It was definitely a highlight in our trip to Rome. The guide, Robert was absolutely amazing. His knowledge of the history of everything was superb and what a great story teller!!! Skipping the line is imperative and I would recommend this trip without hesitation.

My Review
The trip was wonderful. The champagne cellars and tours are very well organised and we learned a lot about this wonderful wine. the tasting was excellent too. The visit to Reims cathedral was marred by the weather. It was also Easter Sunday so access to the cathedral was quite limited which was a pity as the bits we saw were very beautiful.

My Review
Same guide as for the pyramids, so that was spectacular. We also changed part of our itinerary on the day and this was accommodated with no problems whatsoever, which was impressive. The museum was disappointing, but that is an Egypt problem not the tour as such. The Citadel and the Mosque were outstanding and we went to the hanging church and Koptic area rather than the souks. It was fascinating and the guide handled the change with no problems whatsoever. On both tours, the guide really contributed towards making the experience a memorable one.

My Review
Our guide was really fantastic. He has a great knowledge of Egypt and was very happy to share it. He gave us enough time to explore things on our own after setting the scene with his narratives. The driver was excellent, glad I wasn't driving in and around Cairo! All in all this was a wonderful tour.
