Sheik Sayed grand mosque and Palace

Pick up was on time and they provide water for the trip. They also make sure to stop for bathroom breaks. All of the stops were very enjoyable. The Sheik Sayed grand mosque is one everyone should visit. It entails walking a bit so be prepared but it is a site to see.
