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!

Karam was AMAZING!!! He was patient and knowledgeable. He took us around and gave us a little extra with our tour. We had nubian tea with the Nubians and it was such a great, liberating experience.
