Great experience with Ahmed Sony for Abu Simbel tour. Witty and punctual.
Nice experience with our guide Ahmed sony. Experienced guide who showed us all the tempels.
I would like to strongly express my complaint about this tour company. I traveled from Japan to Cairo, and from there made the long journey to Aswan in order to visit the Abu Simbel Temples — a place I had always dreamed of seeing at least once in my life. However, after coordinating work and school schedules, my family and I only had a single day available for this trip. It was an extremely important and irreplaceable opportunity for us. On the day of the tour, we woke up at 3:00 AM and were waiting in front of our hotel by 4:00 AM for the driver to arrive. But after 15 minutes, then 30 minutes, the driver still never showed up. Other drivers nearby even became concerned and tried to help us, yet the assigned driver and the tour company never contacted us at all. Feeling that something was clearly wrong, I reached out to the tour company via WhatsApp. However, the only response I received was, “I don’t know.” While my family stood there feeling anxious and deeply disappointed, I desperately kept contacting both the Viator operator and the tour company for help. Despite this, no meaningful support or proper action was taken. We were completely abandoned. What we lost was not just money. We lost precious vacation time, valuable moments with our family, and what should have been a once-in-a-lifetime memory. For anyone considering booking with this company, I sincerely do not want you to go through the same experience we did. Before making a reservation, please seriously ask yourself whether this is truly a company you can trust. There are many other well-known and responsible tour companies in Egypt that value their customers and provide proper support. At the very least, I can say with confidence that I absolutely cannot recommend this tour company. ———————————- 私はこのツアー会社に対して、強く抗議したいと思います。 私は日本からエジプト・カイロへ行き、そこからさらに長時間かけてアスワンへ移動し、人生で一度は見たかったアブシンベル神殿を訪れる予定でした。 しかし、会社や学校の休みを調整して確保できた滞在日は、たった1日だけ。失敗の許されない、とても大切な旅行でした。 当日は朝3時に起床し、午前4時にはホテル前でドライバーを待っていました。 しかし、15分待っても、30分待っても、ドライバーは現れません。周囲の別のドライバーたちが心配して声をかけてくれるほどでしたが、肝心の担当ドライバーやツアー会社からは、一切連絡がありませんでした。 異常を感じ、WhatsAppで旅行会社へ連絡しましたが、返ってきたのは「分からない」という無責任な対応だけ。 家族が不安と悲しみで沈んでいく中、私は必死にViatorのオペレーターや旅行会社へ連絡を続けました。しかし、まともなサポートも状況確認もなく、完全に放置されました。 この旅行で失ったのは、お金だけではありません。 限られた休暇、家族との大切な時間、そして一生の思い出になるはずだった体験です。 これから予約を検討している方には、私と同じ思いをしてほしくありません。 予約する前に、「本当にこの会社で大丈夫なのか」を、どうか真剣に考えてください。 エジプトには、もっと実績があり、責任感を持って対応してくれる有名なツアー会社が数多くあります。 少なくとも、私はこのツアー会社を絶対におすすめしません。
We're sorry, but when we noticed your messages, we contacted the driver, and he told us that he went to your hotel but didn't find you.
The driver was very friendly. The van seats were uncomfortable enough for a nearly 4-hour one-way trip. Upon arrival the place is impressive.
Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re sorry the van seats were uncomfortable for such a long trip. We appreciate your comments and will work on improving the overall experience. We’re happy the destination was amazing for you.
Ahmed, our guide did a good job explaining the history. We visited the philae temple and Nubian Village. Had a good time.
Ahmed sony . Very good experience with this guide. Very professional
Ahmed song was my tour guide. He was very friendly and knowledgeable. My friend and enjoyed learning so much from him. He was right on time also
Ahmed Sony He is very friendly and a very good tour guide. He explained a lot about the history and I learned a lot. He organised the trip very well and made sure everyone was having fun. Our trip to Abu simple temples was more enjoyable and less stressful because we had Ahmed Sony as our tour guide. I would definitely recommend him as a tour guide.
Aned sony he was the best guide in aswan Egyptologist answer about all asking thanks ahmed
Our visit to Abu Simple was truly unforgettable — one of the highlights of our trip to Egypt. The temples are simply breathtaking, and seeing them in person is an experience that photos can’t fully capture. The history, the scale, and the incredible preservation left us in awe. What made this experience even more special was our amazing guide. From the very beginning, Ahmed Suny was kind, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. He brought the history to life in such an engaging and easy-to-understand way, which made the visit even more meaningful for both adults and children. Everything was perfectly organized, and we felt comfortable and well taken care of throughout the entire trip. Ahmed was also very attentive, making sure everyone was enjoying the experience and had time to take it all in. We highly recommend visiting Abu Simbel — and if you can, do it with a guide like ours. It truly makes all the difference!
