Highly recommended - Very good driver, attentive, friendly and pending everything. He only speaks English but you understand him perfectly. Our Spanish-speaking guide was waiting for us there. Highly recommended travel and Abu Simbel guide with them.

The commute, the sites... - The commute, the sites were all great, only the guides provided for each location didnt fulfill the expectation. Hardly in 10 minutes they will give a brief and let us explore on our own in contrast to other companies guide who were giving detailed information about the sites. The best part of our trip was the driver Mohhamed as he was very gentle, helpful and made sure our transit was smoothest.

Good communication from tour operator, but no guide provided. Driver & vehicle was sub-par. - The good thing about the trip was that the operator as reachable and proactively communicated. That is what made the experience at least acceptable (rather than a poor service). The vehicle, the driver and service was sub-par. We were picked up at 3:30 AM. The driver was the slowest ever (every car overook us). They provided us with a snack and water bottle, and told us that guide will join us at Abu Simbel.. However, no guide ever turned up (per operator the guide fell sick). All tour passengers went off on their own and decided to meet up outside Abu Simbel at a fixed time as tour operator was not available, driver number was not provided and guide was missing. Tour operator did revert an hour later, and we all managed to get to the vehicle for the return trip.. and yes.. the driver was again very very slow. We asked him to put up AC in van, and it turned out that VAN was not equipped with AC. I am unsure if the reason of slowness was driver or was it just the vehicle.. Eventually.. we did reach Abu Simbel, and were dropped back to our hotel. Guide was not provided. But operator reached out to us and tried to arrange what he could using Whatsapp.

Un tour funzionale ma senza pretese - We booked a guided tour in Italian. The whole service was average and a bit too rushed especially on the site. Good assistance for the pick-up and drop-off though

Do your homework - Recommend vetting this service has upgraded its bus which needed cleaning. If you want to sleep in little longer perhaps get private drive r as we had a 3:15 pick up which seems excessively early. (Making for nearly we 13 hour trip). Abu Simbel is amazing but we also couldn’t find ish guide after we got the tickets.

Poor communication and lack of organization - Unfortunately, the tour lacked clear communication and proper organization. There was no clarity about how much time we would actually have to visit Abu Simbel. The guide initially told us we would have 1 hour, amd then the group returned to the visitor center. No clear meeting point was communicated by the guide, the driver, or the assistant. As a result, several of us were left without knowing where to go. We had to contact the tour operator ourselves, and it took about one hour for them to finally inform us where the driver was waiting. To make matters worse, at the end of the tour the driver directly asked for a tip, which made some guests feel uncomfortable and pressured. Given the importance of this site, better coordination, clearer instructions, and more professional conduct are essential.

Guided tour is a scam - 1)Instead of 4 Am, they called at 3.15 am and asked to be ready in 15 min. 2)Tour including guide is a scam. Guides are not allowed inside, so we saw outlr guide max 3 min when we got off the bus. 3)It was not a small group, it was a big intercity bus. 4)No one in the bus could speak English, so we didnt know the breaks between rides. 5)No time for visit and drink somethng total 8.30-10.30 am can be used, by yourself.

Non-existent tour - The tour operator is not responding so we cancelled the reservation. I think it no longer exists, it would be appropriate to delete it
