This was a great your. Our guide, Michael, came on time with a car and driver. He had a lot of good and interesting information on the High Dam, how it was built and the effects of the dam. Philae Temple was fascinating. We were just about the only tourists there today! Try the fresh mango juice ...

Mina and his driver met us promptly at 8am at our hotel. He was the most knowledgeable guide we had in Egypt. He was professional, informative and his knowledge of the ancient Egyptian history was exemplary. I would highly recommend Mina to be your tour guide while in Aswan!

Fantastic day trip to Abu Simbel. Our guide “Big Mac” was knowledgeable, attentive and very good company. It was a memorable trip made all the better by BM and his great sense of humour ( he insisted on calling us Big Boss and My Queen- what’s not to like!). Highly recommended.

Aida is a fantastic guide. Nothing was too much trouble and her explanations were knowledgeable and full of character. Aida arranged a visit to the Nubian village at a moment’s notice, that was not part of the planned tour, but turned out to be the highlight of the day. Thanks, Aida.
