    I am saying that Tauck was responsible and that I felt uncomfortable with the timing of my scheduled trip back to the airport, arrangements made by Tauck. I made this apparent to the tour director. Several of us discussed it with her on the way to the hotel through 2 hours of traffic. While she was checking in and she was right there, I made my own arrangements with the concierge for the next afternoon, while the tour director called her people and canceled my ride back to the airport. She did not offer to ask the shuttle company to take us earlier or when another couple from our group was going. I thought this was not really acceptable. (To understand this, in part, you must realize that another tour company NOT TAUCK left us stranded in Egypt in Jan 2011 and we had to get ourselves to the airport during curfew and onto the last Delta flight out of Cairo. (At that time there was no credit cards, ATMs, internet, or transportation.) I am understandably gun shy about missing important flights home.)
