We booked the Silver Tour operated by Eyes of Egypt. We are completely satisfied with their customer service and the tour. The car is clean and the driver Mario is very nice and accommodated.

Comfortable Abu Simbel day tour

Arkadiusz_R, Dec 2023

We enjoyed our tour to Abu Simbel. Sultan (tel. 01012540494) is a friendly and professional driver working in the tourism sector for 20+ years, with the record of 300,000 km in his new car just in the last two years. Communication with Eyes of Egypt was excellent. Highly recommended private transfer option, also for families.

Thank you

Italian guide, yes or no?

Fabio_L, Jan 2026

The trip very comfortable and safe, the drivers very attentive and quiet. Arrived on the spot they tell us that the guide in Italian was not there and they proposed guide in English. To our "No" they looked for a solution, first they assign us a guide who did not know Italian (in our opinion to stall) then they find an Italian guide, who probably exhausted from the thousand services he had performed in the morning, not the maximum spoke to machine not remembering what he had already said and what not. Not the best! The fantastic temple is still worth visiting
