Activity itinerary

Abu Simbel Temple Complex
  • 10h
  • Admission ticket included
As per requested time will pick you up from your hotel in Aswan and drive to the south of Aswan which is around 3hrs drive to enjoy Abu Simbel day tour from Aswan by air-conditioned vehicle. The two Temples of Abu Simbel, with their unique style, are considered to be the masterpieces of ancient Egypt. They reflect the glory and grandeur of the new Kingdom. The Egyptian government and UNESCO decided to co-operate in order to save these temples from the flood. The Temple of Ramses II was dedicated to the four universal gods Ptah, Re-Her-Akhtey, Amun-Re, and to Ramesses II himself. The great Abu Simbel temple is also called The Sun Temple of Ramses II.The Temple of Queen Nefertari is also Called Temple of Hathor who was the wife of the Sun God so in a symbolic way, the two Temples, that of Ramesses II and that of Nefertari, bring Ramesses II, Nefertari, Hathor and the Sun God together as one. Spend around 3 hours there then take the way back to Aswan.

The driver arrived on time on a very comfy vehicle. We picked up the guide on our way to Abu Simbel and he gave us all the explanations using pictures about the temples and this was a great time saver as we could enjoy the visit with all the knowledge gathered. The lunch was correct. I would recommend this tour.

Abu Simbel is a must see while in Egypt. Our driver was friendly though didn’t speak English well. He picked us up from the hotel lobby and brought us back at night. The drive however is very long, around 3.5 hours each way. Overall it was a ten hour day, so be prepared! For us, the private service was the best option as we were able to choose our pick up time which enabled more flexibility than the group tours (which leave at 5am). The tour “guide” at Abu Simbel didn’t offer much value, he provided some information (his English was not great) then left us to explore the temple on our own (though was trying to rush us as clearly he wanted to leave earlier- we were his last tour of the day).

Abu Simbel is really an amazing place to see. Our driver and guide were lovely. Our guide did an amazing job describing the site and also how it was saved from the reservoir flood. It’s a long hot day, but definitely worth going. We opted for the lunch and the restaurant our guide took us to was fantastic. Grilled fish was of the best meals we had as it was fresh from the area. Highly recommend!

Our tour to Abu Simbel was absolutely fantastic—everything about it was perfect. From start to finish, the experience was smooth, well-organized, and memorable. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and took genuine care to explain everything in such a clear, engaging, and respectful manner. You could really tell he was passionate about what he was sharing. The driver was equally wonderful—punctual, courteous, and made the journey comfortable and stress-free. We felt so well taken care of throughout. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area—it truly made our trip special!

We had a private tour with food and a tour guide to Abu Simbel. Our driver, Mohammed, was the highlight of the experience. He drove 3 hours in the desert and showed us everything that we were seeing and, also, he answered every single question that we had about Egyptian people and culture. He treated us really well and we laughed so much. We also went to a great restaurant and tried delicious traditional Nubian food. 100% recommended

Excellent driver (Mahmoud) and a comfortable car made the long day trip enjoyable. Our guide, Hani, even helped us with our onward travel in the afternoon at the end of the tour. The tour provider, Emo Tour, provided good communication and coordination via WhatsApp.

This is a wonderful trip. It is a must see sight if you are in the area. I started my tour in aswan. The drive is about 3 hours one way in an air conditioned car. The driver speaks minimal english but he is friendly and helpful. Please note that the road closes at 5pm. So you must return back to aswan by 5pm otherwise the driver would face a fine. I did not know this fact. But the driver did not try to rush us. We were running late because we started late and stopped for lunch. But again the driver was going out of his way to accommodate our time table. I ended up offered to pay for the fine, the driver did not ask me to pay for it. Overall it was a good experience and do recommend using this tour operator.

This was one of the best services we got in egypt! The driver was very kind and arranging and helpful. Served us water and made a detour to we can have food on the way with no extra cost. We needed to be back to aswan on time and he made sure that we arrive on time. Putting good music and he let us put music also ! The guide was very informative and kind and nice. The temple is amazing and impressive and it’s definitely a must do when in aswan. Thanks for them to make this trip easy and fun.

Everything was good on time to pick us up on time to transfer us back. The only problem was that our guide didn't speak good English and we couldn't understand a lot of things.
