Waste of time - I expected that it will be entry to musuems but it was just walking about outside. The souk and abra and food and tastings. The souk was supposed to be fun but it was not. Its better you walk around by yourself. The guide was egytian wearing the traditional dress .. i was looking for a local. On the whole i don’t recommend this tour ..
