Egyptian history after the Pharaohs

Elizabeth_W, Jul 2025
What an amazing day we had with Hassan. If you've done ancient Egypt but feel like there's a gap in your understanding of more recent history, this tour will get you up to speed. Hassan was extremely knowledgeable and able to explain so much to us, always taking the time to answer our questions. Our a/c car that moved us from place to place was very comfortable and it was all easy walking. All topped off with a light lunch. Definitely a five star experience. Thank you Hassan and Mohammed.
