Thank you Nour! What a great day

I booked this trip with my boyfriend as a nice break away from our hotel in Sharm el Sheikh. Nour looked after us for the day and was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. He even took lots of photos of us at each attraction making sure we captured each moment for our memory books. This was a nice added touch and really appreciated! He also answered our fifty million questions and was a great guide. Highly recommend and will definitely reach out to him when we come back to Egypt for more trips!
