Villaggio nubiano
Gharb Soheil è un affascinante villaggio nubiano situato sulla sponda occidentale del Nilo, raggiungibile in barca in circa 30–40 minuti. È famoso per le sue case vivacemente colorate, decorate con disegni tradizionali, e per i mercatini artigianali dove si possono trovare spezie, abiti e prodotti locali.
Durante la visita è possibile entrare in una tipica casa nubiana, gustare tèverde e karkadè e scoprire un’usanza curiosa: la presenza di piccoli coccodrilli vivi, allevati come simbolo di protezione e buona fortuna.
Il villaggio offre un autentico spaccato della cultura nubiana, distinta da quella egiziana, con tradizioni, lingua e musica proprie che rendono l’esperienza unica e coinvolgente.

Colour full village but a Leisure activitiy
Had a good time in the moto boat. Village is colour full. Main attraction is the pet crocodiles. Go for it only if you have leisure time.
Our guide Abo Joudy made it memorable with his witty banter and small kartoosh gift.

No es necesario tomar el tour
Se puede ir a la villa nubia por cuenta propia, no vale la pena pagar el tour, ellos solo lo llevan a una casa nubia a sentarse sin hacer nada, otros guías explicaban más, brindaban snacks locales, dejaban tocar los cocodrilos, a mí solo me preguntó el guía si quería seguir ahí o irnos, obviamente preferí ir a caminar por el pueblo, pero solo me llevó a una tienda para comprar y luego de regreso al bote, tuve que pedirle que me mostrara más del pueblo nubio y él insistía en que no había más, solo me llevó al otro extremo y de regreso. Aunque el guía trato de darse a entender por su inglés no era muy bueno, también me ayudó tomándome fotos, no sentí que en general el tour valiera la pena, es más barato ir por cuenta propia, se contrata un bote en la orilla por $2-$4 aprox. y se camina por cuenta propia en la villa.
Por cierto fui a las 3pm a mí me dijeron que la gente estaba durmiendo y por eso estaba desolado, si prefieren que esté vacío por la tarde es mejor, pero si quieren ver algo de acción, supongo que sería mejor por las mañanas. Fui en Septiembre

Chilling on the Nile
It was a pretty nice experience, relaxed and chilling. Our guide Mohamed was so nice and always answered our questions. Also he gives you some time to have a refreshing bath on the Nile River beach.

Great experience!
Tour guide, Manal, met me at my hotel, and we walked a short distance to the waiting motorboat that takes you to Nubian Village. She was very nice and had a good relationship with the motorboat operator, so I was offered the option to visit the motorboat operator's village in the 'old' Nubian Village. It was great! The original homes were amazing, and visiting with the Nubian family in their home was a very touching experience. I am sure that visiting the 'new' Nubian Village would also be a great experience, the colorful homes are beautiful, and the people who live in the Village are very warm and welcoming. Definitely a great side tour if you have the time.

Não se deixe enganar - não há nenhuma beleza em Vila Núbia
Anunciam Vila Núbia em Aswan com fotos lindas de casas coloridas, povo com trajes locais pelas ruas, dizem que você ver crocodilos, vai viver experiências incríveis e quando chega lá é só decepção. Tem meia dúzia de casas tristemente coloridas, com uma arquitetura bem simples e diferente do que prometem mostrar, vi dois crocodilos presos, cada um, em um poço de 2x2 (um absurdo!). Li em vários fóruns que não valia a pena e a decepção das pessoas, paguei para ver. Perdi U$60,00 por um passeio que não vale U$10,00.

Una bellissima avventura!!!
Siamo partiti dal porto di Aswan, accompagnati dalla nostra guida Ali Elbody davvero molto simpatico competente e tanto paziente, a bordo di un piccolo battello a motore molto colorato e caratteristico. Durante il tragitto abbiamo goduto del bellissimo paesaggio che la natura e la fauna del posto ci hanno regalato. Una meraviglia davvero!! Abbiamo raggiunto la prima cateratta e ci siamo fermati da lì a poco in un posto dove per qualche minuto abbiamo potuto ascoltare i suoni della natura e nient'altro!
Finalmente in lontananza scorgiamo i primi colori azzurro bianco giallo e verde.... Caratteristici delle costruzioni Nubiane....ad accogliervi tantissimi bambini e venditori ambulanti "quelli non mancano mai nemmeno in navigazione" ma questa è un altra storia!!! Abbiamo visto i coccodrilli, fatto le foto e preso uno di loro, bevuto il thè alla menta preparato dalla padrona di casa e visitato la loro abitazione!!!! Lo consiglio vivamente bellissima esperienza!!!

Thanks to Nile King Tours and Gad. This time my visit to Egypt was the best
It's my third time travelling to Egypt. This time April of this year, I went with Nile King Tours. I told them what I wanted and they sorted everything out for me. I was met at Luxor Airport by the tour guide Gad. He was a very nice man and his knowledge of Egypt was amazing. On the first day of the visit, I met some other people. Now we're a party of ten. Gad took us to visit places like. Luxor Temple, Karnak Temple, Valley of the Kings and Edfu Temple and that's only some of the places I visited. As I said, Gads knowledge was amazing. His English was also quite good and he explained things to make it easy to understand. He was always very professional at all times, and he spoke passionately about his work. I had the most wonderful experience. Gad even started out my flight to go to Cairo to meet friends. I have already recommended Nile King Tours to my friends and I'll definitely travel with them again.

Our guide Karam made the best tour!
Our day at the Nubian village was arranged by Karam and was the perfect introduction to Aswan. The boat ride on the Nile, visiting the markets and the Nubian home, hibiscus tea, henna tattoos, holding a crocodile and sampling their food was incredible. The big highlight of the day was riding camels together up into the desert during sunset. We laughed and giggled and couldn’t believe we were sharing all of this together in Egypt. Afterwards, we enjoyed a beautiful ride on the top of the boat back to where we started. The experience was wonderful and I cannot thank Karam enough for organizing the tour and joining us as our guide. He does such an excellent job of taking care of his families. I wouldn’t ever hesitate to recommend him!
