Everything worked very smoothly. Our guide was friendly and efficient and had interesting information about the areas we went through.. Our driver handled the rough roads very well. The felluca ride was fun and the valley of the whales was interesting, with stunning landscape.

We had a day spare after visiting the various 'must-sees' in cairo. The Fayoum trip was a great way to experience a bit more (and a very different side) of the country. Hosni and his driver took us around in a very comfortable minibus, tailored the trip to our needs and interests. It was a bit of driving (4hrs at least) but with various stops and well worth it. The oasis was interesting - not how we imagined - so definitely learned something and you get a better idea of the desert. It's not a must do but would definitely recommend if you have time to spare. Also used Hosni as our guide to do t
