Professionale, confortevole e sicuro! Ottima esperienza.
Ottima comunicazione. Riprendi in tempo. Veicolo comodo. Mohamed l'autista è stato molto professionale e cordiale, ci ha dato ottimi consigli sulla barca per l'isola. Grande esperienza libera da fastidi e mercanteggiamenti. Lo consiglio vivamente. Grazie Mohamed!

Excellent Guide, Flexible Service - Skip the High Dam
Our guide Mohamed Salah was outstanding and made this tour a wonderful experience for our family of 6.
Mohamed went above and beyond from the start. The tour company told us to meet at the city-side dock, but he took the motorboat across to our Movenpick Resort hotel dock to pick us up directly. When my niece wasn't feeling well and only wanted to see Philae Temple, he immediately adjusted the schedule to go there first.
At Philae, Mohamed paid for all entrance fees upfront (we settled later) and even negotiated the motorboat to the island down to 500 EGP. His knowledge of the temple history was thorough and he took us to different areas while taking photos of our group throughout.
After the temple visit, Mohamed did something memorable on the boat ride back. He filled a water bottle directly from the Nile and drank it, explaining how clean and fresh the water is there. He encouraged us to try but we politely declined. My sons (despite our objections) took small sips. We were worried they'd get sick but thankfully they were fine. Mohamed told them it was a sign they would return to Egypt.
When we headed to the High Dam, Mohamed arranged for a secondary driver to meet my sister and niece en route and take them back to the hotel since my niece was not feeling well. The secondary driver was also very nice, showing them sites along the way and staying in touch with Mohamed about their safe arrival. He even noticed my niece left her headphones in the car and brought them back to the hotel later. Both were very grateful for the kindness.
About the High Dam: This part was honestly unimpressive. We saw the Soviet statue (gift for helping build the dam) and looked at both sides, but spent maybe 15 minutes there. My son was disappointed there wasn't a small tour explaining how the dam actually operates. I'd recommend skipping this part of the tour entirely and spending more time at Philae or other sites.
After the tour, I settled all entrance fees in cash with Mohamed. I also asked if the driver could take us to dinner at the Old Cataract that evening, and he immediately agreed. Mohamed started a WhatsApp group so we could coordinate with the driver and checked on us throughout the night to make sure everything went smoothly.
Mohamed has a clear passion for Aswan and genuine warmth toward visitors. His flexibility, knowledge, and willingness to go the extra mile made this tour special. Just ask to skip the High Dam and spend that time elsewhere.
Highly recommend Mohamed Salah as a guide!

Le location sono...
Le location sono bellissime, attraenti e forniscono un senso di relax.
La gente del posto di Assuan era disponibile. Ho dato 3 stelle per la guida in quanto stava solo dando una panoramica e non comprensione dettagliata dei siti. Era giorno - 3 del nostro viaggio e le aspettative rispetto alla guida erano già alte dal Cairo quindi non ha enjyed molto

Unique combination of ancient and modern history in Aswan
Overall, this was a good visit that my wife and I had with our tour guide Omar. His knowledge of the Philae temple and its history is extensive for those who like and enjoy history as he had clearly done his homework. Did you know, for example that the temple has history involving not only the Egyptians but also the Romans, early Christians, and even French, and that it was submerged under water for decades? He was also knowledgeable about the high dam, including the unique history behind the first dam, the political ramifications when the high dam was added decades ago, and how it continues to shape Egypt’s history. Combining these two places of dam and temple is interesting as they are so very different sites. Omar was patient and waited on us when we wanted to see anything in particular, we got some good coffee and snacks.
If there is any small critique, I would say two small things some might want to do differently. First is I think it might have been nice to walk to and see the friendship tower on top of the Aswan High Dam, but it technically wasn’t part of the tour. Second, towards the end you are taken to an oil and incense shop… while getting anything is optional and you are told to not feel pressured, the performance put on by the place is extensive, such that *if you’re a group of only two* as we were, you feel odd not getting anything (at least if you hail from a western background like me). They were nice enough though, and not pushy, and some would like the product… it’s just beyond what I was looking for such that I would prefer that part of the tour being optional. My wife did willingly wish to buy something here though and enjoyed, and pointed out that had Omar not taken her there she never would have visited it.
Omar was not pushy, he had great English and a love for Aswan that was enjoyable to be around, was a good conversationalist, and I would definitely use him again for any tourism needs in Aswan.

The Dam and The Philae Temple
Mohammed is an excellent guide and he explained in detail The Aswan Dam and The Philae Temple. He also explained how the The Villagers were relocated to another island.

La nostra migliore esperienza guidata in Egitto!

Comunicazione e flessibilità fantastiche.
Mohamed era la guida perfetta. Ha fornito punti di interesse lungo la strada per la diga e il tempio e ha dato spiegazioni dettagliate e risposto a tutte le domande che avevamo. Questa è stata la nostra quarta visita guidata in quattro giorni e di gran lunga la migliore grazie alla professionalità, alla cordialità e alla cura di Mohamed per il benessere dei suoi clienti. L'Alta Diga, il Tempio di Philae e la cena alla fine del tour sono stati tutti fantastici. Anche il nostro pick up / drop off non standard era impeccabile. Ha anche scattato fantastiche foto di famiglia per noi. Ecco come dovrebbe essere gestito un tour e altre compagnie/guide potrebbero imparare molto da Show You Egypt Tours/Mohamed!

Guida altamente raccomandata in Assuan
Mody è una guida molto esperta, e ci siamo sentiti davvero a nostro agio perché ha negoziato il prezzo della barca al Tempio di Philae per noi. Lungo la strada, ci ha raccontato molto sulla storia di Assuan e dei vari siti.
Lo consigliamo vivamente a tutti.
