All Aswan Tours & Excursions in 2026

I loved the flexibility of departure! Everyone leaves Aswan at 4 am but by going later, we had almost no crowds. It was a very relaxing van ride with available chargers and nice drivers. The lunch on the way back was excellent - best fish I’ve had in a long time. Definitely recommend!

The driver was respectful. Arrived promptly. He didn't make me feel uncomfortable as a solo female traveller. He's also a careful driver, avoiding road bumps and potholes. He sign posted me to the ticket stand and didn't just drop me off at the car park. He did not smoke in the car. I will recommend Mohammed from Nubia. I had read bad reviews about Emo tours prior to travelling and I was avoiding them. I only realised when the driver arrived that it was an emo tours tour. I found Abu Simbel underwhelming and not worth the hype. I prefer Karnak and Luxor Temples the statues and every other thing.

A good way to travel from Aswan to Luxor and seeing a few sites along the way. Our driver was pleasant and our two guides were very informative but did tended to speak very quickly. So much information and names to remember and it adds so much more to the trip understanding what we were actually looking at rather than just seeing cravings on the wall.

As others pointed out, the tour includes only the driver and the guide is waiting for you on site and gives you 15 min explanation. You have 2 hr to explore Abu Simbel which is beautiful and magnificent. As long as you are aware of this, and accept it, it is a good tour. Lunch included is a traditional Egyptian food which was surprisingly good. The driver did not speak English well, but was very nice and accommodating

Definitely recommend this tour. We opted for the 3 day cruise as we had an already packed schedule and this one worked into our timeline perfectly. Enjy organized everything exactly as stated in the itinerary and was very responsive throughout the entire cruise making sure everything was going okay and giving us our schedules for the following day. The boat itself was wonderful with extremely friendly staff and great food!! can’t recommend the food enough. we knew ahead of time that our day in luxor was going to be a long one as you are scheduled to visit 4 temples in one day (worth it) and it definitely was long but our guide for the day, Maria, was so lovely and friendly it made it all better. She regaled us with stories of the pharaohs and even had us acting out as certain pharaohs and their family relations and really made it memorable. we added the hot air balloon experience and highly recommend. the views over luxor are insane, you fly right over so many temples! i was scared of the balloon before riding but it was not bad at all! We had an excellent pilot and smooth landing. Thanks to Enjy again for being there for our every question and organizing the most perfect days sailing the nile. Our tour group became one big family during the trip where we regularly hung out with each other on the boat and took many group photos for great memories

Reading the comments the day before the tour I almost canceled, but didn't because it was too late for the refund. Thank god, this was great tour and nothing was so wrong as other said. My hotel was on the island and I choosed via whatsapp to come to starting point at 4am for free. Public ferry works all night and it cost 100egp. It took some time to pick up other people, and we got to Abu Simbel at 9:15, bought tickets, entered, got to the temples and there our guide Ahmed talked some 20min. After that we got 1:15 to enter temples and do whatever. It's enough, you can take it slowly. Long day, but 100% worth it. Don't forget you are going through the desert most of the time, so you have amazing views as well. I admit, they could be more organized and not send you the messages about pick up at 11pm night before, that was the only problem I had.

Our ship “Amwaj Livingstone” was one of the best cruise ships on the Nile, full window view from the room. Great service and plenty of delicious meals. Well covered Excursions, generally starting very early in the morning, but absolutely worth it. A good guide makes a lot of difference! The extra trip to Abu Simbel started at 04:00 am and included total of 7 hours car ride. The temple was amazing, but the trip can be tiring. The agent “Egypt Unlimited” was very professionally organized and very helpful. We’d recommend them to anyone coming to Egypt.

We booked Ahmed through Viator for a Luxor to Hurghada car transfer. Plenty of communication from the office and the driver. Super professional, vehicle was modern, comfortable. Ahmed was super friendly, good English and so happy he offered the side excursion to the Temple of Dendera... It would not be worth the trip alone, but as a side trip, it is extraordinary and in such a brilliant state. Can highly recommend Ahmed. His young son accompanied us for the journey, his first time to the beach side - lovely touch.
