My favorite part of this experience was our tour guide and Egyptologist, Eslam Shark!! He has a kindness and generosity of spirit that made us feel truly safe and welcomed in his beautiful, country. His knowledge of Egyptian history was beyond, superb. We were blown away by our amazing, experiences with Eslam and look forward to seeing him again upon our return. Cruising the Nile River and our trip to a Nubian village in Aswan was “other worldly” and among one of our top things to do there, however it is very, difficult to choose favorites among all of the visits to the many temples and historical sites, rich culture and people and savory food. I can’t say enough about our spectacular trip to Egypt!!! Finally, the hot air balloon ride in Luxor was delightful and one of my personal, life’s highlights! Thank you, Eslam!!!
