Must see Philae Temple Sound and Light Show!
We booked the sound and light show at Philae Temple in Aswan with Ayman and his driver Tahur. Ayman was able to arrange our pick up from the Nubian village where we were staying. He was very polite and friendly and gave us a welcoming vibe. He shared a great history lesson about Aswan along the way, and we also took a motorboat to the temple and watched the sunset, while he shared some great stories about the Philae temple. The light show we attended was in English, and they also have multi-lingual audio headset for other languages as well. It was educational, and it resounded all of what Ayman told us. The sound and light show was in a storytelling type of format, and you can feel the mystical aura of the temple while doing a walk through. Ayman was kind enough to take a lot of photos for us. We highly recommend this tour and we are certain that other visitors will certainly enjoy it too. 5 stars!

July trip, 5 star experience
I had a lovely time in aswan and Luxor and this is my second time visiting these lovely cities. Our tour guides were informative and knowledgeable and clear in their message and translation. The cruise was 5 stars and everyone on it was very nice to us.
Special thanks to our tour guide Ms Hanaa who took us to Filae Temple and Aswan Dams and she was very helpful and kind.
