ich würde jedem empfehlen die Tour mit Hany zu machen es war mit ihm als wäre man mit einem Freund unterwegs gewesen und nicht nur ein Gast auf einer Tour! Sehr empfehlenswert!
