Mega was incredibly well educated on Egypt’s history & all the sights. He gave the info in a very easy to understand way. He was very helpful & went out of his way to help with problems or special requests. Ramy was friendly & accommodating & made our time in Dahab very enjoyable!

Sam + Ramy are wonderful tour guides who go out of their way to make our trip as comfortable as possible and really put our needs above their own. The knowledge that they have and pass on to us during our visit to the sites made my trip awesome! Thanks guys! This trip pushed some of my personal boundaries and I am forever grateful. Thoroughly enjoyed every moment on this trip! Definitely recommend Egypt to everyone that will listen!

Fantastic tour. Sam is very knowledgeable, approachable, passionate and entertaining. Ramy was very accommodating to all members in arranging activities, nothing is too challenging for him. Travel Talk guides on previous tours have been excellent (Barish) and these guys are the same. Thanks for an amazing tour.
