Travelicious Review
Our guide in Cairo, Ahmed was knowledgeable, kind and accommodating and allowed us to tweak some of our tour sites as we wanted to shop a little, maybe a lot! The Nile cruise ship was fantastic, the staff could not do enough for us, the cabins spacious and comfortable and our guide was fun, patient, knowledgeable, honest and intuitive. Once again we felt safe and well taken care of the entire trip. Highly recommend.
