Wonderful experience in Abu Simbel - The trip was amazing, the van to go was on time, really good, and the rout was very nice. George Adel and Emad did a wonderful job by keeping sure, all the trip everyone was comfortable, and explaining all the details about Egipt, Aswan and Abu Simbel, in order to get there to know and recognize all the history and details of the temples.
Highly recommended!!

Temple Tour with an Exceptional Guide - The bus arrived right on time to pick us up. Mirna, the agency representative, came into our hotel and stayed with us until the bus arrived, which was very thoughtful. The bus itself was comfortable and well-maintained.
When we reached our destination, Mirna guided us to the ticket counter since our tour package didn’t include the tickets. He then introduced us to our tour guide, explained where and when we would meet him at the end of the tour, and made sure everything was clear before leaving. He was attentive and helpful throughout.
Our guide, Mohammed Ibrahim, was truly the highlight of the trip. His energy and enthusiasm were contagious—he’s passionate, funny, and incredibly knowledgeable. I enjoyed every moment of the tour. Although he didn’t accompany us inside the temples, he gave us a thorough explanation using pictures and detailed descriptions, which enriched the experience.

I think the value for money is good! - I was worried if they would pick me up, so I communicated with them beforehand on the What's App and they picked me up without any problems.
Ours was a small group of 5 people in 3 groups, and we picked up each group from 4:00 to 4:30, and arrived safely after 8:00 with a toilet break along the way.
After waiting for ticket buyers and pre-guided tour, we entered the temple from 9am to 10am, but it was good because it was hot in the middle of summer and relatively empty.
On the way back, I had no problem and was dropped off at the hotel around 14:00. I think this is a good value tour for money for those who want to do it themselves in their free time, with only a transfer and a little guide in advance!

A Memorable Visit to Abu Simbel - The guided tour to Abu Simbel was exceptional. The temples were even more impressive in person than in pictures. The guide was knowledgeable, making the history come alive. It was a long trip, but every minute was worth it. 🏛️✨

Abu Simble - Me and my teenage son did the Tour with a small group. The staff was very attentive and kind, the guide Mahmoud (Abu Simbel) and the manager Merna provided a great service.
Mahmoud speaks very fluently Portuguese and Spanish.
I recommend the services.

Fantastic Tour to Abu Simbel - A half-day tour to Abu Simbel quite pleasant. Traveling in a comfortable van makes all the difference. Our Guide in Abu Simbel was amazing and leaves no details missing. I recommend this tour.

Funny Guy, but very long Trip. - Its a very long Trip (3,5 h one way) and than just visiting for 2 hours. Also the Tourguides were 20 Minuten late and i would wish for more interesting knowledge. The Guy was funny and the bus was ok.

Guide never showed up - I’ve used Viator before with great satisfaction in Egypt and elsewhere world-wise, but the system failed entirely for this tour. Viator charged my account but, over three days; I repeatedly tried (by phone call, what’s app, text, email and app messaging ) to rach the local tour operator to confirm the pick up details. I never got a single response. I woke at 3 am to be ready for original 4 am pick up time but the pick up never came and I never got contacted by operator. I expect a full refund and other compensation from Viator.
