A great Egypt travel company with a great and helpful owner
Aqua Egypt is run by Sayed, and he is the best contact in Egypt to arrange tours. I recommend booking any trips in Egypt with Aqua Egypt. The trip to Aswan is a long day and a lot to fit in. A guide met us at Aswan and was very informative and interesting throughout our time, especially at the Philae Temple.
Later, Sayed organised a private Sunset Cruise in a Felucca boat, which was a dwefinite highlight of our trp to Egypt.
Today, at the drop of a hat, Sayed organised another private trip to the Tombs of The Nobles with a car and guide.
About travel, Sayed is so knowledgeable, flexible, and is just a genuinely nice person.

Stunning!!
This is a five star tour with a five star guide. It’s a long day and there’s a lot to see but the experience you will have is totally worth the 12 hour tour. The guide was incredibly knowledgable and patient and had excellent English. A lot of time is spent in the car but it is a comfortable ride and the guide keeps you entertained. The food in Aswan was probably the best I’ve had on my vacation. Aswan has some of the most beautiful temples I saw on my vacation.

We are family for three took a private tour from Luxor to Aswan. Tour coordinator Sayed from Aqua Egypt Tour came to our hotel day before and explained the literary. He arranged a private car, driver and guides for Edfu temple, Nubian village and Philae temple tours. He also arranged lunch in a restaurant with nice view. Driver and guides were excellent. WE REALLY HAVE GOOD TIME.
On the way back guide took to Aswan train station and explain the train ticket and seat number. When we returned Luxor, Sayed picked up from the train station and drop off our hotel. BEST THING ABOUT AQUA EGYPT TOUR AND COORDINATOR SAYED; HE KEPT TOUCH WITH US ALL THE TIMES AND ASKED OUR CONCERN AND OFFER HELP IF WE NEEDED.
I highly recommend Aqua Egypt tour and coordinator Sayed for anyone including my friends and family members.

Personalized service full of warmth
We are a family of three and took a private day tour to Aswan. The tor operator, Sayed, and the guide, Ahmed, are amazingly warm and genuine people. They gave us the options of what we would like to see and provided their own recommendations too that made our choice easier.
Ahmed is pretty knowledgeable and well traveled while Sayed makes sure that even the smallest of your needs are catered too. We wanted some healthy snacks so they took us to a shop having nuts and fruits. The lunch place was an elegant restaurant in the middle of river Nile and the food was delicious.
Highly recommend them as you can’t go wrong with these guys!
