If you want a pleasant, very knowledgeable tour guide, Hallah aka Sugar Queen is your guide. She made our tour extra special. We learned so much about Egyptian history and greatly appreciated her passion and enthusiam. We speak only English and had no difficulty understanding her. She structured the tour to our preferences and accommodated all of our needs.
