- Abu Simbel Temple Complex - At the designated time, an experienced Luxor Egypt Tours guide will pick you up from your Aswan hotel. You will embark on a 3-hour journey south of Aswan in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle to partake in the Abu Simbel day tour. These remarkable temples, known for their unique architectural style, are hailed as ancient Egypt’s masterpieces, showcasing the splendor of the New Kingdom era.\n\nThe cooperation between the Egyptian government and UNESCO was crucial in preserving these temples from potential flooding. The Temple of Ramses I was dedicated to four universal deities: Ptah, Re-Her-Akhtey, Amun-Re, and Ramses I himself. Meanwhile, the magnificent Abu Simbel temple is also known as the Sun Temple of Ramses I. \n\nThe Temple of Queen Nefertari, also referred to as the Temple of Hathor, honors the wife of the Sun God. In a symbolic sense, these two temples, those of Ramesses II and Nefertari, bring together Ramesses II, Nefertari, Hathor, \nand the Sun God in a harmonious unity.

Don’t miss this sight. This is a great way to visit. - It was a long day. But, Mena did a good job at keeping it going smoothly. Three hours to AS with a rest stop in the middle. He did a good job preparing us for the temples. Good overall information coupled with pointing out some key things to look for. We felt it was a good value and a good option to get there.

Fabulous experience at Abu Simbel with Mena - highly recommend - We had cruise up and back from Luxor to Aswan. We signed up later so made our own accommodation through Viator. It could not have been smoother.
Mena picked us up at boat, 3 hour ride to AS narrated and with one stop. Two hours at Temple with lunch at outside cafe.
Men’s did an excellent job preparing us for Temples (Ramses and Nefertari). His temperament, pace and style were comfortable.
One of our highlight days in Egypt.

Great Customer Service - They were on time, great and easy to communicate with. My driver was Ahmed and he went out of his way to make sure we were picked up at the right location. I really appreciate that on vacation, one less thing I had to do. He was a great driver. Our tour guide was so knowledgeable and very engaging. Not one complaint about this experience and I highly recommend them.

Amazing experience! - The trip was impressing! Our tour guide, Peter, was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the history of the temples. He provided fascinating insights and answered all of our questions with ease. The two drivers were also fantastic - they were punctual, friendly, and ensured our safety throughout the journey. The temples themselves were breathtakingly beautiful and a must-see for anyone visiting Egypt. The tour was well-organized and the itinerary was perfect - we had enough time to explore each temple without feeling rushed. Overall, I highly recommend this tour and would definitely book again with Peter and the drivers. They made our day trip to Abu Simbel an unforgettable experience!

AMAZING EXPERIENCE WITH THE BEST GUIDE - Our guide was Mostafa, he came with a large comfortable van even it was just for the two of us.
Highly recommended as other tours had small old cars at a higher price, and day tour to Abu Simbel Temples from Aswan is a very long drive (total about 7h) round trip.
He was very kind and calm, unlike other local Egyptians we met during our trip—people tend to be pretty aggressive and insisting when it comes to selling their products or asking for tips and we were getting tired of it but he was always on our side supporting us throughout our excursion with just adequate amount of conversation.
We did not bring any local Egyptian money but Mostafa was very kind to offer us some Egyptian cash every time we needed it to go to bathroom ($1 USD is too much for bathroom tip). He was also very flexible when we wanted to add another stop to our tour.
We had a lot of offers from other tour guides and companies but this amazing trip would not have happened without him! The company was also very supportive, available on chat 24/7.
I'm sure you will have an amazing trip!!!
