    The guide spoke perfect English so he was easy to understand. He was able to explain everything very well. I wish the tour had been a little longer though. The best part was that the tour guide didn't drag you to a store and pressure you to buy stuff. He was literally the only one who didn't do that

    Hello Amy, How is it going with our refund? We are still waiting. The Tutanchamun Exhibition was IN ANOTHER MUSEUM, where we had to pay again. So this is a scam! Greetings Julia
