View on Google MapsOur guide Naeleh was as wealth of information on the monasteries and area, was easy to understand and friendly. We also had a good driver who was familiar with the roads and Egyptian driving practices. The tour company was also very responsive on communications and the tour was as advertised. I would say this tour is for someone that wants to dive deeper into Egypt and is more of an intrepid traveler. It is not for someone that isn’t up for a bit of an adventure. We found the monastery grounds to be very relaxing, with interesting architecture and historic significance. Monks guided us at two of the monasteries and Naeleh at the third.
Naelah was an amazing guide: we totally loved the Natron Valley Monasteries tour. It showed us a different side of Egypt. The monks were very helpful, guiding us through the Monastery themselves. The local visitors were very welcoming and the kids followed us around wanting photos with us. The building and view was exceptional. The added police escort between the monasteries was not needed but ensured we were very safe. Naelah provided information on the areas we were driving through to the Natron Valley and lots of history. She was very welcoming na shad perfect English, we really enjoyed our day with her. This trip was one of our favourites during our tour of Egypt, it would be very easy to miss but I highly recommend it:

Great architectural, historical, and cultural tour of a way not well known, but very important to everyone.
I very much enjoyed my tour with Egyptologist tour guide Naelah because she was super knowledgeable and she even arranged for us to meet with her friend Coptic monk Timon there at one of the monasteries, who tested her knowledge in front of me to ensure I get accurate information and also added interesting knowledge facts to the programme. Naelah orchestrated best time management to ensure that I made it to my next programme plan on time. Best Sunday tour option is to go for this monasteries tour with Naelah.
Excellent service, driver and guide hyper pro and attentive. I recommend this tour and this provider
Fantastic experience from start to finish! We had a wonderful day tour of the monasteries with Medhat. He showed us everything and gave us all of the history. It was really a magical time. Medhat knew some of the monks too and we were even able to speak with them and ask questions. That was amazing! The old monasteries are beautiful with spectacular frescos. The driving was all safe and Medhat took great care of us. We are very thankful for our tour. Highly recommended!
Mind blowing trip! Thanks for the tour guide Medhat, it was an amazing day visiting Wadi El Natrun tbh.
