We took the 5 day crouse from Luxor to Aswan and included Abu Simbel, that place is a must! - The Cruise was perfectly organized, we had a different local guide in spanish in every city and atraction. Most of the guided tours we were just the 3 of us, so it was more personalized and we could stay longer or shorter in different places. All of the guides were proffesional guides with extremly good level of Spanish. Or coordinatior Nam Bassam, was all the time present in WhatsApp to answer all our questions and sent us the dayly program. Perfect vacations!!
