Outstanding Day Tour of Philae Temple, High Dam, and Unfinished Obelisk

Published on Jul, 2024

I recently experienced a full-day tour of Philae Temple, High Dam, and the Unfinished Obelisk in Aswan, expertly guided by Ahmed Majid. From the beginning to the end, the tour was delightful. The boat trip to Philae Temple was magical, with stunning views leading to the well-preserved temple. Ahmed’s detailed explanations made the ancient carvings and history vibrant and interesting. Visiting the High Dam was equally fascinating, showcasing impressive modern engineering and its significant role in Egypt's history. The Unfinished Obelisk offered a unique insight into ancient stone-carving techniques. Ahmed’s expertise and passion added immense value, making the tour both informative and enjoyable. The day's organization was flawless, with comfortable transportation and ample time to appreciate each site. This tour is essential for anyone visiting Aswan, combining history, culture, and remarkable sights in a well-balanced and engaging way.

Fantastic Full-Day Tour of Philae Temple, High Dam, and Unfinished Obelisk

Published on Jul, 2024

I recently took the full-day tour of Philae Temple, High Dam, and the Unfinished Obelisk in Aswan with our guide Ahmed Majid, and it was incredible. The boat ride to the serene Philae Temple, with its intricate carvings, was a highlight. The High Dam showcased Egypt's engineering prowess, and the Unfinished Obelisk offered fascinating insights into ancient craftsmanship. Ahmed Majid was knowledgeable and engaging, making the history come alive. The tour was well-organized, with comfortable transportation and ample time at each site. Highly recommended for a comprehensive and enjoyable experience in Aswan.

Nubian Village Tour

Published on Jun, 2024

Ahmed Majid provided a unique experience for our family. We got deep insights into traditional Nubian culture. We also went swimming in the Nile. That was amazing!

Ahmed Majid is a great tour guide

Published on Jun, 2024

Ahmed Majid is a freelancer tour guide we worked and let me just say he was incredible. I learned a lot! He was very polite and knowledgeable about Nubian history and struggles which I was grateful for as I am curious about the Nubian people. I would absolutely recommend him as a tour guide!

good quality and interesting

Published on Mar, 2023

I made a tour with Kareem to Philae temple, aswan high dam and unfinished obelisque. He was very knowledgeable and entertaining. Maybe a tip: I would suggest to skip the high dam and spend more time in Philae as the latter is really beautifull. He also makes sure you have enough pictures to take home with you. I also did the nubian village tour. The boat trip is astonishing. The village itself is - as a lot of things in Egypt - directed on tourism. If you want to hold a small crockodile, this is the place to be. So in short: I liked the boat trip more than the village itself. So if you go for Kareem, you'll have good time and quality assured!
