The best tour we’ve ever done - book it!

The best tour we’ve ever had, anywhere. From booking process to drop off, everything was seemless. Eissa text me on WhatsApp to let me know what time he would collect us from the hotel. Bang on time we were greeted by a private car where it was just us and Eissa (our tour guide) He was extremely informative, asked us what we wanted to see and how much of each thing. He took us to the Mosque and explained from local religions to the architecture of the mosque itself. From there we travelled to the Church where Eissa explained the artwork inside. We asked him if he could take us to a coffee shop and somewhere to get some pharmaceuticals, he helped no end. On the way home he explained the motorway system, buildings, hotels everything. Eissa, it was an exceptional private tour of Sharm el Sheik, we highly reccomend you to all our friends. Don’t hesitate - just book this trip.
