Once on board we were impressed by the level of technology and comfort . All buses are well sanitized and equipped with high technology , using interactive touch screens installed in the front of each seat that we found easy to activate by inserting our confirmation codes or mobile numbers . The sound system was well distributed , as were the surveillance cameras . With our mandatory masks in place , and everyone on board having been temperature checked , it was good to know that care was being taken and that social distancing procedures were being adhered to .
Upon setting off for our destination we were welcomed by our RE / MAX Tour Champion and given a riveting overview of the rich history of Egypt ’ s capital cities throughout the ages . Few countries can boast such a heritage , and we appreciated the care that had gone into the presentation . In a surprisingly quick time we found ourselves entering the New Administrative Capital , dispelling the notion that it was ‘ somewhere out there in the desert ’. It was a mere ten minutes or so from the Fifth Settlement , although in time the future phases will extend to easy reach of the Red Sea gem , Ein Sokhna .
