Fantastic 2 days (Aswan and Abu Simbel) with wonderful people - I made this trip with my daughter (15) and we had an unforgettable 2 days. Communication was great from start to finish, I was in contact with Amal Mohamed who was easily accessible and provided us with all the information. Everything that is provided in tip top condition. Our driver Tarek was very good and this ride to Aswan and Abu Simbel went very smoothly, we were able to stop several times and take some pictures of the journey there and back and he told us nice information while driving. Our guide to Aswan was Ali, Ali is a really great guide and recommended to everyone, Ali arranges everything for you and made sure everything was to your liking!! He showed and told us all about Aswan and the temples, arranged a beautiful trip on the Nile and a wonderful traditional restaurant in a Nubian village. He also helped with checking in for the overnight stay, so that everything was neatly arranged, from boarding the boat the next morning to the lunch boxes. Ali is really great! The next day we had Khalid as guide to Abu Simpel, Khalid was also a great person and made sure we lacked nothing. Told us all about the temple and everything we saw along the way. These 3 men created a fantastic 2 days for us, for which we are very grateful. A fantastic experience and well organized from A to Z. I would recommend this to everyone!
