Excursion que je recommande à 100%, visite du King Tut Museum, visite de la mosquée et de la cathédrale et si vous cherchez des souvenirs à ramener pour la famille, la dernière étape se fait au Nile Pharaon, avec explication du Papyrus et temps libre pour acheter souvenirs pas chers. Guide : Milad Merhoz (FR/ENG) à recommander

We were advised to wear appropriate clothing for the mosque visit but we were told “it was an empty building with a carpet for praying” so please look and take photos of the outside The Remainder of the trip was ok.

We loved the stops at the church and the mosque, however after these stops the trip took a turn and it just felt like we were been taken into shops made to feel uncomfortable and buy. There were far too many stops where we were herded into stores and uncomfortably having products we had no interest in flung into our faces. We ended up getting a taxi back early just because of how fed up we were of every stop being a shop with no real chance to explore the actual city streets.

L'église était jolie. Pour le reste, on n'a pas pu entrer ds la mosquée car c'était l'heure de la prière puis il y a eu 2 arrêts shopping... nous sommes rentrés plus tôt car le shopping ne nous intéressait pas et nous avions déjà visité de long en large le vieux marché. Nous n'avons du coup pas vu le musée. Si nous avions su que c'était principalement du shopping, nous n'aurions pas choisi cette excursion.

The whole trip was a wonderful insight and Sam the guide was fabulous and very knowledgeable. The only thing I would say is we did not need the first shop stop. The market and the other stops were great.

La nostra guida Hassan ci ha veramente saputo fare! È molto istruita, parla correttamente italiano, si è preso cura di noi e delle nostre necessità per ogni tappa passo dopo passo. Grazie Hassan!

Very good... Confused why my voucher said 130pm pick up from hotel and then it was 240pm which made us late for our evening meal. Ragy and the driver was very good and informative in our group Thankyou

Omar (la nostra guida) è stato straordinario e parlava un italiano perfetto. Purtroppo nella moschea non si poteva entrare, il negozio dei papiri ci ha deluso, ci hanno fatto spendere più del dovuto per cose che si trovano a molto meno anche nei negozi di Sharm. Museo carino ma sono riproduzioni.

The mini bus was as promised air conditioned which was a must in the middle day heat. Our tour guide Hussein was very knowledgeable and very friendly. We enjoyed the visits to the mosques and church were brief but enough to have a look around and take some photos. We were never under pressure to get moving or leave but the heat ment the group naturally wanted to get back to the bus The two shop visits were again no pressure to buy which was a big win for the trip.

The trip was great. At 20£ I didn't expect to much from the day, but it was amazing and informative. The mosque and church are stunning. We didn't get to go inside the mosque as it was Ramadan, but the outside was stunning. Shopping was fun also. I got some lovely oud and souvenirs for family and friends.

This should be sold as a 'shopping' trip. The alleged museum is an exhibition of copy articles from King Tuts tomb in a shopping centre. Like going to see copies of the crown jewels in the Trafford Centre - don't get me wrong they are good and it is well presented. There is then 20-25 mins at a Mosque and Church totalling 60-90 mins inc travel. Next the shopping begins before the Old Town which is nice and the Mosque is stunning. 30% tour & 70% shopping. Not great but good value.

Osama was the most amazing and friendly guide. Throughout the tour he impressed with his knowledge of all the areas visited. The areas visited were outstanding, I cannot recommend this tour highly enough.

Our guide Hussan was excellent from the minute we got on coach till our return... Funny plus lots of information and liked you to ask questions..... The mosque was so beautiful.... The old and new..... The church inside was amazing the paintings on the walls blew my mind! Like the sistine chapel in Rome.... Time to shop in a cheap pre priced souvenir shop which was nice, then visit to a oil and herb shop ( if you wanted to go in, no pressure to buy) time in the old market, all beautiful at night

It was great to leave the hotel. Learnt about the history of the city.. The museum tour was great. Visited a beautiful church but didn't visit the Mosque considering it was branded as a Mosque tour, I understand if it is not possible.. We had three shopping experiences there were ok. I found the shops near the hotel were a lot cheaper so watch out for this hype.

Hussain was an excellent guide; very friendly and knowledgeable with excellent English. The driver Mohammed was great and the vehicle lovely and cool, clean and well maintained. The tour itself was really interesting and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to others.

The guides were amazing. I felt well informed and looked after as a lone female traveller so thank you and I’d be happy to recommend you to other holiday makers.

The guide waa very knowledgable. The sites were amazing, shame we couldnt go inside the mosque but the church was beautiful, the shop they took you too was very well stocked for all your aoiveniera and gifts to take home not pushy at all and well priced. The shops in old town market are very persistent teying to get you to go in and buy something.

We were amazingly lucky becouse we received a gentleman speaking Polish and a private tour. Just 3 of us. Moscov was amazing the same as church. The "museum" was in city center and did not represent any Real egyptian artifacts. But Who cares it looked good and pictures look even better. The high light was our tutor Who answeared all our questions and feed us back about the history of egypt and sharm el sheikh as well as they tradition and Religion. Overall amazing really cheap for the price.

The hotel was brilliant, the room, food and staff being exceptional. The only thing that mars any journey involving flights is the amount of time spent at airports (not your fault).

Très belles mosquée et église. Le musée, ce ne sont que des copies, mais ça reste intéressant. Attention, pas indiqué dans la description, mais il faut se déchausser pour entrer dans la mosquée et les femmes doivent porter le foulard. 2 arrêts attrape-touristes dans un magasin de papyrus et autres babioles et d'aromathérapie. Inutile, mais hélas incontournable. Pas précisé non plus, mais le tour a lieu l'après-midi et en soirée. J'aurais voulu partir plus tôt et avoir du temps libre à Old Market

Very informative tour guide. Friendly and welcoming. We learnt so much about Egypt, people, history and culture. Highly recommend this excursion. Wonderful 10/10

Voor deze halve dag hadden we geluk met een prima gids, een echte entertainer. We kregen vanaf de start al interessante wetenswaardigheden voorgeschoteld en bezochten achtereenvolgens een Moskee (jammer genoeg enkel buiten!), een kerk, het TutAnchAmon museum, een lokale Sultan shop, nog een Moskee (ook binnen) en tenslotte enkele straten met winkeltjes. Soukhs kan je ze niet noemen, die uitstraling hebben ze niet. We leerden veel bij over Egypte, Sharm-El-Sheikh, politiek, religie en traditie.

I relaxed afternoon out visiting a number of places. Our guide was fantastic and gave us lots of extra information as we went. We visited the cathedral and mosque as well as a herb and souvenir shop. At the shops we were under no pressure to buy and prices were very reasonable. We were also given free time to go round the shops on our own.

Alle bezienswaardiger werden afgeraffeld. Ze hadden overduidelijk haast. In de moskee, de kerk en het museum kregen we 20 minuten en na een kwartier werd er gezegd dat de tijd bijna om was. In de winkels kregen we alle tijd die nodig was.

Very good trip, I learnt a little history too, MoMo was very Knowledgeable and we got good shopping time... only thing I would like to add, would be nice to arrange a snack at a little extra cost as its a long day and nothing to eat unless we buy ourselves, but other than that brilliant

The guide did a great job of educating us on sharm el sheikh, Tutankhamen, Egypt etc. I even enjoyed the trip to mr herbs (some grumbled about it) as learnt a lot about different teas, herbs and aromatic oils. Brought a few different teas back with me and I’m looking forward to trying!

We didn’t see much of the sights and the old town was just a lot of souvenirs shops with people hassling. Overall this experience wasn’t worth the money we paid, maybe the children can go free or pay a lot less as a single parent this wasn’t worth it

The visit to the herb place and the Papyrus place were just thinly veiled attempts to make you buy stuff and added nothing to the tour. The visit to the new “old market” was a bit of a waste of time too. The whole trip was just too long. We were ready to come home after the visit to the market, but had to endure the remainder of the tour.

Sharm el sheikh city, mosque & museum covers sights such as the sahaba mosque, Heavenly Church & old Egypt. They also take you to a spice, oil and herbs shop, ornaments shop and give free time to shop in the old Egypt Market. The tour rep Mr Mahmood was brilliant, he was informative, knowledgeable, great English speaking, gave plenty of time and opportunities for people to browse, take pictures & allowed breaks when required

We were brought to Mr Herbs which was not on out itinerary. If it was we wouldn't have gone. We booked a tour. Not a hard sell. We were in there for half hour and given a hard sell on stuff we had zero interest in. Very annoying. We thought we were safe with Tui away from bloody sellers but nope. The stuff he was selling was literally a quarter of the price next door too. Disgraceful. And our tour guide got annoyed when we didn't buy anything

Mohammed was amazing. Full of knowledge. So much to see and do. I would have liked more time at Soho as I didn't know what to expect but we had to get back for evening meal. Maybe start the tour an hour earlier.

The tour lacked a little bit of structure and didn’t detail the overall length of the trip. A little more attention to the mosque in old town Sharm El Sheikh would have been welcome.
