We flew from Cairo to Luxor and joined our ship for a week on the Nile. Due to low water levels in the river, initially we did not go very far as it was not possible to navigate the section north of Luxor. However, we were straight into our schedule of early starts, temples and tombs.
We were in the same group of six with the same guide and driver for all the sight seeing. Our guide, Wael was quick to pick up the pace and sense of humour of our all British group. Wael qualified at Cairo university in tourism, guiding and Egyptian history/archeology sixteen years ago. Sadly, though due to the impact on tourism in Egypt of political unrest and the pandemic, he has only had around six years of good work.
