The trip took almost 10 hours instead of 7 hours because the driver was lost in El ghouna. He could use google map, my husband has to go and show directions to him. We couldn’t have a real break to eat a meal because what was served on the bus was a snack not even a sandwich. If it’s not possible than at the least let people buy a meal inside a bus or add this option at the booking. Where I put my feet to rest was broken

We were stopped 3 times for police check. They ask us to go out for check luggage. I never see that before. Maybe the company need to see who people buy ticcket. Because i think if normal people they don't check like this 3 times. Plus de 1h de retard.
