Fantastic experience

Published on Aug, 2024

The Abu Simbel and Nubian Village tour was a fantastic experience! Seeing the ancient temples of Abu Simbel up close was awe-inspiring. The intricate carvings and massive statues were breathtaking. Our Egyptologist guide provided so much insightful information about the history and significance of the temples. The visit to the Nubian Village was equally amazing. It was wonderful to meet the local Nubian families and learn about their culture. The motorboat ride to the village was a unique and scenic experience. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Aswan!
