Fantastic Experience

Antoinette_J, Aug 2023

We were picked up early in the morning in a comfortable air conditioned van. The drive was long but so worth it to experience the magnificent temples at Abu Simbel. Our guide, Michael Samy, was very pleasant and knowledgeable and even got us some falafel to eat. The visit to the Nubian Village was lovely as well as the boat ride across the Nile to get there. Great experience overall!

Excellent tour organised...

Excellent tour organised by Heba, who was responsive and incredibly helpful with our tour and also gave us advice on travelling to different areas of Egypt arranged our transport. Our tour guide Hisham was wonderful and very knowledgeable about Nubian history. The boat ride to reach the Nubian village was beautiful.

Exceptional private tour to Abu Simbel & Nubian village

Scott_L, Dec 2022

This was a big tour day however very worth it! Our first driver, Hany, picked us up at the dock at 430am for the 3 hour drive to Abu Simbel. We saw a beautiful sunrise at the Mirage WC stop and had a coffee. Hany was very kind and explained the various sites along the way. Once in Abu Simbel Waleed toured us around the temple exteriors and provided ample time to see the interiors. On the drive back to Aswan, Hany stopped once again at the Mirage rest stop so we could have a midway break and see actual mirages in the desert! The Nubian Village tour was a highlight and so pleasant to be on the Nile River aboard a boat with our very friendly guide taking in the various houses, buildings and cataract along the Nile. Mohammed delivered us back to the hotel dock. This is a must tour if you are staying in the Aswan area!

Excellent driver and guide speaking in impeccable French

As the trip is quite long and the road is sometimes damaged and if possible return in the day because at night there are many trucks and visibility is really poor
