Abu Simbel Excursão de um dia de Luxor Small Group Tour com almoço

Visiting Abu Simbel is amazing. One of the most beautiful historical sites in the world. But doing with Nice tours as a day trip was a disaster. Don’t get me wrong as the drivers were fantastic but for a 14 hour round trip they put us in a local commuter van that failed both on AC and on comfort (think lowest basic economy you can find). The car was also close to overheating several times forcing the drivers to do whatever it took to keep us going. The Company then added a third staff member in Aswan, who said hello, and then proceeded to just take up more of our minimal legroom, sleeping both ways and not saying a word till he was dropped back home. Lunch was NOT in Aswan as advertised but at a local restaurant across from the site. When feedback was given to Nice tours on how uncomfortable the trip was, a minimal apology was offered. The day was spoiled by a poor locally run tour group who should have considered more the comfort of its customers given this was not a cheap trip. Beware if you book and who Viators farms this out to.

Eman was an amazing tour guide explaining everything in detail and her accent was amazing. She was very friendly and kind and very sweet. Highly recommend this tour

Ahmed was so sweet and thoughtful and such a gentleman who spoke very well about all the history and tried to make sure we were the best looked after we could possibly be.

It was a truly amazing day. The trip was long but very well worth it. The lunch box was very nice. The driver, AMR, was truly a professional and guide, Nana, was a very lovely companion. Adding a visit to the Temple of Philae in Aswan was a wonderful idea. Thank you very much for a safe and excellent trip.

Lita explained it to me very carefully and took some nice pictures. Thank you in the heat. The driver was also relieved to be driving safely.

I had a great experience to visit Abu Simbel. It is a long trip from Aswann, but it is worthy. The temple is very well reconstructed. My private guide was Ahmed Abdelwahab, he was great. Very interested in teaching about the egyptian culture and making sure to clarify any doubts. Additionaly a great photographer, kbowing the perfect spots.

Great visit, we were picked up at the place indicated upstream by email by our guide. Everything went well , good management despite a sandstorm on our return. Despite a high but common speed in Egypt, everything was done to have a good day

Pick up at 4h to wait 45 minutes on the road because it opens only at 5h, in the heat without air conditioning. If you want to go out and wait outside, it is with mosquitoes that you take to the air. The guide is nice and explains well, but what good is a guide if he can not go back with you to the temples explain to you .. so you will be entitled to an explanation on the road and that is all. An envelope will be given for the tips but if the quantity does not suit him he will not hesitate to come back to you asking more. Very unpleasant and spoiled the experience. No drinks or food. Not even water.

The pick up at KFC was punctual and we shared the Toyota van with 6 other guests. Our guide, Emad Aiad, provided all of us with an entertaining and fact fill tour. We highly recommend him . Even though we were picked up at 3:45am, the Abu Simbel highway opens up at 5am. It's a long drive. Important to get there before the 50+ passenger buses get there. We spent a sufficient amount of time at the temple We were there in beginning of May and it went over 104 F (40 C) in the early afternoon. The entrance tickets were provided by Nice tours. The tour held no surprises and it was very safe.

Ahmed Abdelewahab was our tour guide, he was very nice and knowledgeable. He brought us to Abu Simbel and took care of our group. Strongly recommended.
