We had Aladdin as our guide the entire tour. Genuinely speaking he was incredibly, first of all he was able to prevent the Egyptian belly that we got so he gave us a pill . Secondly he was very friendly, informative patient, and very knowledgeable with temple and the culture. We got a chance to stay with him at the boat and he and the cruise team made us Egyptian food was so good . He followed up on the issues we had and made sure was solved . Book with him and make sure you tip him . Such a lovely I definitely recommend

Ho fatto questa vacanza con amici visitando questi meravigliosi templi e tombe dell'antico Egitto. Durante il tour che abbiamo scelto siamo stati seguiti dalla guida Aladdin. È una persona molto simpatica e alla mano, molto preparato sulla storia dei luoghi visitati. Ci ha raccontato tutto con un perfetto inglese e, grazie alla sua conoscenza dell'italiano, ci ha anche aiutati a capire se avevamo qualche domanda. È stato inoltre molto disponibile durante tutto il tour per qualsiasi necessità del gruppo. Una persona splendida, davvero consigliato!

Esperienza stupenda! Siamo stati 3 notti nella Nave da crociera accogliente con personale gentile e sempre disponibile durante tutti i giorni di soggiorno, cibo molto buono. Durante tutte le visite guidate abbiamo avuto due guide Aladdin che ci ha accompagnato durante la visita nella valle dei re e ad Abu Simbel è stata sempre cordiale disponibile e molto bravo nella spiegazione, mentre a luxsor abbiamo avuto mohamed che anch'esso era molto preparato in particolare di egittologia. Consiglio tantisismo questa esperienza!
