- AStephen· January 26th, 2024Hard to pick out highlights. Abu Simbel was magnificent, as was the temple at Karnak. Dinner with the Nubian family was also excellent. But Waleed’s timing so we were able to see the tombs at the Valley of the Queens and the Valley of the kings almost by ourselves was fantastic.Show moreTrip date: December 2023Review collected by Explore!
