Adventure
If you stay at the West bank, be careful as the pickup there is not included (although it seems like it does from the dropdown menu of hotels) and it's difficult to cross so early in the morning.
However we managed to find a solution thanks to Elaria who worked well into the night and answered the phone even at 3.30. The visit itself is great although we would love to have more time. A lot of time was spent in lines.

Easy way to tour Abu Simbel
The people who contacted me for this excursion were different from the person who are reachable on the day of excursion so it’s a little confusing when you need to contact them at wee hours in the morning. However they stayed & waited for us as we arrived so late at the pickup point. Im thankful for this. This isnt a private drive though (not stated in the package). Driver Adel is friendly & make sure everyone is in place & follows the time for pickup & drop off at Elephantine Jetty area. Enough 2 hours to tour Abu Simbel. It was 5am-2pm includes 1 rest stop & the many police checkpoints (you dont have to get off the van)
Comfortable & safe ride. Recommended for a no nonsense trip to Abu Simbel.

Terrible & Irresponsible
The tour operator canceled my tour at 4am morning which on the same departure day. This is so irresponsible and totally ruin my journey to Abu Simbel. Who want to go Aswan without visiting Abu Simbel?? DO NOT recommend to engage your tour with this operator!!!

What a terrible trip
It was terrible trip because I spent so much time to move to get to the meeting point. We were 8 people in a car except the driver. I hopped on the last. Every people paid difference price. It was ridiculous. I think I paid the most expensive price. Further more, on my way back to the hotel, the driver dropped me at the bridge. So, I had to walk extra 20 min. Overall, it was a bad memory to me.

What more do you want ?
The Fact that they made a mistake and went to the wrong hotel and made right by still picking me up I thank them for a lot! I feel like some places might of said the hell with that and just kept pushing, it gets hot in that little Van so make sure you ask them nicely to turn up the Air Conditioning and take snacks, they only make one pit stop so make it count and it’s only 5 mins so make it quick also. Other than that it’s a nice hour and a half tour at the site.

chaotisch, widerspprüchliche Informationen, Reiseveranstalter kaum zu erreichen
Der Fahrer war schnell und freundlich.
Sonst war alles SCHRECKLICH: im Rahmen der Buchung wurde ein Pick-Up Hotel ausgewählt und eine Sprache für den Guide. Auf Rat meines Hotels musste ich selbst nachhaken, ob ich tatsächlich am Hotel abgeholt werde. Die angegebene Telefonnummer war ständig ausgeschaltet. Erst nachdem Viator kontaktiert worden ist, hat sich der Reiseveranstalter bei mir gemeldet. Und erst dann kam die Info, dass weder Guide noch Abholpunkt der Buchungsbestätigung entsprechen.
Am Tag der Reise hat der Reiseveranstalter keine Info an den Fahrer gegeben über die Personen, die mitgenommen werden mussten. Über 45 Min lang wurde mit einer Gruppe diskutiert, ob tatsächlich sie mit diesem Fahrer fahren oder nicht. Schreckliche Organisation.

Round trip
Well.. to be honest i was a little concerned about the other reviews that said the company cancelled the tour the day before.
So, I WhatsApp them the day before to confirm the tour. They replied immediately.
What they offer is pretty straightforward, they pick you up, they drive you 3.5 hours, then we have 1.5 hours to walk around the tempmes ( more than enough) and then drive you back to the hotel. There Is one bathroom break each way.
We didn't take any guides, since they are not allowed inside, so we just read about the temple and was enough.

Perfect!
Excellent tour and even better driver Alaa,. He went above and beyond to make sure we all are comfortable.

Cancelled 3 hours before the tour
3 hours before our trip ( midnight because we should’ve left at 4am) the trip was cancelled without any reasons. They gave us a notice via email but we don’t have a wifi /24 hours a day with us.
They could’ve called us or send us a message but no….
We are really disappointed and we can’t book any more tour so late. They ruined a day for us without any compensation. As a Swiss tourist I would recommend you to AVOID this trip via this agency… Put 10-20 more dollars to be sure to travel.
We are really disappointed and sad about this tour.
