Such delays do not affect the tour content or duration. Therefore, they cannot be considered grounds for cancellation, and no refund will be made if cancellation is requested.

If the guest is late, and if the tour flow is not affected, it is at the discretion of our staff to wait a reasonable amount of time or continue. Otherwise, the guest may continue the tour by reaching the next point on their own or return to the hotel on their own. In this case, no refund will be made.
3- **YOU ARE UNDER OUR GUARANTEE:** The vehicles, restaurants, menus, venues, staff, and all other services used in our tours are the best based on price/quality balance and our long years of experience in Egypt; all of them have International Tourism Standards and are certified by the Egyptian Authorities. In our tours and activities, if any incomplete and/or defective service occurs, since your time in Egypt with us is continuously monitored by our company, the problem is resolved by immediate intervention and/or, depending on the problem, a partial or full refund is made. For discounted packages, the discount is deducted from the price and the net amount paid is refunded.
However, our company cannot be held responsible for conditions depending on Egypt’s local and general circumstances, traffic, road closures, bad weather, guest error, delays due to technical failures, and similar situations beyond our control.

Our company cannot be held responsible for any negative outcomes that may occur. When participating in such tours and activities, make sure you are aware of these risks; if in doubt, please ask our authorized staff for information. If you are still unsure, do not complete the purchase. When participating in such tours and activities, please strictly follow the warnings of our authorized staff, strictly follow the safety measures given to you, and wear the safety equipment provided depending on the situation.
