Rhodes/Turkey:Scam

Many lies: Extras to be paid in cash. From 249 € we went to 1500 € per person. Non-maintained hotels do not deserve the 4 stars. I had bothered to ask if there was a heated pool inside for the free week. I was told yes: Lying. Pamoukalea is dried by the thermal baths. You have to pay 30 € if you want to go up there... to see nothing. FVF does not support input because the increase is too great. We were not warned that the Orthodox Passover was staggered and that everything was closed that weekend (including buses). The "guide" of the free week: transparent. To each question asked, he answered; address FVF... Anyway... I am very disappointed as well as my travel companions and do not recommend this trip. Only consolation: the group was friendly as well as the hotel staff.

All very well planned....

All very well planned. From picking me up at my hotel in cairo to being dropped off again, everything worked like clockwork. The 5 star hotel in aswan, very nice. The sites visited are amazing. I have no complaints, on the contrary, my congratulations.

10 hour airport standby,,

It was a wonderful view and all the ruins were amazing. But after 14:00 we were dropped off at the airport and left outside the airport until the 10pm flight. When you make a reservation, you should check your schedule details and cancel if you have a long wait to get to your flight. By the way, the airport is small and you can only get inside two hours ago, so you have to wait forever. And the airplanes have a high rate of delay. We were three hours late, so we had to wait ten hours. Please be sure to check your flight time when booking!

Aswan and Luxor

This was an excellent tour. Our guide Samir was excellent on the first day and Abu Simbel and Aswan were incredible. Guide was very knowledgeable and built in stops for food and souvenirs. We booked our own hotel in Aswan and were picked up the next morning. Salsa was our guide the second day and she was very good as well as we toured Luxor and the Valley of the Kings. Excellent tour to see as much as possible. Our driver was Mohammed both days and he was extremely kind and made our experience better.
