Best introduction to Hurghada - Guide Eslam and driver Hassan were both polite and kind. I had the most interesting 3 hours talking to Eslam about Hurghada's history, it's people and fun facts. Ask lots of questions to make the most of the experience. Visit during day for beautiful blue sea and less crowds, or in the evening for lights and fun night life. Recommend this for all visitors as guide will cater to your preferences just mention at the beginning of tour. Thank you again for the warm reception and wonderful time!

Wonderful trip - Lovely tour all thanks to our wonderful guide Mahmoud. He was so friendly and chatted with us a lot. We saw the Marina, fish market( not my fav) the Mosque and papirus museum. He explained a lot to us and answered all our questions. If you want to know and see their lifestyle please book this tour with confidence. Transport came right in time and the driver was really good.

He helped us on contracting when we did shopping and he took us to a nice cafe where we have drunk the best mango juice. The guide and the driver were on time and they respected tour program with no problems.

Hurghada City Tour - Emad and his driver picked me up promptly at my hotel, gave me a tour of the city, took me to see some of the top sights in Hurghada including the Marina, Fish Market, and Mosque. Then they took me to the Juice House for a refreshing drink. Perfect after being in the sun.

Interesting - Trip was interesting. The mosque is amazing but strict with the rules. Be prepared with correct clothes. We was successful with shopping but it is also a sales trip. Amr and Monir was kind. Not serious at the first sight but natives and very sympathetic.
