Amazing tour! Our guide Medo was not only very knowledgeable, but also funny and took lots of pictures for us. They were also flexible, since we had to be at the airport in the afternoon. Medo managed time well so we were able to see all the main sites, have lunch, visit a papyrus institute and an essence shop. It was also cheaper than all the others available both on Tripadvisor and on the hotel. Highly recommend!
Great tour!
