Old Cataract

Short trip to Aswan, A jewel in upper Egypt, and -in my view- hosts the mildest and most pleasant people in Egypt. Old Cataract built in 1902 what a style. The windings to the 1st nile cataract is just under you, the Felouka and boat men are exeptionally versed in navigating tight rapid windings of silver-black water. Do not try sailing on your own.
