Unsere Reiseführerin Magda war sehr kompetent sowohl hinsichtlich der geschichtlichen Hintergründe, Landeskunde und Sprachkenntnisse (Deutsch). Auch auf der persönlichen Ebene haben wir uns sehr gut verstanden. Für Getränke und Snacks unterwegs wurde von Tui gesorgt. Unser Fahrer hat sich hervorragend durch das unerwartete hohe Verkehraufkommen geschlängelt, so dass wir trotz Verzögerungen ausreichend Zeit bei den Tempeln in Abydos und Dendera hatten. Der Ausflug ist auf jeden Fall zu empfehlen!
