I have a beautiful house in Elephantine island - Aswan city - Egypt, it's direct in the Nile with fantastic view, the house include two bedrooms, bath room, kitchen, Air-condition and Salon, it's second floor in my family home, i will be waiting for you here to see here.
Hi friends, my name is Mohamed bashir from Egypt - Aswan - Elephantine Island. I work in tourism as a travel agency in Mena tours company , I speak English besides two mother languages - Nubian and Arabic. I like reading a lot and relaxing at the quite Nile which surrounds my Nubian village on Elephantine Island.
The accommodation is on Elephantine Island, Aswan City in Egypt - it's a part of the Nubia region. There are 2 bedrooms, one with a king size bed and one with twin beds. There is a salon with sofas, dining table and T.V. There is a kitchen. The bathroom has a bath tub as well as a shower. The accommodation has air conditioning, TV and WiFi. The house is two minutes from the Nile, you have the best sunset view in all Aswan city. How can i help you? I would like to walk with you around Elephantine island, talking to you about the history of the Nubia and Elephantine Island, telling you about the places around the area (Aswan Botanical Garden, Agha Khan Mausoleum and Tombs of the Nobles). Also, I would like to tell you about the story of The Old Cataract Hotel and Agatha Christie. I can organize for you any program in my beautiful city Aswan, for example: 1. Felucca - sailboat - journey on the Nile 2. Motor boat on the Nile 3. Journey to Abu Simple Temple 4. Journey to High Dam, Philae Island and the unfinished obelisk 5. Nubian foods delivery to your accommodation * I never take commission for that. * I'm a trained masseur and give massages if you
