The Egyptologist was not nearly as helpful or informative as others I have had. Also, he took us to a restaurant and told us we would get 2 lunches. Never saw a menu and said we owed him $40. Food we inedible -cold overcooked sea bass and very overcooked grilled chicken. One bright spot: Driver was very capable negotiating terrible traffic.

Nice ride in a private car for few hours to some great stop over at Alexandria. Ended the trip with a coffee stop by the beach. Couldn’t be happier with the guide and driver.
