Amazing Burning Bush - I want to say thank you to Ahmed and his team. My family (4 adults) had an amazing trip to St. Catherine's. They worked around a scheduling issue so we could see this great place. Ahmed had a plan so we could stop and stretch our legs on the ride over. His knowledge was excellent and how he shared information kept us listening. The burning bush and that whole area is full of biblical history. I have told and retold the story of our families trip to St. Catherine's. Don't forget to get some water from the well of Moses when you visit.

Efficient, comfortable and enjoyable tour experience with Ahmed of Authentic Egypt & Pyramid immersion tour - I had an enjoyable and memorable tour to St Catherine Monastery. I was part of a group of 10. The tour included stops at the Monastery store and the city of Dahab for lunch in a traditional restaurant by the Red Sea. Lunch was basic, the restaurant location was lovely but I didn't like that there were cats in the restaurant. Some guests liked and fed and pet the cats. The pick up and drop off was on schedule from my resort in Sharm El Sheikh. The weather was cool and I was glad to have been advised to have a wrap or light jacket with me. It was a long drive to and fro through the mountainous desert region therfore, I was glad that the vehicle was comfortable and air-conditioned to avoid the dust. The tour guide and driver were knowledgeable, multilingual and friendly so that they doubled as my photographers during the trip. The guide provided valuable information about the Monastery, the story of St. Catherine, the mountains in the region, biblical and cultural accounts of Moses's sojourn and other landmarks of the Sinai desert region. It made the history come alive. Note that this tour does not get you to climb Mt Sinai. Ahmed the owner of the tour company checked in often via text messages to make sure I was enjoying the trip and after I was dropped off, which I appreciated. It made me book other tours with his company when I continued my vacation in Cairo. I also found out that Ahmed is able to customize tours to fit ones interest, budget and time. I recommend this company for this and other tours in Egypt.

dissapointing - Very disappointing. The driver spent most of the time on his phone, driving fast and dangerously..I did not feel safe. We made 2 stops before the monestry . The first was meant to be 10 mins toilet stop but the guide did not return to the bus for about 30 minutes. We then stopped again and we told to go into a shop. We were not told why we stopped or for how long. We met a new guide at the monestry . He gave us very little information . Told us to visit the museum but did not say it was extra cost. He did not tell us all where to meet or at what time. When we came out of the monestry we had to wait for the driver to get fuel..this should have been done before. The guide Akma gave us no information about the area. When we arrived at the restaurant it was very rushed. I did not have time to finish my drink! Then we were told we had to visit a perfume shop. I would have liked more time at Dahab sea front We only had 15 minutes free time.
