Great experience! - We didn't go by train but by car. We were told it would be more comfortable and, I believe, they're probably right. Mirna was quick to make sure all was arranged. My tour guide was Ahmed Bahaa. He is an amazing story teller. The excitement with which he spoke about ancient times made it so interesting and fun. He's truly a great guide. I would recommend him for anyone who really wants the detailed knowledge of Egypt. He had us very entertained and intrigued with this ancient culture.
