"I liked the opportunity to be able to get to know ‘real’ Egyptians, which is what being with a private guide and driver in Cairo afforded me. They were very friendly and open about their lives and their thoughts, so that I felt that I was getting a glimpse into the life of the people and the culture, rather than just being led around to all the ‘sights’. I think this opportunity made a real difference to my experience of the country. I felt that I was in good hands the whole time." - M. Umali
