“I did not get the cruise I selected and paid for. There was supposed to be belly dancing as entertainment. There was no entertainment at all! I purposely chose not to go to a belly dance show off ship because there was supposed to be a performance on ship. So I missed that opportunity. My guide even seemed puzzled about the lack of the entertainment. The food was awful and very little to no Egyptian food offered. What Egyptian food offered was bland. Thank goodness I had traveled a week by myself without a tour group before the cruise or else I would have missed all the incredible food there…”

I think he is the best possible guide one can ask for. Even the driver was very good. Without Alibaba, we wouldn't have enjoyed the tour to this extent. Excellent work”
