It was a very good experience that you have to have! The bus ride was a bit long (but this is improving due to the opening of the new motorway) and uncomfortable. Nevertheless, the drivers were good and knew the route. The guide ASSIM was excellent. He knew his way around very well and was able to share nice and interesting information on the trip and about the historical sites. He always made sure the timing was perfect before the masses of tourists arrived to visit the sites. He was also open and helpful. If you were short of money, for example, he would have put it aside and you could have easily given him the money at the hotel after the trip. Water and food (lunch, snacks on the way back) were provided. The Nile trip, which can be booked separately, is also highly recommended. Nevertheless, you should definitely bring provisions (especially water) with you, as you will be on the road for a little over 15 hours. Recommended only for those who are used to traveling.
