The tour was excellent and very interesting. I was impressed with the place. It’s amazing the work that was done there. It’s unbeilable the work done to cut and move the temples from another location.

The tour guides are very considerate and helpful. Highly enjoyable. We had a great time seeing the whole complex after thorough information session. The whole trip was exactly on time and well orchestrated.

Mohamed Salman was a wonderful funny and friendly guide. He was very knowledgeable about the places we visited around Aswan. He was on time and very helpful with getting us to little shops for water etc. His drivers were great and the cars were well maintained and they drove safely. I would be happy to have Mohamed as my guide again and would recommend him highly 😎

We spent 3 nights and two days in Aswan and Luxor. As we were right on time due to work restrictions we decided to do a viator package. We flew to Cairo and then Viator booked us a business trip package for 3 nights/2days to Aswan/Luxor. We were met off the plane in Aswan and were taken to meet our tour guide Ahmed. We went to see Aswan Dam and Philae Temple. The temple was amaIng. Brilliant examples hieroglyphics and our guide Ahmed was very knowledgeable. Afterwards we were transported to our hotel in Aswan for don much needed rest. The following morning we were picked up and driven to the burial chambers in Abu Simbel. It was a 3 hour drive and some said not work to it but it was probably one of the best sites I have ever visited. Well worth the trip down. We then sent back to Aswan and got a train with our guide to Luxor. Day 3 was spent in.a hot air balloon in the morning over the valley of the kings. we hadn’t this booked but Ahmed got that sorted for us very quickly. Afterwards we went to see the valley of the Kings and Queens and Luxor Temple and Kanak Temple. We found everything so easy. Booking the business option meant that the two of us had a private guide the whole time we were there. if we were not happy with anything or anything was wrong (which nothing really was) Ahmed was straight on the phone to fix it. He even took us for some traditional Egyptian breakfast on our last day. We found him to be extremely knowledgeable and willing to help us whenever we needed it. He didn’t mind giving us extra time in the places we really wanted to see - all to make sure we enjoyed our trip. Highly recommended tour and if you book it definitely request Ahmed!!!! Thanks Ahmed for everything and see you on our next trip back!

My wife and I couldn't be happier with the service by Mohamed and his team. Everything was organized perfectly. We would highly recommend Egypt Unlimited Tours.

My husband and I had this private tour about 1 week ago. Mohamed Mostafa provided great service. Because we wanted to visit Abu Simbel early in the day so we could have sometimes to visit another temple in the afternoon, so we made 4am departure. Mohamed told our hotel to prepare breakfast for us, and packed in 2 bags, so we could enjoy breakfast the way we drove to Abu Simbel. Mostafa Gamal was our private guide, he made a great tour with us, told us the history about the temple, a very knowledgable guys for old Egypt. I kind of like how they arrange the tour. Mostafa explained the Temple, the history before we got in the temple. Then when we visited, we already knew the history about the temple and we also had enough time to take pictures and had enough for just me and my husband to visit on our own. I really recommend their service.
