Bei templi ma viaggio stancante
I due templi di Abu Simbel sono belli ma il viaggio è faticoso viste le 7 ore da trascorrere in bus per circa un'ora e quindici minuti circa di visita ai templi. Andrebbe concesso più tempo per ammirare i templi, considerando anche la folla di gente che arriva più o meno contemporaneamente. Inoltre abbiamo atteso il pick up per oltre 40 minuti rispetto all' orario che ci era stato comunicato

Supi dupi
Alles war super, es war sogar ein Guide dabei, den wir nicht gebucht hatten. Die Fahrt war relativ lang, aber gut aushaltbar und man könnte gut schlafen.

Ahmed was a great guide! The tour went really well.
Reading the comments the day before the tour I almost canceled, but didn't because it was too late for the refund. Thank god, this was great tour and nothing was so wrong as other said.
My hotel was on the island and I choosed via whatsapp to come to starting point at 4am for free. Public ferry works all night and it cost 100egp. It took some time to pick up other people, and we got to Abu Simbel at 9:15, bought tickets, entered, got to the temples and there our guide Ahmed talked some 20min. After that we got 1:15 to enter temples and do whatever. It's enough, you can take it slowly.
Long day, but 100% worth it. Don't forget you are going through the desert most of the time, so you have amazing views as well.
I admit, they could be more organized and not send you the messages about pick up at 11pm night before, that was the only problem I had.

エジプトのツアー
ホテルでのバスのピックアップが1時間遅れ。現地到着後も旅行会社の人間と思われる人物が何も先導できず、混乱する。ガイドありとのことだったが、入場前に顔合わせしたガイドは入場するタイミングになって消えていってしまった。20人くらい参加者がいたが結局各々で中をみて回ることに。神殿の見学時間も予定では2時間だったが、実際は1時間半くらいしかなく、帰りも12時解散予定だったが、ホテルへ戻ってきたのは17時だった。何を評価すればいいのかわからない。

酷すぎる
ツアーガイドがめちゃくちゃ
まだトイレに行っている人がいるのに、先に行ってしまう。
集合場所やチケットのことはなんの説明もない。
集合時間を自分で指定して自分が守らない。

Did not get picked up. No refund either.
Asked our driver/guide’s WhatsApp number at 10:37 pm. No respnse. Went to bed. Waiting at 3:50 am at the hotel door. Realized that they sent a message at 11:06 pm that the pick up tjme was 3:20. Also realized that they sent a guide texted at 3:21 and 3:24 to inquire our whereabouts. They said they could not return to pick up us. Neither Viator nor the operator were willing to refund us. I explained that they should have called us instead of texting us. We were up and waiting in our room. No explanation other than they tried but we failed to show up. I wish they responded my inquiry by telling me to wait for pickup confirmation and that the driver/guide’s would have called us instead.
Wish they were better at Communication. They asked for copies of passports twice, 10 days apart. Wish they were more organized. .

Long drive & rushed experinece
The drive each way was about 4+ hours. The pick up was well coordinated from our hotel at early morning about 4.30am. I could only wish we start little later to avoid huge crowds at abu simbel, as an hour after the visit when we are exiting we saw no one entering. This could give a better tour experience worth full for 8hr travel. We met the guide directly at the site.

Unfortunately, the tour...
Unfortunately, the tour was not well organized. We were informed that the meeting time was 4:00 PM, but the bus arrived at 5:00 PM with no prior communication or explanation. Additionally, the tour was advertised as a small group, but there were more than 20 participants. During the visit, we were given only brief explanations and then left to explore on our own, which did not meet our expectations. Overall, the experience could be improved with better organization, clearer communication, and a more professional approach.

Not as expected
The guided tour was not very informative as the guide only told things at the enterence of Abu Simbel and talked very quickly. We highly recommend you to take the non guided tour as the tour only includes taking you to Abu Simbel and then back to Aswan. The bus was old and was not comfortable, also at the website it says that there will be a small group but we travelled with a big bus. The tour started very early around 4 am and we came back around 3 pm, lunch is not included and there was no lunch break. It would be better if the tour started later and include a lunch break because the duration of the tour is very long.

Would not recommend l
Was told to meet at the dock at 345 am. Bus arrives at 4:15 am, with no communication at all. Bus finally leaves at 4:45 am. Only stayed at Abu simble for 1 hour. 8 hour ride for 1 hour activity, not worth it
