Communication and Organization Issues
Despite the overall positive experience on the food tour in Cairo, there were some communication and organization issues that affected our enjoyment of the tour.
We received numerous WhatsApp messages from the tour organizer, which initially seemed helpful. However, there was a lack of clarity in these messages, especially when it came to the change in tour timing due to Ramadan. We felt confused and unsure about the new schedule.
During the tour, there was also a lack of clear explanations and communication from the organizer. We were left with unanswered questions and felt rushed as we tried to keep up with the group. It was disappointing to feel pressured and hustled instead of being able to fully enjoy the experience.
Improved communication and organization would greatly enhance the overall quality of the tour.
