These sites are beautiful. Our booking and information for transport from our hotel to airports, tickets for the planes, and entry to the parks was SEAMLESS. I was nervous having booked on Viator for the first time, but and so happy with the service. #lifelongcustomeracheived.
Our guide Ismaeel was AMAZING. He was experienced about the area and very conscious getting us to each location before it got to hot, or too crowded. He suggested the best shaded spots for us the be comfortable, while maximizing our time at each place.
He very politely, suggested two additional places to stop to shop... great spots to browse but also relax out of the sun while learning and looking around. I bought a beautiful Turkish stone ring, a wonderful momento from our trip.
Both Ismaeel, and the drivers during our trip knew all of our names at arrival and made us feel like them really wanted us to have a good time.
I took a star away only because the 4am pick up time was so hard, and there was plenty of time to get us to the airport at the end of the day. We killed more time shopping so that we were not to early for the 8pm flight back. Also Heiropolis in July is HOT. Ismaeel offered us shade from his umbrella, but I wish I knew to bring our own misting umbrella... it felt like a nessisity.
