A review from December 2024 praises the tour’s attention to detail:

Excellent service - The driver and guide were very nice. The guide was knowledgeable and shared information about the two temples. I would like to make special mention of the driver who found my hat and some money and medication in the car that had been accidentally left behind. He organised a friend to deliver them to us. This is important because we had moved to Hurghada by that time and the driver went out of his way to find someone going to the new city so they could be dropped off. This is over and above what I would expect. I highly recommend both the guide and the driver but especially recommend the driver. (Reviewed at: 2024-12-21)
