Emo tours and Viator SUCKS in Egypt!!
We bought an ENGLISH speaking tour! When the driver showed up 20 minutes late he couldn’t speak any ENGLISH at all. No way in hell where we going to go 180 miles to Abu Simbel Eygypt
In the desert with a driver that could not speak English!! We did not go. We feel that it was a bait and switch situation. We have asked for a refund and you will not grant a refund. YOU did not deliver what we bought and paid for. We are very disappointed with your service and product. Emo Tours lied to you and me in what they delivered. We expect a refund. If we do not we will never use your services again nor give any referral to aviator! Bill Preuss

aswan and abu simbel with aladdino
we booked a whole egypt tour with egypt portal, and we were picked up by aladdino for a day tour in aswan: we visited the temples, his immense knowledge of egyptology and their ancient language is amazing, he constantly tell us what they mean etc.. next day we went to abu simbel, 4 hour drive from aswan, all was taken care of, so the drive was the smoothest possible. thank you aladdino !

good and informative day
Simey arrived on time, was cheerful and informative about Abu Simbel. It was a long hard day but really the only way to go unless you want to pay to fly there. I felt safe

Beautiful History, Worst Guide
Abu Simbel is one of the highlights of any tourist visiting and exploring the magnificent history of Egypt. Thanks to our not so good guide who hardly cared to share any information. During Abu Simbel tour he spoke for hardly 1 min in total. Our future guides in Egypt told us about Abu Simbel later

I took the driver option
It is a long car ride, but once you get there, it is so worth it! I ride with Amir and he was a good driver

Did what it said on tin, not worth the time but drive fine,
The driver was fine, didn’t have much English but offered water and to stop for coffee and if we wanted aircon. or not. He didn’t seem too pushy to stop anywhere we didn’t want to and was ready to go when we were.
Not reviewing temple as it’s for the drive only, but in my opinion probably least impressive comparing giza and luxor.
The drive was great though! Quick and felt safe. Only negative was driver was eating something smelly like egg or rice cake on the drive back and it was turning my stomach a bit. We got what we paid for, 4/5.

Bella esperienza ma faticosa
Dalla motonave ancorata al porto di Assuan, siamo partiti alle 4:30 del mattino alla volta di Ben Simbel. 4 ore di viaggio, arrivati in un bellissimo sito, ma con una marea di gente….. fila per entrare nel primo, fila per il santuario, fila per entrare nel secondo (Nefertiti), fila per il santuario, fila per i bagni!!!! Insomma si è perso un sacco di tempo per le visite. Finito la visita dopo due orette, praticamente file azzerate!!! Quindi dalla mia esperienza ho dedotto che si poteva partire alle 6/6:30, senza fare una levataccia e godersi di più il sito che meritava un po’ più di tranquillità!!!

Комфортная поездка, хороший автомобиль
Хороший автомобиль с хорошо работающим кондиционером, что весьма важно, когда ты едешь по пустыне. Водитель был не разговорчив, и это не минус. Заявленная в описании тура вода не была предоставлена. Это мелочь конечно, купили воду сами (правда, по туристической цене). Просто уберите воду из описания. Не понравилось, что по пути была остановка а чай-кофе-туалет, которой мы не хотели воспользоваться (не надо было). Но вот наш водитель захотел, и явно не торопился, пока мы его ждали в машине. Оценку не снижаю, т.к. плюсы перевешивают.

Good day trip
Very fast driver but we did get to Abu Simbel in 3 hours. Driver was friendly and stopped for bathroom breaks. Easy to communicate with via WhatsApp.
