Magic tour to Egypt on Nov 2001(14 Nights / 15 Days).

Hi Neveen We have been back in London for two weeks now and our Egyptian experience already seems far away! Firstly, we would like to thank you for all the care and attention you gave us during our trip.  We do appreciate that you followed our progress so closely and made sure that all the arrangements went well. Cairo: Both Hanif and Nermeen were excellent - very informative and helpful in explaining all about the history and sights in Cairo.  The only adverse comment I would make is about the horse-riding.  It was an excellent choice of stables where the horses were healthy and well-fed (unlike some of them) but it was extremely expensive and we felt that Nermeen could have assisted in negotiating a more reasonable price for us.  It would have been cheaper for us to have booked through the Mena House hotel. Aswan Bishou gave us a real insight into the current political situation as well as a tremendous amount of history.  He kindly spent two hours on the boat explaining the time-line of pharoaic history so that we might better understand the temples and tombs on our trips in Upper Egypt.  He was the best of all the guides. The boat trip on the Nile Style was very enjoyable; the food and entertainment were great. Luxor Mahmud tried very hard to make sure that we had a great time in Luxor and the guide, Ghada. was also excellent.  However, Mahmud does not speak good English and we found communication somewhat difficult. The Nile Palace was an excellent choice of hotel. We have also put a review onto Trip Advisor.  Once again, many thanks for all your help.
