Summary: We did 2 night boat tour (Dahabia) from Aswan to Luxor and also the 2 day city tour in Luxor and it was one of the most amazing experiences ever. Especially because we had Samar as our guide, who explained us everything about ancient Egypt, the temples and all the other questions we asked her. We can tell she is very passionate about what she does and that is what makes her the best tour guide I’ve met. Always with a smile on her face and very good sense of humour, eventually we all became good friends. Definitely a trip we will never forget! Thank you Samar

Summary: We did the Dahabiya 2 night tour from Aswan to Luxor where Samar was our private guide. It was amazing, she was amazing! We liked it so much to have her with us that we had to continue with 2 more days in Luxor, where she showed us to all of the temples, valley of the kings, museum, souk market, felucca ride in the Nile and even some restaurants for typical egyptian food! Its hard to find a guide with perfect english, interesting storytelling, charm and such a nice personality.. impossible not to love her! She taught us so much about ancient egyptian history but also about present culture and religion of Egypt. We were a very curious group and she was always super available to respond to all of our questions! If you want an unforgettable experience in Egypt definitely book a tour with Samar!!
