Amazing experience - We had booked a tour with Mr. Ahmed from viator for Philae Temple Light and Sound show. The tour was amazing and Mr. Ahmed has customized it very well. The transportation arrangement, planning and the meals were really good. We have also planned 2 more days to see attractions in Aswan. Overall, satisfied and highly recommended.

Stared at Philae, ended up spending 3 days of Private tour in Aswan with Mr. Ahmed - We started the tour with Mr. Ahmed from Viator and made the agreement for Philae light and sound tour for 6 friends. We got picked up punctually as agreed with him earlier and given the transport with a spacious modern van with strong AC in the beating heat . We got transported to the Philae island in a moonlit night from a local Nubian village instead of the regular harbour and then got dropped by the same way . We also planned further 2 more days with him because he understood our requirements and customised our whole Aswan trip. We got picked up the next day from hotel and spent the whole day on a private motor boat on the Nile, floated across the first cataract, went through the nature reserve in the island of Saloga and Ghazal where we watched many local birds. It was followed by a swim in the Nile where sand dunes of Sahara desert met the Nile waters and no other tourist was present. Afterwards we got dropped at the Gharb Seheyl island and had a close encounter with Baby crocodiles at a Nubian Home. The tour ended with a sumptuous homemade Nubian food at the island before we got back to the hotel by Boat. The Next day we went to Elephantine Island, visited the local Nubian villages of Siou and Koti and the tour ended with the visit of Aswan's Botanical garden after taking a look at the Abu ruins and ancient Nilometer. I must say, no one can plan the tours in Aswan like Mr. Ahmed did for us according to our mixed interest in History, Nature, Luxury and Relaxation . He is the best tour planner, end to end , a one stop solution in Aswan

A must do activity in Aswan - Really a great and must do tour which people tend to ignore. The light and sound at Philae temple is astoundingly beautiful and mysterious. The driver was really courteous and friendly. Dropped me on time and handed and tickets and explained everything about the next steps clearly. I had enough time to watch the light and sounds and come back. The driver waited for me and dropped me safely back to my hotel.

A beautiful experience - This was so much fun. Such a magical experience in a wonderful location. The views here are some of the best you'll find in Egypt. Great photo Ops. The fact that this entire temple was completely moved from one island to another is amazing. Trojans Kiosk is a bonus! The tour was great. Tour guide was so knowledgeable and friendly. I'd recommend this tour in a heartbeat.

Overall good - The overall experience was very good and nice. Ahmed took care of everything, including the pick up and drop. And show was also very good. But the push for more tipping is not good, as tipping should be more from oneself and not pushed. If tipping is a thing, then it is better to add in the tour to reduce the hassle.

Disappointing - It wasn't what was expected. The whole show was n French, and we are English. Luckily, I was able to use google Translate on my phone once it was in conversation mode. I should've been told that it was going to be in french so I could book it when it was in English.
