Ontdek een deel van Egypte dat de meeste nieuwe bezoekers missen tijdens een privédagtrip naar de Abu Simbel-tempels vanuit Aswan. U blijft koel en slaat het gedoe van autoverhuur over met privévervoer met airconditioning, en geniet van de kans om zoveel vragen te stellen als u wilt aan uw privégids. Bovendien geniet u van de vrijheid om uw reisschema aan te passen. Opmerking: om uw boeking te bevestigen heeft u een kopie van uw paspoort nodig. Update deze tijdens het boekingsproces
Volgens de gevraagde tijd wordt u opgehaald bij uw hotel in Aswan en rijdt u naar het zuiden van Aswan, wat ongeveer 3 uur rijden is om te genieten van de Abu Simbel-dagtour vanuit Aswan met een voertuig met airconditioning. De twee tempels van Abu Simbel worden met hun unieke stijl beschouwd als de meesterwerken van het oude Egypte. Ze weerspiegelen de glorie en grootsheid van het nieuwe koninkrijk. De Egyptische regering en UNESCO besloten samen te werken om deze tempels te redden van de overstroming. De Tempel van Ramses II was gewijd aan de vier universele goden Ptah, Re-Her-Akhtey, Amun-Re en aan Ramses II zelf. De grote tempel van Abu Simbel wordt ook wel de Zonnetempel van Ramses II genoemd. De tempel van koningin Nefertari wordt ook wel de Tempel van Hathor genoemd, die de vrouw was van de Zonnegod, dus op symbolische wijze zijn de twee tempels, die van Ramses II en die van Nefertari, breng Ramses II, Nefertari, Hathor en de Zonnegod samen als één. Breng daar ongeveer 3 uur door en neem dan de terugweg naar Aswan.

It was great experience and the tour guide whose name is Magdy is passionate with his job and specially with Abu Simbel. Everything was just it was referred to the program and the organization was great. Trust this tour office.

Read the reviews. Good, easy trip to the temples. The driver is very convenient - he was quiet and kind. Didn’t explain what was happening though. When we got there, another man walked us from the car to the ticket counter, where he scanned us in. We then walked to the temples, where our guide met us. He gave us a 10-min lesson on the temples (much appreciated) and then told us we had an hour to explore before we had to go back to the car. Post experience, I’m seeing other people had 2 hours - not sure why we only had 1! I wish we had more time. Once we left the guide, he moved on to new tour groups, which is fine, but we never went back to him with our questions because we didn’t want to interrupt his other groups. All in all, this is “private” but it’s not like other private tours. It’s not personal and you don’t get the opportunity to make a connection with your guide. That’s fine, but just know that before going in. Would I do it again? Sure. Temples are amazing and it’s worth the trip. Would I pay for the guide? No.

We booked a private Abu Simbel tour through Viator. Abu Simbel itself is absolutely worth the trip, but our experience was mixed due to the early morning logistics. Our pickup was more than 25 minutes late, whic at 4:30am was frustrating — especially as we were coordinating a private boat transfer from Elephantine Island back to the pickup point. The start felt rushed, including having to quickly cross the street to meet the vehicle, and a few early stops (like for gas) made things feel less organized than we expected. That said, once underway, the experience improved. Our guide, Dahlia, was a highlight — communicative, organized, and clearly working to keep the day on track. Overall, a good experience with strong guiding, but the early logistics did not meet expectations for a private tour.

Driver is very nice, efficient, caring. The car is comfortable enough for 7 hours drive, with good air conditioning. The guide in Abu Simbel is also very helpful and efficient. We have an excellent experience.

We did this visit 15 March. Our driver was Mohammed who drove very safely and with care. He is excellent. We were amongst the first on site. It's a solid drive but worth it, not only Abu Simbel, but also the desert and huge impact of irrigation. We did not take the lunch. Our hotel had provided a breakfast box.

Super entspannte privat Tour, neuer klimatisierte PKW der Marke Geely. Fahrer war pünktlich und wusste uns zu Unterhalten. Abseits der Busse und Massen waren wir zeitig in Abu Simbel. Sehr zu empfehlen.

Good driver, nice car, on time pick up, enough time was available at the temple. Highly recommended.

As others pointed out, the tour includes only the driver and the guide is waiting for you on site and gives you 15 min explanation. You have 2 hr to explore Abu Simbel which is beautiful and magnificent. As long as you are aware of this, and accept it, it is a good tour. Lunch included is a traditional Egyptian food which was surprisingly good. The driver did not speak English well, but was very nice and accommodating

Great tour, super informative guide. The guides are not allowed inside the actual temples but we were given thorough explanation on the car ride over which made the experience inside the temples so much better Its an early pick up, long 6hour round trip drive for only ~ 1.5hrs at the site but wow is Abu Simbel worth it. I would not skip out on this because of the time commitment

We are on a Nile cruise and had the choice between flying for $585 per person or arranging this trip, taking a group of 4 on a 3 hour drive to and from Abu Simbel. While 3 hrs seems long, our guide, Zach, made it enjoyable, educational, fun, insightful and above all, clear. His English is excellent, he speaks slowly, he's astute, follows American politics, and is clearly intelligent and well-educated. Yes, the group who flew got back to the ship earlier, but at dinner, we ended up explaining Abu Simbel to them bc we had learned so much from Zach. Always felt safe, driver was very careful and drove with caution. We arrived earlier than the cruise group and the temples weren't very crowded. Warning: no guides are allowed inside temples, so make sure you get a good explanation before you walk in. Fortunately, Zach provided that for us so our visit was very rich.
