Special mention to our tour guide Sam. He was exceptional! He was very good with communication, he has a great sense of humour, he explained each site with great detail and the biggest thing for me was I'm celiac and he catered for every meal for me, so i was very appreciative. The Egypt tour has been awesome. Thank you Travel Talk for the awesome experience.
