Amazing Experience
Hany was a great driver! Gave us a lot of info on the way to Abu Simbel from Aswan. Was cool to learn a little bit about the history of the Nubian people and the sights in the Sahara Desert. Would highly recommend this tour especially with Hany.

Excellent All Around!
We did this tour on March, 20 2026. After cruising the Nile we were excited to round out that trip with a tour of Abu Simbel. Hany made this process smooth, fast and relaxing. Once our tour was confirmed he was communicative and kind, picking us up directly from the lobby of our ship. He arrived early with water & snacks in the back seat for us The car was clean and comfortable, so much so that I was able to sleep for several hours of our journey - something my husband can attest that I never feel relaxed enough to do. Once we arrived it became clear that our 4 am pickup time from Aswan was worth it as we were one of the first people at the temples. Our guide met us and explained what we would see (guides cannot explain inside the temples) and we had time to explore getting photos that I never thought possible before the crowds descended. By the time we took a second visit to the temples an hour later there was a wait to get inside. It was clear that Hany’s efforts to get us there early paid off again! We left happy and made our 1430 flight to Cairo without issue. Add this tour to the end of your cruise and you will be happy you did!

An absolutely fantastic...
An absolutely fantastic experience visiting Abu Simbel with Hany our driver and Hany our guide. Our driver was kind, considerate, and very knowledgeable, providing information and snacks across our journey. The car was clean and comfortable for the long journey. Our guide at Abu Simbel showed us points of interest, whilst also giving us time to explore on our own.

Well organised and very enjoyable day out
Good pre trip confirmation with driver details and pick up confirmation night before. Driver was waiting at the agreed time and gave me snacks, juice and water for the journey. 3 1/4 hour journey with a 10 minute stop at the halfway point. Knowledgeable guide was waiting on our arrival. Note that guides aren’t allowed in the temples themselves but he gave me a thorough briefing with large scale pictures of the carvings before I entered. After much research I opted for an 8am start and we arrived 11.15. This worked well and the site wasn’t crowded. Most tours seem to be between 9-10.30 and we saw a lot of buses going back as we drove down. Would need a very early start (4am?) to beat the crowds down there which didn’t seem sensible. All in all a very good day out.

Abu Simbel , private tour
I did a private day trip to Abu Simbel from Aswan, and being solo made it perfectly relaxed and flexible—no group rush, just me taking my time. The temples blew me away. The Great Temple’s huge facade with the four massive Ramses II statues carved into the mountain is stunning and imposing up close. Inside, the detailed reliefs and halls are incredible, especially the inner sanctuary with its mystical vibe and famous sun alignment story. The smaller Nefertari Temple is equally gorgeous, with elegant statues and beautiful carvings. Big thanks to both Hanys! Driver Hany picked me up on time in a comfy, AC car, drove the 3-hour each-way route smoothly, kept me hydrated, shared fun facts, and stopped for photos—his friendly professionalism made the drive enjoyable. At the site, local guide Hany was excellent—knowledgeable and patient, he explained the history, 1960s relocation, symbolism, and hidden details, answering all my questions while giving me plenty of time. Early arrival meant fewer crowds and beautiful morning light for peaceful photos and reflection. Everything was seamless and well-organized. Highly recommend this private tour—the temples are ancient wonders, and with driver Hany and guide Hany, it was stress-free and unforgettable. 10/10!

Wonderful day trip to Abu Simbel
Hany was a wonderful driver and pointed out lots of interesting sights along the road from Aswan. He speaks very good English and we enjoyed his company on the long drive. Hany provided snacks and drinks and we stopped for coffee en route. Abu Simbel was superb and the guide there was very good too. Although the 3 hour drive each way is a long day trip, it is well worth it.

Great day at Abu Simbel
Very well organised and the communication was excellent, confirm pick up and if we wanted any changes because it was a private hire. Honey our guide in Abu Simbel was excellent, chirpy and well informed.

Wonderful Abu Simbel Temples
The whole day is magical! No photographs can quite do the temples at Abu Simbel justice! The knowledge of Hany our guide and the friendliness, professionalism and knowledge of Hany (two different people both called Hany 😎) was beyond our expectations.

Ask for Hany
This was the perfect way to travel! Hany was waiting for us at Aswan Airport, safely drove us to explore the amazing Abu Simbel temples, and then dropped us off in Aswan. The vehicle was spotless, and Hany’s careful driving made us feel completely secure the entire trip. He is wonderfully sweet and went above and beyond by explaining the interesting things we passed on the drive. If you need a transfer, ask for Hany!
