Wonderful tour to Abu Simbel

Wonderful. Everything was well organised. Our guide is very knowledgeable and can communicate in English clearly. The bus was comfortable and clean. We were given enough time to explore both temples on our own. After that, the guide explained the history of the temple in detail. I would highly recommend this tour.

We had the best time at...

We had the best time at Abu Simbel! Our guide was so passionate and informative (and very funny!) I would highly recommend this experience. We got about 1.5 hours at the temple itself.

I don't recommend it.

The guide arrived on time despite the 4am meeting, but the driver was late. I picked up the other driver afterwards (I can't think of an employee picking up later than the customer) and left Aswan after picking up all the other customers at 5:30. Driving is rough, and my neck hurts. I only spent an hour sightseeing there. The guide just needs to give a brief explanation at the beginning and then do whatever he wants. I want my guide money back. We negotiated to make it an hour and 10 minutes, but despite the rush to get around, the two drivers mysteriously had to wait 40 minutes for a coffee while all the customers were waiting on the way home. It was a lousy tour with a lot of waiting throughout.

Mixed

The pickup was rather cahotic , the bus arrived 1 hour late, no communication from Nice tour except when we tried to reach them. In the end the bus left at 5:25 for a departure originally scheduled at 4:00. We took the first excursion to avoid other tourists and the heat, it's missed. Regarding the ride, it's just a personal feeling, the heat on the bus was quite high. The rest of the way went well. Regarding the guide, Andro, seems nice, but we did not resort to his services, we preferred not to listen to his presentation to enjoy the temple. Indeed we arrived around 9:15 and we had to meet the guide at 10:15 at the exit, We did not want to waste more time. The times themselves are beautiful and worth a visit, our experience should not prevent you from coming to discover them.

Easy going

Driver was very gifted, staff was helpful and absolutely not invasive. We could visit our way and we had a great time. Connexion with Alyaa from Nice Tours was smooth and easy, we've been very well treated and served. Just what we wanted and needed, perfect.

Very good

Hany is very knowledgeable guide and accommodating to our requests. He made the tour fun and not like a history lesson. Would totally recommend him.

Super site Abu Simbel

Abu Simbel is a fantastic site. The tour operator was accommodating and the pick-up went well at the roadblock because staying in the mountains. Lots of road but the site is worth it. Have a nice visit!
