This was one of the best tours that we took while in Egypt. Our guide Abdul was very thorough in his explanations of the temples and even went step by step explaining each of the hieroglyphics. We literally got a detailed insight of how life was in Egypt during the times of these areas. I would definitely recommend this tour to others and especially the guide Abdul.
