Perfect.

Great experience! Hazel is a fantastic guide, super kind, and very cheerful. We loved it! He explained the Nubian village well, took us to visit a mosque, a school, and we strolled through the alleys. He warned us about prices to avoid scams; in short, I recommend him 100%. He is the best guide we have had in Egypt! Thank you!!

Great place to visit

Aswan is a place worth visiting; there is very good food, it has interesting sites and wonderful excursions such as the new dam, the Temple of Philae, the quarry of obelisks, faluca rides, motorboat trips, and visits to Nubian villages. It is the closest point to go to Abu Simbel.

Enchanting, cultural, and humorous discovery at the Temple of Philae. Thank you Mohammed.

The visit is full of emotions. Punctual pick-up by car from our hotel by Mohammed and our driver. Introductory generalist topo about ancient Egypt by Mohammed in the car. Enchanting round trip by small boat to Philae Island. Exciting visit of this small temple (for ancient Egypt) exquisitely placed on its island (following its move by UNESCO for its preservation). In particular, the unique features of Egyptian Ptolemaic architecture and the eventful history of the temple after its construction, from Christianization to its partial immersion in the artificial lake of Aswan, through the Napoleonic occupation, were learned. All this with humor. The end of the tour is in a traditional Egyptian perfumery, with antique-inspired essences.

Emad Aiad, a brand of excellence!

It was an excellent day with Mr. Emad Aiad, an energetic guide with a very high cultural level. His sympathy, energy and culture captivated me from the beginning, turning my day into moments of excellence.
