✔️Luxor or Aswan? Well, BOTH! Here is why:
NATURE:
⛰️Luxor is blessed with dramatic mountains.
🌊Aswan is blessed with the river scenery.
ATTRACTIONS:
⛰️Due to the mountainous grounds, Luxor has 📍the Valley of the Kings; 📍Valley of Queens and 📍Temple of Hatshepshut.
🌊Aswan's 📍Philae temple is in the midst of the river. You need a boat to get there. You will also find the 📍Elephantine Island at water level (you'll find the elephantine pyramid and the Aswan Museum).

Her vacation starts from the day she starts planning... TOO many details for Mario.
We are Egyptians (currently) living in 📍Egypt. Nardine lived 18 years in 📍Kuwait and Mario lived in 📍Saudi Arabia.
