Overall, the tour guide was knowledgeable and could speak English well, but that’s just it. I am very disappointed that when I asked Dr. Mo to cancel my civilisation museum trip, he did not reduce my fees. I was also taken to other ‘museums’ or rather, souvenir shops that was not part of the plan but I’m sure they get commissions from, hence why it’s forced. I was forced to buy papyrus souvenirs but I was stern enough to say NO. I then told the guide that I DO NOT want to stop at any more souvenir shops. Lunch was supposed to be included but it wasn’t. I’m also skeptical as to why the guides don’t join us inside the pyramids. Might as well go alone! Guides’ fees should have also been included in the package I paid for. OVERALL, guide has enough information that I can also google easily, but the package was unnecessarily expensive and has many hidden tourists traps in between.
