    We had the absolute best time with Basma on our day in Aswan. She took great care to give us a great experience and went above and beyond, especially at the Temple of Isis and with a unique experience at a local women's cooperative that I inquired about. Basma is incredibly knowledgeable about Egyptian history, the rituals of the ancient world, and brings a unique perspective as a woman and academic. I really appreciate her insights. If you're coming to Aswan or Egypt in general, please book time with her. You will not be disappointed.

    We had a wonderful time with Basma as our guide, visiting the tombs of the nobles, and Philae temple. Basma was very attentive to our needs and an excellent story teller. Her explanations really gave meaning to our experience of these ancient places, and she organised all the transport (including by felucca) meaning we could get from place to place seamlessly. As a bonus, Basma was able to find a last minute cruise for us, negotiating a great price - we are so grateful for our experience with Tanora. If you’re hesitating whether or not to get a guide, I would say Tanora tours makes it worth it.

  • Amazing day in Aswan

    We had an amazing tour with Basma of the Tombs of the Nobles and Philae Temple. The experience was seamless with all our boat and van transfers organised in advance and Basma even provided some food and water. Most impressive of all was Basma’s knowledge of Aswan’s history and mythology and the way she shared these stories as we visited the monuments. Will be contacting Basma for all our Egypt tour needs and recommending Tanora to friends and family.

  • Basma: best tour guide of Egypt! Highly recommend her!

    I HIGHLY recommend to ask Basma to be your guide! She is amazing! We were so lucky to meet her :) A journey through Aswan and Luxor with Basma as our guide was an enlightening experience! Her profound knowledge of ancient Egypt's history, Egyptian mythology, and hieroglyph understanding captivated us at every site – from the majestic Isis Temple and Horus Temple to the captivating wonders of Kom Ombo, Karnak, Luxor Temple, and the Valley of the Kings. Basma's passion and expertise brought the past to life, making this tour an unforgettable and enriching exploration of Egypt's extraordinary civilization. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a truly immersive journey through ancient history!
