Tour change for desert closure

We had to change the tour because on the day we had chosen the desert would have been closed to tourists for safety reasons as it was also a national holiday (April 25th). We had been notified a day before and together we opted for another type of visit. We went to the center of sharm where we could visit two mosques, a Christian church and visit Old Market for some shopping. The guide has always been at our side and has also proved very patient despite our endless stops in the various souvenirs. The desert might have been more interesting but I would definitely book with this tour operator again!

Very nice family experience if the daughter is into horse riding.

We enjoyed this as family (son 10 yrs, daughter 11 yrs) of which only daughter (good) and mother (little) had riding experience. As a nice side effect, the organisation also makes pictures, even a small video that you can (no obligation) buy immediately afterwards if wanted. Even a riding dummy as myself can ride those horses. Only thing to mention that I could have done without was the quads that start more or less at the same place, but it was OK when riding.

Skinny horses,too many Atvs

The people were friendly and obliging.The horses welfare needs attention.They were underweight and all had skin conditions.The tack needs an upgrade.There was no overt cruelty but the horses could be in better condition.I am a vet and I suspect the skin is allergy and not parasite related .Too many Atv's and dirty environment littered with plastic
