Left a bad impression. Felt like I was an inconvenient cash machine. Ihab turned up put out and irritable. Felt like he was bitching about me. 3 stars because it’s Ramadan otherwise 1. If you're alone and want in depth info/anecdotes don't bother. They will just rinse you for all you're worth and talk very loudly. Best to just book a driver. And navigate tickets etc solo. The sights were amazing. Driver was cool.
