    We stopped off at a village just near Kom Ombo Temple...our guide took us through a local home and a guy there showed us some of the traditional ways of doing things in the past... We also got to pat a baby camel (so cute!)!!!

    The Temple of Philae was relocated in the 1960's because the Aswan Dam/High Dam waters were flooding the area. You need to take a boat across to the island of Agilika these days to get to the temple.

    The Nile River is very well known in Egypt and for a good reason...it is the lifeline of many locals! The Nile is a beautiful river that is the home to many towns/cities and the majority of Egyptians. It is great to sail down, walk beside or boat across/along the Nile...there are so many things to see along the way...

    Drinking Water

  • It's not safe to drink from the tap. You can buy bottled mineral water, which is very much available everywhere in shops and hotels.

    It cost about 6EP to 10 EP for one large bottle in hotels, and 2EP if you buy from shops.

    The brands that i took were Nestle and Baraka.

    Some of my tour mates boiled the mineral water but i didn't. It's not really necessary.

    I like the Nubian music. It feels like a mix of arabic music and african rythm. Nice melodies, warm voices.
    Salamat is a group of Nubian musicians and singers. I like their cd ''Nubiana''.

    the landscape between Luxor and Aswan: the desert at one side, rich soil with thousands of palmtrees at the other side of the Nile. And all this beauty just passes by while you are relaxing at the pool of your ship ...
