Muhamed Gobran was the star of the show, he made the trip. Was very patient and knowledgable. The food on the cruise was disappointing but that is no fault of Muhamed and to be expected sometimes in Egypt. Trip of a lifetime. Only thing that I would say is a 10 hour round trip driving (5 each way) for the Abu simble temple was not worth the reward as we saw so many other amazing temples a 20 minutes drive away. But that is just personal preference and some people who are really into Egyptology might find it worthwhile.
