The stop at Senzo Mall was a fantastic addition: we had plenty of time to explore the shops without feeling rushed. The driver was very courteous, provided helpful tips, and was always punctual. The ride from the hotel to the marina was another highlight. The route was well chosen, allowing us to enjoy the beautiful surroundings. Communication was clear and straightforward, and the entire organization felt highly professional. We felt safe and well taken care of throughout all transfers. Overall, a first-class experience that I can highly recommend to everyone! Der gesamte Transfer-Service war hervorragend organisiert und hat meine Erwartungen übertroffen.

Wir haben uns während der gesamten Transfers sicher und gut betreut gefühlt. Insgesamt eine erstklassige Erfahrung, die ich jedem weiterempfehlen kann!Posted on TripadvisorVerified Mohammed is amazing. I had found this company online a week before heading to Hurghada. From the get go they were priced very reasonably compared to even the hotel and within price ranges that were acceptable according to ChatGPT, as we needed transport from the airport to the hotel. Well to my surprice this is when we met Mohammed. This man is gold, never in my whole travel have a met someone so genuine friendly, trustworthy and above any expectation. He is one of those rare people who truly are looking to give you the best experience and not trying to rip you off. From here we kept his contact information and we would check withbhim pricing on excursions and was happy he would take us and we basically had our own private chauffeur for the week. Wthout a doubt if I go back to Hurghada I would definitely use Mohammed again. We did a private trip to cairo, luxor and a few outings tongo shopping and eat local food in hurghada. Thank you Mhammed for making this trip amazingPosted on TripadvisorVerified Wonderful 2 day trip to Cairo We booked a 2 day trip to Cairo from Hurghada. Easy pick-up from our Hotel and drive to the airport, could take the already booked flight to Cairo in the morning. Arrived in Cairo, got picked up by a friendly driver in front of the airport and brought to our hotel (Mazar Pyramids Hotel). From there our arranged guide met us and together with the driver we visited Saqqara, a carpet factory, and the pyramids of Gizeh on the first day plus a pre-arranged lovely lunch at a traditional little restaurant. The guide was well informed, spoke English as well as German, and could give a lot of insights as well as care about us the entire time. In the evening we returned to the hotel, which had a lovely rooftop restaurant with great view of the pyramids and good food. Only negative would be if you are a light sleeper, the street nearby is still quite loud even at night time. After a lovely breakfast in the morning, our guide and driver picked us up and on the second day we visited the old and new archeological museums, a Coptic church as well as old Cairo, while having lunch in-between (already paid for). In the end our driver drove us back to Cairo airport and we returned to Hurghada, whre we got picked up from the airport directly and driven back to our hotel. Great 48 hour trip, can recommend to everyone who wants to get the most out of 2 days Cairo from Hurghada!Posted on TripadvisorVerified Cairo day trip Excellent experience had no issues as it was our first time doing a excursion, made us feel comfortable and kept in touch with the information needed, answered all questions quickly and was on time, could not fault 5 starts, great service and great prices, thanksPosted on TripadvisorVerified Hurghada airport transfer Returned after a few years away.
