Collected from our hotel in Soma Bay at 5:30 as arranged. Mohammed was our driver, we called him Lewis Hamilton as he was fast but we never felt unsafe. He got us there quickly and was always waiting when it was time to move on. Our guide was Mansour (Mannie) whose English was excellent and his enthusiasm great. We asked many questions and he knew the answers, explaining things clearly and obviously loved that we wanted to know more of his culture.
Karnak was amazing, Valley of the Kings mind blowing! We paid extra to visit Seti I's tomb- very expensive but we were the only ones in it and it was beautiful.
Food (included) was delicious, much better than I expected.
Back to the hotel for 7:30, a day to remember, and what a great price!
Remember to take plenty of money (we took USD) for tips
