- 708munae0 contributionsLeft my heart in AswanMy friends and I returned from a 9 day adventure in Egypt and it was nothing short of amazing. From start to finish, Ahmed ( our guide) perfectly organised everything and made Egypt even better with his dedication to detail which comforted me a lot ! His passion was admiring to see as he told us the rich history of Egypt. Visiting Aswan and going to the Nubian village was my favourite. If I ever visit Egypt again, I will 100% use Ahmed as a guide. The cruise itself was great and we felt very comfortable and safe. Places like Luxor Temple, Abu Simbel and going on a hot air balloon was lovely to experience. This trip was a once-in-a-lifetime adventure and I most definitely recommend it to anyone wanting to immerse themselves in culture and rich history.Written 22 December 2024
- 164neema0 contributionsAn Outstanding Guide – Ahmed Made Our Trip Exceptional!We had the pleasure of having Ahmed as our tour guide during our 9-day trip to Egypt, including the Nile cruise, and he truly made the experience unforgettable. His deep knowledge of Egypt's history, paired with his engaging storytelling, brought every site to life. Ahmed was not only informative but also incredibly attentive to our needs, ensuring we were comfortable and enjoying every moment. His passion for his country and its heritage was evident in every explanation, and he made even the most historic sites feel personal and fascinating. If you’re lucky enough to have Ahmed as your guide, you’re in for an amazing experience! Highly recommended!Written 22 December 2024
- saralfy0 contributionsFriends HolidayI recently enjoyed a fantastic trip to Egypt and it was truly unforgettable! The organization was top-notch, and our guide Ahmed was exceptional—knowledgeable, engaging, and always eager to share fascinating stories about the history and culture of Egypt. The trip was a delight and the friendly staff made us feel at home. Aswan was our favourite and we can't recommend this experience enough—it's a must-do for anyone looking to explore the wonders of Egypt!Written 22 December 2024

Mohammed is the best guide ever! We were greeted so well then we were welcomed by a well decorated boat with music and dancing. The trip to and from the Nubian village was amazing. Everyone was dancing and Mohammed was super accommodating to our needs. When we were at the village, Mohammed helped us negotiate good prices for anything we wanted and informed us of the quality of the items. He is also well informed of the village. 11/10 recommend this with Mohammed specifically.

an unexpected, and last minute trip turned out to be one of y favourite tours. Really loved the village and exploring daily life of the Nubian people and something different than typical Egyptian areas. Abu Joudy was punctual, and lovely to be guided by him. He took me around the area and helped me find the perfect gift for my mom. Great few hours. Would recommend

Marwa was an absolutely incredible guide and we cannot recommend this tour more highly. She herself is Nubian and has an in-depth understanding of the culture that an average tour guide would not. The breathtaking beauty and the hospitality of the Nubian villages make the excursion a must-do for any visitors to Aswan. As an added bonus, you’d also be supporting a small, women-owned business in an incredibly competitive industry!

The boat ride up the Nile river to the Nubian village was very scenic and worthwhile.
The Nubian village consists of brightly painted dwellings with dirt floors. The friendly children bring out a 2 foot allegators to hold (mouth tied shut). A large allegator was in a confined cage. Tea was offered. Wander around shops with items to buy. We felt we were overcharged for our 2 person tour with a guide.
$50/pp usd was way too much to pay. You can pick up a motor boatride on your own in Aswan for much less. We received very little info.

Had a great trip. The guide, Doaa, was knowledgeable and friendly, and the Nubians were welcoming. The ride on the Nile was a different experience and we were able to stop at one of the beaches to swim for a little while too. Highly recommend this trip to anyone who is interested in exploring new cultures and places in unconvinced ways.

First, we stayed in the Nubian village so did not experience the tour in a typical way.
I forgot our guides name, but his photo will be attached. The Nubian village is amazing!!! Color, food, hospitality, humor. We loved our stay. I felt like the guide was distracted, had English limitations, or didn't know a lot of information. He didn't explain what we were doing and seemed to say he would take us wherever. We mentioned the museum and he took us. We were not clear if he was going to change us or if he was being flexible. He took us to a café and it wasn't lunch time, but I think he was trying to accommodate without commutation. He took us by horse and carriage and had the guy wait when were the ones paying. We were concerned.. it is like asking the cab to wiat
LOL. Overall a great experience. Just be sure that you are clear with what to expect at each stop.
Note Egypt is dusty, doesn't have any assistance for disability, and charges for just about everything.

Great experience. Mo was our guide. We enjoy a great boat ride to the Nubian village which was perfect for the hot day because of the breeze. During the tour we stopped at a Nubian restaurant and enjoyed great food. I do wish there was more information and history given about the Nubian people. But if you only want to see the villages and enjoy a ride in the Nile this is a great option.

Good tour.
The boat ride is wonderful.
The Nubian village is truly characteristic.
The people are welcoming and obviously go out of their way to make you buy their specialties.
Mohamed is a good guy and a good guide.
It would be better to have more information on the traditions of the Nubian people.
Thank you

We had a very pleasant late afternoon cruise on a motor launch to the Nubian village. Mido was an excellent guide both on the water and within the village. The high point of our trip was a visit to the village's school. A teacher there demonstrated the Nubian alphabet and the language. We enjoyed the trip very much.

Good time to visit the Nubian market, kindergarten school and a family home! Our tour guide was Arab not Nubian but he still knew a lot about the Nubian culture. We were also provided with Nubian snacks and tea which was nice.
He was very accommodating to do WHATEVER we wanted to do which was a perfect private tour.
