    The driver that picked us at the hotel was amazing. Nour made our day. The museum is stunning and be prepared to pass the day there. The building is amazing, and there is plenty of restaurantes and coffee shops, with amazings options. The gift-shop of the Museum is stunning. Must visit. The driver was on time to pick us up to go to the hotel.

    Customer service was excellent! They answered promptly and were understanding of the issue and my needs as a customer. I was very happy that the local transport company agreed to change the pickup spot after I was forced to change hotels.
