This was an overall...
This was an overall excellent tour experience. Our tour guide Ahmed Faheem, a professional, kind and immensely experienced guide went into great detail about the 3 sites, High Dam, Philae Temple and Unfinished Obelisk and showcased impressive knowledge for both the history and culture. We were treated with respect and kindness both by him and our driver. Could not recommend enough.

Samir Gaber is an informative guide and I learned a lot about the sites I visited! I would recommend this tour if you want to visit these sites and gain a better understanding about Egyptian history.

A great excursion with a knowledgeable guide
Emad was a friendly and extremely knowledgeable guide who answered all of our questions. The sites we visited were very interesting and we really enjoyed our half day tour! If we could leave three 5 star reviews we would.

It is convenient to go to main tourism place for a short time
I enjoyed this tour between the transfer time from Abu Simbel to Cairo. I was picked up at Aswan Airport and sent back. It is convenient for me to go to some of the main tourism place for a short time.
But it might be kind to make clear that extra rate is needed if someone takes pick-up and drop-off service from and to the airport both. (I agree to be charged because the airport is far.)

Philae Temple, High Dam, & Unfinished Obelisk
A great tour! Rasha the guide was incredibly knowledgeable, bringing the history of Philae Temple, the Aswan High Dam, and the Unfinished Obelisk to life. Everything was well-organized, and even though the tour has a lot of quick stops I never felt rushed. Their passion and friendliness made the entire day enjoyable and engaging. As a solo female I have been cautious about going to ATMs on my own for safety, but when I asked to stop at one on the way back they were happy to! I was also running a bit late (10 minutes) coming into Aswan and it was no problem, they didn’t even mention it! Would recommend!

Beautiful Aswan and amazing tour !
We had a nice tour. Fathy our guide was really kind and after we got picked up. We were hunger and wanted to eat something local. He took us to a local place. Didn’t allow us to pay. If you have time crunch half day tour at Aswan is good.
