30 minutes on the Nile

The driver was on time but the experience in Felouque lasted only 30 minutes against 1 hour planned and no drink on board contrary to the tantalizing ad published and which attracted us. The return to our homeland went smoothly

Operator response

Nous vous remercions d’avoir pris le temps de partager votre retour et nous vous présentons nos sincères excuses pour cette expérience qui n’a pas été à la hauteur de vos attentes. Nous sommes heureux de savoir que le chauffeur était ponctuel et que le retour s’est bien déroulé. En revanche, nous regrettons profondément que la balade en felouque ait duré seulement 30 minutes au lieu d’une heure comme annoncé, ainsi que l’absence de boissons à bord. Cela ne correspond absolument pas à nos standards ni à ce qui est indiqué dans notre offre. Votre remarque a été transmise à l’équipe concernée afin que ce type de situation ne se reproduise plus. Nous prenons ce genre de retour très au sérieux et travaillons constamment à améliorer la qualité de nos services. Nous espérons sincèrement avoir l’occasion de vous accueillir à nouveau et de vous offrir une expérience conforme à vos attentes. Encore toutes nos excuses et merci pour votre compréhension.
