Discover the temples of Abu Simbel with ease on a private tour Listen to historical anecdotes you're unlikely to find in the guidebook Make comfort stops whenever you need as you travel in air-conditioned comfort Hassle-free hotel pickup and drop-off are included
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. The 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. The 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, and the Sun God in a harmonious unity.

After many recommendations we chose Luxor Egypt Tours and enjoyed it so much. We had great service and a great driver with a private car. Everything worked out great. We left early and were ahead of the large groups. It was simply wonderful and we really enjoyed the time. Thanks to the great team. We will be back.

The Abu Simbel temple was worth the distance it took to get there. The depth of the love Ramses II had for Nefertari can be seen all over the walls that make up the 2 temples. The genius engineering and unique design (compared to other temples in Luxor and Aswan) made the temples very memorable. The beauty of the temples was further magnified by understanding the history behind them, which we had thanks to Kareem, the guide from Luxor Egypt Tours’ private tour.

While the 3 hour one way trip through lots of sand and rocks (did I forget to say lots of sand), is long, we had a great guide in Kareem and driver Hamada who made it comfortable with good information, interactions and a coffee break. We had a great time in Abu Simbel and Kareem took some great pictures and videos for us. I would recommend this tour if you up for 3 hours each way of sand and rocks

Booking was quick, Mr Mousa helped us and was were quick with the replies. I must say we were lucky to have our driver, he was very kind and humble and made sure we were comfortable throughout the journey. He doesn’t speak English but still made sure we can understand him with actions. We also booked the tour guide, MR Sami, he explained everything in detail at Abu simbel. Over all it was great experience with them.

It is a long ride but when you have a good driver, and when he makes you and your family safe, what else can you ask? Mohamed Galal was our driver, in a sedan vehicle, clean and in good condition. He was on time and adjusted the schedule to our needs. We told him to drive slow from the beginning and he was respectful of our request. My wife was able to sleep which says everything about how much she felt safe. I recommend Luxor Egypt Tours and Mohamed.
