Great & enjoyable experience - Aida was a fantastic tour guide! She beautifully told the stories of the places we visited and ensured that the group was engaged and interested the entire time. She broke down the excursions and visits in a very organized and precise manner. I highly recommend taking her on as your guide.

Awesome and engaging tour! - Aida was an awesome guide! She had so much knowledge about the Philae Temple and she was able to convey that information in a very engaging way. She was also very fun to talk to, which made it feel like you were making a new friend. The tour includes a boat ride to the temple and to the Nubian village with enough time at each stop. We had a great time and would definitely recommend it.
