Kamlia Wiliam

I was travelling from Sharm to Cairo for an 8 hours visit of the city.  My driver was Ahmed and the guide was Mina, which was all organised by Kamlin. The bus arrived two hours ahead of schedule but they were very accommodating and came two hours before our arranged meeting time with absolutely no fuss. The guide was waiting  right outside the bus on arrival.  Everything that I wanted to do and see was made possible by both these wonderful men. I was able to visit the pyramid of Giza, the sphynx by camel ride, lunch on the Nile, private boat ride on the Nile and museum. The market was closed due to official visit from the Vietnamese President which they worked around meaning that I didn't miss out on anything. When the market was finally opened, they asked me whether I wanted to go and visit it but I was worried that I would miss my return bus therefore I declined. We stopped at a few shops such as Egyptian cotton, souvenir, scent and authentic paper making although I'm not keen on stopping in those location. They were the best as the staff did not hassle you to buy anything which was great as I'm not too keen on that, additionally everything was authentic which might not be the case in the market. It was a pleasant experience and Mina brought the city to life as he was a very knowledgeable guide with years of experience.
