Dmitry,
We went with our family to Egypt via Taba. Everything was perfect: the driver arrived on time, the car was clean, the air conditioning worked perfectly (which is important in such heat). We got there calmly, without any fuss. We walked to the checkpoint in about five minutes, and crossed the border without any problems. Thank you for providing a child seat โ a special plus for that.

Leila,
I don't speak Hebrew, so I was glad that the order could be made in Russian and that the driver spoke English. A very convenient way to get to Taba - no transfers, no extra stress. The trip was great, and the route through the desert itself was impressive!

Boris,
I used to think that to get to Taba you have to go through Eilat and somehow cross the border there. But here - I got in the car in Jerusalem, 5 hours later I was at the crossing. The driver is experienced, knows the road, drove confidently. I asked to stop at the observation point - he did not refuse. Good service, I recommend.
