In the morning, your local French-speaking Egyptologist guide will pick you up at your hotel reception. He will accompany you in a private motor boat to La Rive Ouest where there are the 2 sites. You will start with the Tombs of the Nobles, where you will visit 3 Tombs, then you will take your camels reserved in advance for you to continue to the Monastery of San Simon.

We would like to highly recommend Mr Hany Suliman Tel: 0201066172636. We traveled with Hany for a week in Aswan and Luxor. He is full of knowledge of ancient Egypt. He accompanied us to all the marvelous sites in the area. He was very attentive to our needs. Very flexible and willing to make changes for us if needed. Hany is a warm gay and being with him felt like being with family. We highly recommend him as your guide to these areas. Anat
