Ahmed is a great tour guide and his German is excellent. He has a deep knowledge of the history and his passion is inspiring. After the tour through the highlights of the GEM, we visited a a flower oil shop got some mocca or Thea offered by the shop runner. His product promotion was interesting and not at all pushy. The included meal after the promotion shop was simple but very authentic and very good. I can highly recommended the tour, the guide and the operator. All well organic on time and worth the money.
