Extremely long bus rides to Luxor and other tourist/historical sites. Three plus hours each way. I question how safe it was to be driving in total darkness on the out back roadways. Maybe they should have the buses caravan together. Safety in numbers? Our lady guide to Luxor etc was EXCELLENT. The best guide we had on the trip! My second day I did a snorkel trip very near the cruise port. The sea life and coral were amazing. Excellent water visibility. I have snorkeled and scuba all around the world. The guys doing our trip needed some training. They had some very wear swimmers. One had to be towed. We had too many guests in the water to have only one guide in the water. They should have divided us into two groups and have the poor swimmers with one guide closer to the boat and good swimmers go with another guide. They had plenty of crew on the boat, but only one guide in the water actually watching too big of a group. I also felt one of the crew members was downright rude. It wasn't clear who was really the captain/boss on the boat, so I did not complain, but the guy was very lude and rude towards the single women.
