- Abu Simbel Temple Complex - As per requested time Tour guide will pick you up from your hotel in Aswan and drive to the south of Aswan which is around 3hrs drive to enjoy Abu Simbel day tour from Aswan by air-conditioned vehicle. The two Temples of Abu Simbel, with their unique style, are considered to be the masterpieces of ancient Egypt. They reflect the glory and grandeur of the new Kingdom. The Egyptian government and UNESCO decided to co-operate in order to save these temples from the flood. The Temple of Ramses II was dedicated to the four universal gods Ptah, Re-Her-Akhtey, Amun-Re, and to Ramesses II himself. The great Abu Simbel temple is also called The Sun Temple of Ramses II.The Temple of Queen Nefertari is also Called Temple of Hathor who was the wife of the Sun God so in a symbolic way, the two Temples, that of Ramesses II and that of Nefertari, bring Ramesses II, Nefertari, Hathor and the Sun God together as one. Spend around 3 hours there then take the way back to Aswan.

Abu Simbel tour with Abdel Razek. - Abdel Razek was an excellent guide at Abu Simbel, making the visit both informative and enjoyable. His deep knowledge of the site and engaging storytelling brought the history of Ramses II and Nefertari to life. He was patient, answered all our questions, and even helped us find the best spots for photos. His passion for Egyptian history was evident, making the experience truly memorable. Highly recommended!

Thank you. - We purchased the private trip to Abu Simbel for my family, but two relatives got sick to the stomach and we had to cancel. We canceled less than 24h and were very friendly, analyzed the situation and charged us no commission. Very professional and good communication.

Worth the long drive. - Our driver, Mohamed, was excellent and told us about anything of interest along the route. The guide at the tombs told us about them and about what we should look out for inside. The artwork inside was very well lit making it easy to photograph.

Excellent solo trip - I took a solo trip from Aswan to Abu Simbel. The driver promptly picked me up at my hotel. The road was bumpy in certain places, but he was very professional and got me there and back safely. The guide was good at explaining everything to me and gave me enough time to explore the temples. I highly recommend this tour company.

Great trip from Aswan to Luxor - We recently had this private transfer service from Aswan to Luxor, and we were very happy with the experience. The booking process was straightforward, and communication with the team was great.
The vehicle was spacious and clean, and the driver was professional, courteous, and very knowledgeable about the route. He maintained a steady pace, ensuring a smooth ride, and the driver was very thoughtful. We felt comfortable and taken care of throughout the journey. We stopped to enjoy Kom Ombo temple and Edfu temple, which were very pretty, and arrived in Luxor in good time. Would recommend this service!

Everything perfect - Driver punctual under our hotel at 8.25. Fascinating trip with coffee break in the middle of the desert.
In Abu Simbel we found Yasser (Alessandro), a very knowledgeable and friendly Italian guide. Everything met expectations.

Tour ok but with a big minus from the organizer - The driver was amazing. The tour at Abu Simbel was good.
However, we booked a Russian speaking guide; only in the evening before the tour we were told that there is no Russian speaking guide but only an English speaking one. „You may cancel if you do not like it“, we were told; as if we could find another guide at 10pm for early next morning, which they knew exactly.
This was, in the end, simply blackmailing, as they waited to inform us until the evening, so we would have lost that day if we had not agreed to go with the English speaking guide.
Not very nice to do that.
Why offering languages that they cannot provide?
