Un tour totalmente recomendable! - Ha sido un tour muy completo e interesante. Con visita al valle de los reyes, templo de Hatshepsut, Templo de Karnak y comida en restaurante típico en el Nilo. Nuestro guía Remon Romany, super amable e interesante, nos ha ido explicando uno a uno los puntos más interesantes de los monumentos y nos ha ayudado con todas las entradas. También nos dio varios consejos para evitar los clásicos problemas de ventas o petición de dinero. Todos los trayectos los hicimos en un minibus muy cómodo y con aire acondicionado. El chico que conducía, muy simpático también. Entre visitas, se pueden incluir paradas en artesanos locales u otras tiendas, pero no es obligatorio comprar nada. En resumen, una visita estupenda, muy recomendable y que repetiría sin dudarlo.
