Picked up on time, nice car, good driver. Snacks in the car. Only minus was our guide who was so uninterested and showed some pictures. The driver showed a video while we were leaving which was much more informative. Recommend watching some YouTube videos before going there. The temples are mighty but it was 30 minutes in every temple with lots of people.

RoMany was an excellent driver and very professional. I appreciated that he pointed out many historical landmarks and sites while enroute to Abu Simbel. The tour guide at Abu Simbel was also very passionate and excited to share the history of the site. Would definitely use this company again and would ask for RoMany.

The driver was on time to pick us up and he provided information throughout the 3 hour drive, making the time fly. We stopped enroute for a break and overall the trip went quickly. Once we arrived at Abu Simbel, we were transfered to someone who then took us to our guide. Note - this does not end up being a private tour; we were added to another group of 3 when we connected with our guide. The guide was...terrible! He pointed at the outside of the temple, gave us a couple of quick facts and then told us he couldn't join us inside so we had 45 minutes of free time before we were to meet up with him outside the gift shop. We were at the allotted location on time, but he didn't show up for another 10 minutes. When he showed up, he demanded a tip before telling us to follow the path to the parking lot to find our driver. This guide was an epic failure. There was absolutely no value in having a guide at this site. The driver, however, was excellent.

We took the bus from Aswan early in the morning to Abu Simbel. As a result, we arrived there early, so there were no tourist crowds or cruise ships there yet. So we could enjoy the silence and the great sunlight in front of the two temples. Our tour guide Abdelrahman had everything super organized and led us professionally across the grounds. In impeccable German he informed us about the most important historical facts. He answered our questions patiently. Then we visited the interior of the two temples and were heavily impressed. Abdelrahman gave us enough time to enjoy everything in peace. We can only report positive things and would be happy to recommend him.

Romani was the perfect driver! The temple is amazing but our guide was very hard to understand while speaking.

Wonderful trip! Our driver, Hany, was so lovely! He even had snacks and water for us in the car, which was an unexpected treat. Our guide at Abu Simbel, a different Hany, was super friendly and informative. Abu Simbel is beautiful and well worth the drive. We left Aswan at 8:30am and got back around 5:30pm, which made it a nice leisurely day with fewer crowds.

The driver (Mark) was excellent and the van was absolutely clean and comfortable. The guide at Abu Simbel was also quite good. There were some snacks and drinks ready for me in the van, which was a nice touch.

This was a great experience from start to finish. Hany, our driver was very professional, a safe driver and made sure that we had a wonderful experience. He was very thoughtful, checking in to see if we needed anything many times while also pointing out interesting sights on the drive out and back. Our guide was very knowledgeable and told us some very entertaining stories at the temples.

The Abu Simbel tour was absolutely fantastic. The temple is truly impressive and well worth the trip. Our driver, Koko, was amazing. He was kind, genuine, and a very safe driver. He took great care of us throughout the entire journey and made sure everything ran smoothly. Our guide, Walid, was also excellent. He was very friendly, knowledgeable, and happy to share the history and details of the site, which really added to the experience. Thank you both for such an amazing day. One useful thing for future travelers to know is that the police checkpoint in Abu Simbel closes at 4:00 pm, so it is important to plan the return and leave before then.
