Very Well organized tour

Very well organized tour. I was a bit worried after reading some comments about timing and organization, but everything went smoothly with this company. The pickup was exactly on time, the drive was comfortable with short stops along the way, and we had around two hours to visit Abu Simbel, which was enough to explore both temples. The driver was professional and everything was clearly arranged. Overall a great experience and I would recommend this tour

No issues with van pick...

No issues with van pick up and drop off at my hotel. Booked the shared van with no tour included for Abu Simbel. Everything went smooth and had plenty of time at Abu Simbel to walk around and take pictures.

Without problems

Very friendly excursion. The departure was smooth and almost on time. Not much communication from the drivers on the day of the excursion but everything went well beforehand. Small detail: no bottle of water provided (contrary to what was stated). Think carefully about what to hydrate.
