What are the well-known landmarks in Aswan that can be seen clearly from the Sundeck of the Nile cruise?

Answers:

  • You will be able to see the "Noble Mountain" that is carved in the rocks of Aswan on the western bank of the Nile, from a distance, and it is lit at night, charmingly. Also, you can see the "Agha Khan" mausoleum on top of a hill, which overlooks the Nile and gives you a unique perspective that is not available during the Egyptian travel itinerary.

Use local currency (Egyptian pounds): Paying in local currency often makes purchasing easier and avoids any confusion regarding exchange rates. 4. Don't feel pressured: If you feel pressured into buying, simply smile, thank them for their time, and continue on your way. You don't have to buy unless you're completely convinced.
