As per requested time will pick you up from your hotel in Aswan and drive to the south of Aswan which is around 3hrs drive to enjoy Abu Simbel day tour from Aswan by air-conditioned vehicle. The two Temples of Abu Simbel, with their unique style, are considered to be the masterpieces of ancient Egypt. They reflect the glory and grandeur of the new Kingdom. The Egyptian government and UNESCO decided to co-operate in order to save these temples from the flood. The Temple of Ramses II was dedicated to the four universal gods Ptah, Re-Her-Akhtey, Amun-Re, and to Ramesses II himself. The great Abu Simbel temple is also called The Sun Temple of Ramses II.The Temple of Queen Nefertari is also Called Temple of Hathor who was the wife of the Sun God so in a symbolic way, the two Temples, that of Ramesses II and that of Nefertari, bring Ramesses II, Nefertari, Hathor and the Sun God together as one. Spend around 3 hours there then take the way back to Aswan.

Abu Simbel was amazing, probably the coolest place I've ever been. The driver picked us up on time, brought us to get snacks and drinks, took us to a great restaurant for lunch, and even took us to a spice shop after the trip. The car was nice with cold air conditioning. Would definitely recommend, Abu Simbel is a must see.

We chose the earliest tour to Abu Simbel. We got picked up at the hotel, and the guide was upset that the hotel agent was not helping him with finding us. He was pretty rude about verifying my name even after showing him the reservation multiple times and saying it was me and we were staying at the hotel. He did provide great information about what we were going to see because guides cant go inside but when we arrived at Abu Simbel he wouldn’t give us a pick up time, we are two young solo female travelers, and when asked for a time to ensure time of when we were departing, he proceeded to be very disrespectful in saying he would only give us 30 mins then if we wanted a time so bad when all we wanted was an estimated average fair time so we knew when to start heading out and ensure proper pick up. On the way back, the car was over heating, and we kept stopping , and they kept turning the car back on immediately, and the tour guide appeared to be pushing the driver to keep on going. I don’t know much about cars but i do know pushing a car thats over heating is not safe. He later took us to a spice place and they tried to sell us spices that were very overpriced! when we didn’t buy anything the tour guide appeared to be upset and stated we weren't going to find spices like their on the market etc… im sure he probably gets a commission with the attitude he showed.

We didn’t go on the tour and didn’t get our money back. There was no communication prior to the tour other than the confirmation email back in February. We totally forgot we booked this tour (we take accountability for that) but there was no email or message to confirm pick up time and place. The tour only reached out via email an hour after our tour started and said the driver was waiting for us. At that point we were already somewhere else. We asked both Viator and the tour company for a partial refund since we didn’t use their gas or services but they said too bad. I will never use Viator or suggest this tour company again.

Our tour guide (Dalia) and driver (Akmed Fathy) were both great. They were friendly, flexible, and fun. And they arrived on time, in an air-conditioned car. Dalia's English was excellent and she was very knowledgeable about Abu Simbel and also answered our questions about current Egyptian culture/life. We declined Dalia's offer to visit other places (e.g., a perfume factory/store, etc.) which didn't seem to be a problem. The only surprise was that guides are not allowed insides the temples at Abu Simbel, so Dalia showed us pictures outside of what we would see and then waited for us. It was still worth it, but different from our experience at other temples in Egypt.

We just took the car, and it was just what we needed. It was clean, the A/C was just right, and our driver was excellent. Once we got there we guided ourselves around the two landmarks (a little over an hour), and we were on the road after that.

Tour is well organized. Samir explained us all the information during the transfer by car leaving us totally free once arrived at the temple. Lunch included was ok. Very good driver and comfortable car

This A MUST if you are visiting Egypt. Abu Simbel is one of the most impressive temples in all of Egypt, and we booked this tour because we could set our own time. We aimed to be there at 10:00 am so that we can avoid the crowds from the cruises that arrive there at 8:00 am. It went better than expected, we were almost alone for the first 45 minutes and had the temple to ourselves to explore and take photos. The car service was fine, comfortable and cool. The guide was excellent, very good explanation, he took his time to answer all of our questions. It’s definitely worth paying the extra for the private guide.

An incredible experience. We had a very helpful guide (Marian Luka) and a driver too (Ahmrf Fathi). The car was in very good condition. I definitely recommend, an experiment to repeat.

Incredible experience, we took spectacular photos. We were the first to arrive due to our excellent driver Ahmed Fathi. Our guide, Mariam Luka, was amazing, explained everything to us and guided us throughout the trip. Definitely an experience to repeat and that I recommend.
