Eissa was extremely friendly, always available, and very knowledgeable: he adapted the pace and explanations to our family’s needs, making the tour enjoyable for everyone. His professionalism, kindness, and passion for his work made this day truly special. We highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to experience Sharm El Sheikh in an authentic and personalized way.

The tour was amazing and our guide Essaia was really kind and well prepared 😊. We visited two mosques, the Coptic Orthodox Church and the old market. Beyond the beauty of these places, Essaia’s explanations made everything even more interesting. Highly recommended!

Great

The tour guide was amazing, lovely guy! Took us around to see many places in Shalm which were wonderful. Unfortunately when we went to the shops, we were told they’d be fixed prices here, but the prices for things were more than what it would be back in the UK. A shop called Valentino quoted us £20 for a wallet but after we paid in Egyptian(£) we later saw he changed the price and it ended up being £37. Just be aware when buying things because they can put whatever price they want.
