Absolutely the agency manager and our driver. They gave me a lot of help, they have high professional quality and sense of responsibility so that’s why they can give you high service level than others and this can hard to see in other countries where I had traveled.
I would say this trip was overall fantastic. It was one of my favorite travel memories and something I will never forget. Our tour guide Mohamed really made the trip because of his friendliness and awesome sense of humor, and well as knowledge to any questions we had about anything.
