“Amazing Trip”

★★★★★

written by on 05/11/2015

We took the Nile Cruise with Abu Simbel in end Oct 2015. Ask Aladdin was most accomodating (and patient) with our constantly changing plans (Thanks Heba!) and patiently ansewring zillion questions on safety and comfort on the trip, during many phone calls we made from the US before arriving Egypt. They changed hotels around to 5 star names known to us to make us feel better about the accomodation.The cars arranged were well maintained and had very good drivers.
Our guide Ahmed was the most patient and polite young man with hoards of Upper Nile stories as well as accurate historical information (I am an Egyptology enthusiast and Ahmad's details checked out everytime). Between my sister and I, our questions for him were diverse and sometimes we skipped his details to which he would only smile patiently. The drive into the dawn towrds Abu Simbel was fantastic and the visit of the temples most exhilrating. Same was for Aswan and Luxor. Once he learnt we were fish lovers, his recommendations on local non touristy restaurants were fabulous.
Although our interaction with Ramadan, the Cairo liaison was brief, he was welcoming like an old friend.
Everyone we interacted at Ask Aladding before and during our trip. made us feel understood, safe, secure and totally awed about this maiden trip of ours to the Upper Nile Valley. We recommend Ask Aladdin to anyone who wants a great experience and thrilling but very safe adventure in Egypt.
