Traveler reviews
A day trip to Abu Simbel and Aswan from Luxor
It was a truly amazing day. The trip was long but very well worth it. The lunch box was very nice. The driver, AMR, was truly a professional and guide, Nana, was a very lovely companion. Adding a visit to the Temple of Philae in Aswan was a wonderful idea. Thank you very much for a safe and excellent trip.
Abu Simbel
Lita explained it to me very carefully and took some nice pictures. Thank you in the heat. The driver was also relieved to be driving safely.
Abu Simbel with a great guide
I had a great experience to visit Abu Simbel. It is a long trip from Aswann, but it is worthy. The temple is very well reconstructed. My private guide was Ahmed Abdelwahab, he was great. Very interested in teaching about the egyptian culture and making sure to clarify any doubts. Additionaly a great photographer, kbowing the perfect spots.
Great time together
Great visit, we were picked up at the place indicated upstream by email by our guide. Everything went well , good management despite a sandstorm on our return. Despite a high but common speed in Egypt, everything was done to have a good day
Abu SIMBelle tour
Pick up at 4h to wait 45 minutes on the road because it opens only at 5h, in the heat without air conditioning. If you want to go out and wait outside, it is with mosquitoes that you take to the air. The guide is nice and explains well, but what good is a guide if he can not go back with you to the temples explain to you .. so you will be entitled to an explanation on the road and that is all. An envelope will be given for the tips but if the quantity does not suit him he will not hesitate to come back to you asking more. Very unpleasant and spoiled the experience. No drinks or food. Not even water.
