Abu Simbel worth to visit - We got this tour in our complete tour package. Mirna was 24h available to make sure we are enjoying our trip. The car and drivers are very professional. However I prefer this tour without tour guid.

Perfect - A complete, comfortable visit, with transportation from the hotel. A tour with good information, enough. And they didn't ask for an extra tip at the end of the tour, which is something that unfortunately never happened to me again on other tours.

Worth money - Mirna is a friendly stuff organising us as a eight people group to Abu Simbel temple. They picked up us from the hotel, which is convenient. Ahmed's explanation for the temple was quite good, we understood what we were going to see when we went into the temples. They offered us enough free time before they sent us back to hotel. The overall experience is adequate to the amount of money!

Simply Amazing - Absolutely an amazing experience. Cannot even believe it how smooth whole process went. Not to mention i have booked them only 4 hours prior and they picked me up on time. Very prifessional, made sure we were all happy on board. The driver even has made several stops on a way to make sure we all get our snacks. When have arrived at the destination everyone has been allocated to their private guid. I was in the group of 3 which have felt very pricate. The guide was very knowledgable and considering tour was at 4am, we were one of those who have arrived first and managed to get a lot of pictures in the empty temple's areas I have forgotten a name of the organiser. But remember it started with M. So thank you very much M, for this lovely experience.

Really good but not so good … - OK so I want to start by saying that I am very thankful to the person who helped me book my trip. I reserve a 30 minute before the pick up time at 3:30 in the morning. Mera I believe is the name of the person made sure to find me a space in one of the transportation and I was picked up 15 minutes after in my hotel at four in the morning if it was not for this person I would have missed my chance to go to the temple on this specific date. Now going to the temple, it was a long drive. We were picked up by two nice gentlemen that spoke English, which was very good and then two other people were in the band that was going to take us to our destination. They did not speak much, English However, they tried very hard to communicate with the clients. The activity was pretty simple, but the down side of things was that Tour Guide that was assigned to us. This person did the explanation in under four minutes, and was very fast talking so we did not have a moment to understand anything of what he was saying I need to try to offer to sell a book so that we could understand better. This is not what I told you you supposed to do I work in the tourism industry in the country of my origin, and I was very disappointed by that Cheap and poor explanation of the tour guy. I believe this is a private tour guide person and does not work directly with the company so I would suggest that the company hires their private tour guides to make sure that they give their clients a very good quality explanation of the temples that is worth, every dollar that they are paying we were left on our own after four minutes of a very very fast ducking explanation and we were told to have free time to take pictures and wonder around the temple which everybody does of cost but a lot of people like myself, like to know more about the ancient history of things and with this, I was not very happy. The drive back to the hotel was good and cozy the driver ankle pilot I believe their name is Mohamed and Mostafa were very kind also to recall their names and this was the end of our trip.

It's a SCAME!!!!! - It's a scame, they said I will pickup you and few hours before the trip the tell you that they have to cancel your trip because they are full booked, even when you already paid. If you want to save your money never contact with this terrible company. It's a SCAME.
