Es war eigentlich kein Service. Wir haben nur die Eintrittskarten per WhatApp geschickt bekommen. Es war schwierig, da ich nicht einmal WhatApp habe.

Ausflug ist schon recht teuer. Der Fahrer war sehr gut. Der Guide zeigte uns einige Dinge sehr kurz, andere gar nicht und gab uns dann "Freizeit zum Fotografieren" im Museum. Dabei fanden wir auch Dinge, auf die wir gerne hingewiesen worden wären bzw. gerne direkt erklärt bekommen hätten, auch wenn wir danach noch Fragen stellen durften. Sie saß dann über eine Stunde im Café.

Der Führer war exzellent. 15 von 10 Punkten. Es war für unsere Gruppe auch schön dass wir den gleichen Führer für die folgende Tour hatten. Leider war das Museum nur teilweise geöffnet. Der größte Teil war geschlossen. Aber es hat sich dennoch gelohnt

Gebucht waren Eintrittskarten und Führung im neuen ägyptischem Museum. Angekündigt wurde, dass sich eine Person des Kartenanbieters am Tag vorher per E-Mail meldet. Auch wurde angezeigt, dass eine Abholung im Hotel erfolgen würde. Es kam keine Mitteilungen auch am nächsten Morgen bis 1 Stunde vor Museums Beginn erfolgte nichts. Auch vor dem Museum im Eingangsbereich war kein Vertreter des Kartenanbieters. Erst nach langem, vergeblichen Suchen Erfolg. Von einer Führung keine Spur. I
