Dingen om te doen in Aswan

The transportation pick-up was very punctual, and the driver worked hard to get us to the Abu Simbel temples before the tour groups. However, this private guided tour was already priced a bit higher than other local travel agencies. On the return trip, the driver held out an envelope asking everyone for tips, which made us feel like the price wasn't all-inclusive. Why would they ask guests for tips? Also, the itinerary didn't mention tipping or whether driver tips were included.

Mohammed was een uitstekende gids en legde de tempels in Luxor in detail uit. Hij hielp ons ook met aanbevelingen voor eten en breide de verhalen van de Kom Ombo-, Edfu- en Phillae-tempels op een ongelooflijk goede manier aan elkaar tot de tempels en graven van Luxor.

We had an amazing day touring Luxor with Ahmed Yossry! From start to finish, everything was smooth, well-organized, and stress-free. He showed us not just the famous sites but also the hidden gems that made the experience truly special. Ahmed is incredibly knowledgeable and shared fascinating insights throughout the day, bringing the history of Luxor to life in a way that was easy to understand and engaging. On top of that, he made sure we felt safe and comfortable at all times, which made a big difference in enjoying the experience fully. If you’re planning to explore Luxor, we highly recommend Ahmed, he truly made our day unforgettable.

Klopt het dat er geen recensies zijn? Het was een zeer leerzame tijd met een echt inhoudelijke en vriendelijke uitleg. Ik vond het eigenlijk prijzig, maar het was een keuze waar ik geen spijt van heb. Het Engels was ook gemakkelijk te begrijpen en werd op een eenvoudige manier uitgelegd. Ik hoop dat onze gids, Ali, altijd gelukkig zal zijn~!

Overall, I am satisfied. The guides and coordinators were mostly very kind. I was very grateful for the quick responses during our prior communications. However, I would have liked a more detailed schedule. If I had known there would be time to explore the cities in Aswan on day 1 and Luxor on day 3, I believe I could have spent my time more productively. It was unfortunate that the quality of the guides varied, and on one occasion, for transportation, we had a carriage transfer where we were asked for a higher-than-average tip.
