Movenpick Hotel, Aswan Egypt


This was our first stop on a 1 week Egyptian tour, to celebrate our 25 th anniversary. We flew into Cairo on Oct 2nd, and with a delayed flight we found ourselves running through the international airport to barely make our connecting flight to Aswan. We finally arrived at the beautiful Movenpick Hotel after midnight. Since we didn't speak Arabic very well we had a little trouble communicating. But on our arrival we were met by a driver connected with our travel agency who took care of us until we reached our hotel. With a few tips thrown out, we got to our room with all of our luggage. Egyptian currency is the pound, and it's 10 Egyptian pounds to one English pound or 5 pounds to one US dollar. Now we are back in England and can catch up on the Blog.
