点评:I went on a trip from Cairo to Siwa with Compass. It's the worst travel company in Egypt I've ever dealt with on my 19 trips there.
When we left Cairo, one member of our group was left behind and had to arrange a city-to-city uber-like car to take her on the 8-hour drive to Siwa.
In Siwa, stuff kept going wrong. For example, they told us to meet in the hotel lobby for our tour at a certain time and then kept us waiting an hour before the bus finally came.
More than once, I heard Mohab the agency representative talking rudely and disrespectfully to our tour group leader.
We were told that on our way back to Cairo, we'd make a stop in Mersa Matrouh to see the famous beaches, but once we got underway we were told that there "wasn't time" to make the stop that we had been promised.
Some of us needed a restroom break on the north coast highway, so the bus pulled into a rest stop. Five of us got off to use the toilet. There were only 3 stalls, and I had the misfortune to be the 5th one able to get into a stall. I hurried as fast as I could, but when I came out I saw the bus pulling away preparing to enter the highway. Even though I'm 67 years old and mobility impaired, I did my best to run behind the bus waving my arms and screaming for it to stop. The people who had been sitting near me were screaming for the bus to stop, and finally it did just before entering the highway. I was so exhausted from running I could barely get on, and my heart was pounding. It seems Mohab the agency representative couldn't be bothered to count the number of people who got off and back on. Nor could he be bothered to count to make sure that all 30 people were on board before pulling away,
The hotels that Compass arranged were nice. And the tour guide in Siwa was excellent.
I love Egypt, and I want to go back to Siwa. But I won't ever use Compass again.
翻译:我和 Compass 一起从开罗去了锡瓦。这是我在埃及 19 次旅行中遇到的最差的旅行社。
我们离开开罗时,我们团里的一名成员被留在了那里,不得不安排一辆类似 Uber 的城市间汽车送她前往锡瓦,车程 8 小时。
在锡瓦,事情总是出错。例如,他们让我们在某个时间在酒店大堂集合,然后让我们等了一个小时,直到巴士终于来了。
我不止一次听到旅行社代表 Mohab 粗鲁无礼地和我们的旅行团领队说话。
我们被告知,在返回开罗的途中,我们会在梅尔萨马特鲁停留,看看著名的海滩,但一旦我们上路,就被告知“没有时间”停留,因为我们承诺过要停留在那里。
我们中的一些人需要在北海岸高速公路上上厕所,所以巴士停在了一个休息站。我们五个人下车去上厕所。只有 3 个隔间,我很不幸成为第 5 个能进入隔间的人。我尽可能快地赶路,但当我出来时,我看到巴士开走了,准备进入高速公路。尽管我已经 67 岁了,行动不便,但我还是尽力跑在巴士后面,挥舞着手臂,大喊着让它停下来。坐在我附近的人大喊着让巴士停下来,最后它在进入高速公路前停了下来。我跑得太累了,几乎无法上车,我的心怦怦直跳。看来代理机构代表 Mohab 懒得数一数下车和上车的人数。他也没有在开走前数一数,以确保所有 30 个人都上了车,
Compass 安排的酒店都很好。锡瓦的导游很棒。
我爱埃及,我想再去锡瓦。但我再也不会使用 Compass 了。
