Excellent Tour with a Fantastic Guide
I had a great experience on this tour ,The AC car was very clean and comfortable, which made the journey enjoyable. Our guide Moataz was very knowledgeable, shared interesting information throughout the trip, and also had a great sense of humor that kept the atmosphere fun and engaging. The tour stops were well planned and gave us enough time to enjoy each place. Overall, a wonderful experience and highly recommended

A must do in ASSUAN
We had a splendid time with Omar ( guide) and Hani ( driver).
They are very kind and know English very well. Omar is prepared on everything we visited and he answered all our questions.
They even brought us to the quarry to see how local people extract the stole from the ground.
We really uppreciated their company and we suggest tourists to book this trip with them.

Great tour
Great day with a knowledgeable guide. Comfy transport and loved the perfume/aromatherapy section. Temple is well worth a visit and dam is fascinating.

I hate Viator
Connecting with Viator was useless when we needed to as our flight was late. Phoned a UK number, no human answered. Viator is useless. We should have been given guide's number immediately when we booked.
Mary our guide was excellent but I will not use Viator again. Not there when they were needed.

You can’t Miss the birth place of Horus guys
The Philae temple is the place of birth of Horus. You can’t miss this trip in Aswan. Our guide Moataz was a joy to be with. The Aswan dam is a feat of modern engineering.

Excellent tour and guide
Moataz was an excellent tour guide with amazing knowledge and passion. His English was very good and he explained everything to us in an easily understandable way and included us in his explanations which was great fun. He has a strong passion for Egypt and its history, he provided many interesting facts along these lines.
You will be very lucky if Moataz is your tour guide 😁

Wonderful Nighttime Experience of the Temple of Philae
This experience was absolutely incredible. Seeing the temple with a smaller crowd and the temple and hieroglyphs all light up to highlight each carving and the shadows made this experience unforgettable. The storytelling of the myths was an interesting experience, harkening back to verbal histories instead of the usual lectures.

Abu Simbel
A 3hr drive from Aswan, mainly on good and quiet roads through the desert
Both temples are fantastic and worth taking your time

Wonderful exploration of...
Wonderful exploration of Aswan major sites. Our guide Zak was the best guide we’ve had on our Egypt trip so far. Extremely knowledgeable, excellent English (he was concerned about this but his language skills were great). He pointed out all the details we would have missed on our own. Transit and other details of the tour were as expected.

When to visit

- Philae Temple is a must for history lovers.
- Boats to Philae Temple are exposed, and the site has little shade, so plan to bring plenty of sun protection.
- Since Philae Temple is an included stop on many trips to Abu Simbel, consider combining a visit to both attractions to make the most of your time.
