Dahab all in one tour with a visit to salama canyon area.

November 18, 2021

We just finished our tour to Dahab and blue hole with our guide Ahmed. My friends and I really enjoyed our guide’s knowledge about all the sites we saw during our trip. He was the sweetest! We never felt rushed and since we took along time at certain spots she accommodated what we really want to see so we had plenty of time during our day. Thank you again! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!!

Me and my friends picked a one day Cairo trip by bus from Sharm el shekh. The experience was very nice, from the beginning and up to the end. Our guide, Ahmed, was very knowledgeable and friendly with us – he made sure that all our questions received appropriate answers and his English skills are great. Trip to the pyramids is an experience that you should not miss!
