Once you arrive at the Village, you notice the unique style of architecture demonstrated in the small houses with colorful facades and vibrant wall paintings.
You have a lot to do during the Aswan Nubian Village tour. Firstly, you can stroll through the cheerful streets of the village and get a close insight into Nubian life and traditions, meet the Nubian people, and experience their warm hospitality so you feel like you’re at your home. You can also be welcomed in one of the local houses and enjoy sipping a cup of hibiscus tea with a Nubian family.
