    We did the guided tour of the Royal Palace and the Egyptian museum and we were lucky enough to have Sofia as a guide, that is, an exceptional person for competence, education and great professionalism, we have 2 children one of 7 and one of 13 and she managed to keep them attentive for 4 HOURS ...... VERY GOOD !!!!!!

    Very interesting and useful visit to update the knowledge on this fascinating page of history and Thanks to the precious assistance of the guide Sofia, available and careful to provide explanations on historical trends, finds and processing techniques in the various phases of the history of ancient Egypt. The guide was very attentive and patient with the children, making them participate and involved in this extraordinary educational path.

    Day dedicated to the Royal Palace and Egyptian museum with a guide, Sofia, truly competent and engaging. Despite the time available (about 5 hours), not much for what we had to visit Miss Sofia allowed us to grasp the essence of the palace and the museum. I'm sure I'll use this service again next time
