Must do experience

Simply amazing experience. Before the journey begun, Heba, the personal advisor was checking availability, and making sure everything would come as expected. By the day the journey began, there was Hassan, our private guide who have accompanied us through the whole experience. Always kind and gentle. The Ship had great food, very confortable, and the tour itself is a must do for every history’s lover

You won't regret it!

What a truly amazing experience ! It was my solo travel trip and Heba was incredibly helpful - constantly checking up on me and ensuring that I was having a good time. I felt safe and at ease with the stuff and if I had any questions or concerns they were always more than happy to help going out of their way to ensure I was satisfied. The rooms on the cruise were nice with massive windows to ensure the breathtaking views. Cabins were clean and the food was splendid. On the Monday of the cruise I added another package with her ,to see the red sea- totally a must with the breathtaking views , crystal clear waters, coral reefs and colourful fish . She was more than happy to move up Monday itinary for me which only made my experiences even more enjoyable. The stuff was friendly, well spoken and knowledgeable at all the sites. Over all very satisfactory. Definitely recommend.
