The tour of a lifetime! Emman, our guide, was efficient, with excellent English, and vast knowledge which she communicated in an interesting way. Instead of simply a list of facts and dates, she told stories of the thousands of years of Egyptian history. She was patient and had a sense of humor. The camel did not make me feel comfortable. I didn’t know how high they are and how wide the saddle is, but survived! We left with vibrant memories of the pyramids against a bright blue sky, now in our hearts. Joseph, our young driver, was where and when needed. Well done from start to finish!
