What are people saying about Aswan

This is a fantastic tour...
This is a fantastic tour and way to transfer from Aswan to Luxor why seeing and learning about more temples. Islam my driver was very early and waiting for me at the dock in a very clean and air-conditioned car and provided me with refreshments. He kept checking through our the journey that I was Ok and that the temperature was good for me. My Tour guide AfAf was brilliant and very knowledgeable. She taught me so many new things about each Temple and took her time to make sure I saw everything, and helped to take some fantastic photos for me to remember the day

See the real Egypt.
If you want to see how people live in Egypt away from the cities take this trip. It is tiring but worth it. You share the road ( if you call it that) with double trucks, buses, mini vans, cars, tricycle buses, cars, motorbikes, people, horse and cart, donkeys and even hundreds of goats blocking the road. You see the people in their day to day lives and kids jumping off the bridges into the canals for fun and to cool off. Then of cause the temples , especially Edfu, along the way.

The best experience I had
I had a fantastic experience on a 4-day Nile cruise. The entire cruise was very well organized. I was picked up right on time at the meeting point, and we boarded the ship quickly with a fast check-in. The cabins were extremely clean and tidy, and they were serviced every day. The food quality was excellent, and the staff were incredibly kind and respectful. Overall, I had a really wonderful experience on this 4-day cruise.

Lovely experience
The driver was respectful. Arrived promptly. He didn't make me feel uncomfortable as a solo female traveller. He's also a careful driver, avoiding road bumps and potholes. He sign posted me to the ticket stand and didn't just drop me off at the car park. He did not smoke in the car. I will recommend Mohammed from Nubia. I had read bad reviews about Emo tours prior to travelling and I was avoiding them. I only realised when the driver arrived that it was an emo tours tour. I found Abu Simbel underwhelming and not worth the hype. I prefer Karnak and Luxor Temples the statues and every other thing.
