Decent tour but the extra for guide is waste
Don’t take the guided tour, it’s a scam. They only brief you about the site before going, that is something you’ll find on the internet anyway.

Amazing Tour Worth!! Book NOW!!
Had an amazing trip, we got there early so we were able to miss the long lines by the time we were leaving. Our tour guide was so knowledgeable and had so much information he provided to us about Abu Simbel. I highly recommend.

Amazing Abu Simbel Experience
Amazing experience! This tour arrives before all the big buses so you get some time with Abu Simbel with just a few others. My guide was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic to all questions we had. There is also no hidden fees on the day, besides the entrance fee to Abu Simbel which is standard with all tours so this was truly value for money!

Best Guide
Hany was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and professional throughout the tour. He explained the fascinating history of ancient Egypt in an interesting and easy-to-understand way, making every visit more meaningful and enjoyable.

You need to go see the...
You need to go see the place, it's beautiful. The ride from aswan is about 3h30 to go and 3h30 to come back. You have about 1h30 at the place. The guide Abdul lets you go inside the temple alone (they are not aloud to come in), makes a brief explanation on the place for about 15 min and then takes a few pictures if you want. The visit is very quick, it's the car time that is long. You will wait at a boarder in the morning after your pickup for around 40 min and no one tells you why, you just wait. We found out after that the boarder opens at 5:00, so why did they come pick us up at 4:00 in the morning ? On the way back, we got a flat on one of the weels of the car, the drivers made it fast to replace it and were very professionnal.

Amazing Abu Simbel
Our tour to Abu Simbel was unforgettable, all thanks to Mustafa. He is an exceptionally warm, educated, and passionate guide with a profound knowledge of the temple's history. What made it extra special was the wonderful teaching material he shared with us via WhatsApp during the tour, giving us great resources to keep learning. If you want a guide who truly brings ancient history to life, Mustafa is the absolute best!
