Not what we expected
Considering that the tour is quite expensive, the car was a bit old. The place where they take you to eat is not exactly a 'restaurant' so we preferred a lunch box which we then ate at the hotel. But the strangest thing was that the guide asked us to pay for the tickets with our credit card and that he would then reimburse us in cash. Of course we did not accept this. And in the end, despite the high cost of the tour, I suppose they expected a higher tip.

Long but pleasant drive to Abu Simbel
We had the pleasure to have Ahmad from Emo Tours, who drove us from Aswan to Abu Simbel & back. He was very professional & went out of his way to make us comfortable throughout the long journey. He was also very informative and recommended to us various activities in Aswan. Along the way, he pointed out the interesting places we could visit. Ahmad surprised us by packing falafel lunch in Abu Simbel. He was friendly and we chatted on many topics during the long journey. Overall we had a wonderful trip with Ahmad at the wheel & would highly recommend him to other visitors.

Enjoy the trip and enjoy the treat
We were picked up on time. We felt very comfortable to ride with our driver. The site was not crowded at all during our visit. That was a plus. At end of the trip, the driver bought each of us a cup of ice coconut. That was so thoughtful after a hot day tour.

最高のドライバー
なかなか出会うことのできない、素晴らしいドライバーとのツアーでした。
今回、アスワンからアブシンベル神殿への往復の送迎のツアーでしたが、ガイドさんも兼務してもらえているような方でした。
移動途中、街のことや風景の説明をたくさんしてくださり、また、昼食が含まれていないツアーにもかかわらず、ファラフェルサンドイッチのお店にも連れていってくださりました。この度一番の美味しい食事でした。
帰りに、翌日以降の各種ツアーの提案もありましたが、すでに予約済みだったため、お断りするしかありませんでしたか、今回のエジプト旅行では、このドライバーさんもそうですが、このツアー会社がとてもよく、すべてのツアーをお願いすべきだったと思いました。ぜひ、EmoToursを利用してください。お勧めできます。

A private day trip to Abu Simbel - Not perfect but OK
+ The driver was waiting for us at the agreed time and location. He was driving safely.
+ We were able to depart at 8:00 am from Aswan and thanks to it avoid morning crowds in Abu Simbel. The heat there during the day was bearable in November.
+ Because it was a private trip, we were able to stay at Abu Simbel a bit longer than usual.
- The driver was supposed to bring and give us bottled water but he didn´t bring any. Luckily we had our own.
- The driver´s English was limited but it was not a big issue, with the help of Google Translate we were able to agree on the pick-up time and location for the return.

Very respectful and...
Very respectful and professional driver. We had 1.5 hours at the site (plenty of time). Pro tip - leave at 8am, by arrival time everyone is gone back home, no crowds.

Great tour
Did a great day tour with Samir. He explained everything very well with a map in the air conditioned van. Abu Simbel is very hot and I would not have been able to pay attention in that heat. He was also very helpful when one of our kids got sick with heat exhaustion. Great tour.
