We were looking at this small group tour vs the less-expensive big bus tour options available. I'm glad we went with this small group tour. It's definitely worth the extra cost. The van can get to places that the big busses can't, and it can move around more easily and quickly. The smaller group allows the feasibility to get out of the vehicle more often to take better pictures. At a couple of stops, we saw big bus tours stop only for a couple minutes for their passengers to take pictures through the dirty windows, while we were able to stop off the van and take better pictures. And speaking of dirty windows (which I read reviews about on some of the big bus tours), the windows on our van were clean and crystal clear. Our tour guide was even cleaning them just before the tour started. We were looking at this 3-hour tour vs the full day tour. Although I'm sure the full day tour would be great for some people, we personally decided that a full day was more time than we really wanted to spend for a tour. This tour covers a lot in 3 hours. The stops were just the right amount of time. Our tour guide Mounir was very knowledgeable and friendly. We really enjoyed this tour and the tour guide, and we strongly recommend it.
