Why You Should Visit Aswan, Egypt

In this visual, you'll see why you should go to Aswan when you're in Egypt! Abu Simbel is nothing short of amazing. We had a unique experience staying on Aswan's only floating houseboat, Anakob, on the Elephantine Island. The Nubian culture is full of history that you definitely want to learn about too

Hello, thanks for the informative video. We were wondering if the cost from Aswan to Abu Simbel $70 per person? Would you be willing to share the contact you used to arrange transport? Thank you

[@mauiandtrizzy]

Hi, thanks for reaching out! Our driver was through our accommodation (Anakob Houseboat) - you can email them to see if they can help arrange a driver even if you're not staying with them: info @ anakob.com - please note their prices may have gone up since our trip back in 2022. Also, not 100% if Steven's Taxi can take you from Aswan to Abu Simbel - they operate more around Marsa Alam but it doesn't hurt to ask. They were wonderful and hopefully they can help customize a trip with a driver for you - if you have WhatsApp, you can message them [phone] or email them Steven @ marsaalam.com Hope this helps! Enjoy your time. Safe travels!

Which month did you visit? Was it hot?

[@mauiandtrizzy]

Hi, thanks for watching. We went in mid November and the weather was perfect. Warm with a slight breeze during the day. Night can get chilly, but we managed without a jacket most of the time- however we had a light jacket handy just in case! Hope this helps… safe travels!
