Fun dinner option!

Heidi_H, Dec 2025
I mainly booked this because I wanted to stay at a Nubian hotel but didn’t have time, so this helped us experience Nubian culture. Our guide Alaa Din made sure we had a great time! Dinner was really delicious. He tailored our experience after dinner to us. The only thing I would do differently is wear bug spray

Unfortunately a massive flop

Claudio_D, Aug 2023
Unfortunately this was not was we expected. The guides (x2) that picked up my wife and I did not explain anything about the Nubian village or culture in general. They took us directly to the market where they simply walked alongside us in silence from shop to shop. A bit of interaction was offered when we entered a spice store where we got to sample (as we were going to buy some anyway) some of the Nubian spices. Dinner perhaps was the most awkward part as we set in an empty restaurant (although it was open air and it was quite a nice location, but around there they all are) and the guides sat and ate with us. No conversation was made during dinner, they sat there and ate the Nubian food we ate. But even before that, the guide ordered a large water, which he helped himself to, then offered to us. And then later was left for us to pay. Then one of them proceeded to open the YouTube app and entertain himself with some clips..while the other young girl sat there next to us, on her phone also. We offered them an early mark so they did not have to wait for us to finish eating in that uncomfortable setting. This could have been done for a fifth or less of the price by catching a motor boat from Aswan. Do not recommend, I know these peeps don’t offer refunds so I won’t bother asking but I’m giving you guys a heads up. There is better stuff out there than this. Worth noting, if you are going to do a 3/4 days Nile cruise they will probably offer you a not-on-the-menu US$30 Nubian experience that, on top of being cheaper than this one, it will take you to visit a Nubian school, a Nubian house (with crocs) and a beach on the Nile to take a dip. So check with your tour operator. Good luck!

Nice Experience

Ashraf_Y, Mar 2022
This booking through Viator.com for a Nubian village tour in Aswan . The tour went very well and the tour guide name Doaa was excellent. The tour shifted from its inclusion and missing one part of the tour which is the Nubian Show. But the tour guide told me that’s because there is not much tourists that day . And I accepted her explanation If the tour went as it was listed it should be a 5 star

La guida era la prima...

Chiara_M, Jan 2025
La guida era la prima volta che faceva questo tour e non sapeva che avevamo il te nella casa Nubiana, lo spettacolo con la musica non c’è stato, organizzazione lenta, costo troppo alto per il servizio. Cena buona.
