Great Museum of Cairo is... fabulous

It was the best museum I've ever visited. It's great and fabulous! The visit was made through our Portuguese travel agency Pinto Lopes, responsible for 11 unforgettable days in Egypt. The museum is huge, but very well structured. I loved everything, with particular emphasis on the giant statue of Ramses II and the spectacular treasure of Tutakamon. I waited years for the moment to realize the dream of this visit and it really was worth it! It's so magnificent!

Wonderful museums made even better with a guide and a driver

We were well looked after by a pleasant, knowledgeable guide and a great driver. We were jet-lagged so the the end of the afternoon was harder work than it would have been otherwise.
