It was absolutely incredible! Exploring the hidden corners and rich history of the city with Marik was an unforgettable experience. And ending the day watching the sunset from the Temple of Debod with him as our guide was simply magical. Undoubtedly, a tour I'm looking forward to repeating in the future. Thank you for this unique experience!
