This itinerary gave us a deep understanding about the era of Akhenaton. It was hard to find one itinerary that had visits for the tombs at Amarna and this one fulflilled our expectations. A special thanks to mr. Salah and for mr. Fathy Taher, who had a deep knowledge of portugese language and of Egyptology. We hope to see you soon again! MarcelIsabella
