Thanks for the great time in Aswan - I traveled solo and took the Aswan tour with guides Alaaedine and Mubarak, and driver Taher. I highly recommend this tour for the following reasons: I was promptly picked up from the airport around 9 am. Our tour began with visits to the Unfinished Obelisk and the High Dam, followed by the Philae Temple. We enjoyed a boat ride to a Nubian village and had dinner there. What made this tour exceptional: The trip was flexible, and my request to include a swim stop was accommodated. The boat trip was like something out of a fairy tale. As the only traveler, I had a private tour. The pricing was very reasonable. I had two guides for some parts of the tour. The dinner was fantastic, and we dined at the highest point in the village. Alaaedine is an incredibly experienced and professional guide who explains things very clearly. Mubarak is highly motivated and dedicated to showing you the best of Egypt. Our driver was absolutely fantastic, with an excellent knowledge of the area, which saved us a lot of time. I will definitely choose them again for my next trip to Egypt

Nermien the woman guide. Fab trips in and from Aswan - I did this as part of a nile cruise and also went to the nubian village on a fellucca and boat. Nermien is a very knowledgeable woman guide. As a lone woman traveller it was great to have a woman guide. I would highly recommend her and the trips plus abu simbel.

Experience of a lifetime - I had a spectacular time with Nermien, my guide for the day in Aswan. She went out of her way to ensure I was comfortable and having a good time. Helped me a lot in bargaining and advised me on where to purchase genuine items at a good rate. Apart from her amazing guiding skills she has a wonderful, warm, fun and friendly personality which made the experience much better. Truly an unforgettable experience and definitely someone I would recommend to people once I go back home!

Day trip in Aswan - The tour was very amazing. Nermien, our guide picked us up from the airport and took us to the High Dam. It’s a huge dam with great views. The next destination was Philae Temple. The boat ride had a picturesque background and it was amazing experience. Very professional staff and well managed tours.
