Like an escape back in time, the Aswan Nubian Village was all natural, all black and a pure, unadulterated African enclave.

I basically had the small boat to myself on the transfer from the cruise ship to the small village across the Nile.  The LOVE Boat captain played Bob Marley down the river all the way to the Nubian Village and encouraged me to go up on top of the boat for grander vista views of the Nile.

Once we arrived, we were welcomed for tea in the home and personal space of Ms. Malak.  All the residents of the village are basically entrepreneurs sharing their lives and work with tourists.

This could not have been missed.  Not one second of it.
