In February, we had a family vacation in Sharm el-Sheikh and I want to express my gratitude to Habib, the guide of the Goona Travel company. He literally "made" our vacation. We were able to see Egypt not from the tourist side. I am a travel agent, and I have a lot of experience communicating with guides in different countries. Therefore, I would like to mention several advantages of Khabib and his company.:
- Individual approach. We went on 2 excursions in a comfortable car. To Cairo and Dahab. We saw places that your tour operator's tour bus would never take you to. In Cairo, the route was literally "on the go" and it was incredibly cool.
- Cultural code. Khabib has been living in Egypt for 5 years, he is from Russia. Russian russians, and now imagine that they tell you about the life of the locals, draw parallels with life in Russia, and all this is not in broken Russian, but in their native and very rich Russian language. I wouldn't even call our trips excursions, it was more like meeting a friend who is distinguished by oriental hospitality and high culture.
- honesty. Khabib did not take us to shops and factories, did not convince us to choose additional routes. On the contrary, he told us how to save money, which tricks of the locals it is better not to fall for.
- Punctuality and comfort. Pick up on time, stop where we were asked, turn off where we wanted to. Here it is a service, it is from such small things that impressions are formed not only from the day spent, but also from the entire trip to another country as a whole.
We were traveling with my husband and teenage daughter. My daughter celebrated her birthday on one of her trips with Khabib, and she had a very bright day. Thanks to Habib's acquaintances and personal connections with the locals, he was able to fulfill our daughter's wishes, which pleasantly surprised him.
I'll tell you a secret, he's also a great photographer, because he took the coolest photos on our trips))) I added some photos I took on trips with a Goona travel guide. Thank you again for our trip.
Private excursions at the Goon are aerobatics! The guide from Dagestan, a young guy, initially went with him to Cairo for a day trip, but we liked it so much that we stayed in Cairo for 2 nights. He showed us all the tourist and non-tourist places, rode for 12 hours a day, no sales in our direction from the guide. He works with his soul, gives his best at 1000%. We didn't even think that this trip would be so interesting. We originally planned to fly to Cairo by plane, but there were 3 of us and the price was around $ 550. And the tour itself is very fast, you will only have time to see the pyramids and the museum, and in goa we paid $ 450 for the first day of the trip and for each subsequent one + $ 250. For the whole car! But we got a thousand times more impressions. I definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to get maximum service and see the real Egypt! Many thanks to you, you are the best!
We would like to express our deep gratitude to our guide Habib. We went to Cairo for 2 days from Sharm el Sheikh. A very impressive trip. Habib picked us up from the hotel, and we got to Cairo very quickly. A very pleasant, sociable, kind young man. I was impressed with my knowledge of the Arabic language, and I organized everything at the highest level. We are still continuing to communicate with him and are already planning new excursions upon our return to Egypt.
