Coisas para fazer em Abu Simbel

The transportation was punctual, and the driver made a great effort to get us to Abu Simbel Temple ahead of other tour groups. However, this private guided tour was already a bit more expensive than those offered by other local travel agencies. On the return journey, the driver even asked for tips with an envelope, which made us wonder if the price wasn't all-inclusive. Why would they still ask for tips from guests? Furthermore, the itinerary did not state whether tips were required or if the driver's tip was included.

It was a great trip to see Abu simbel from Luxor as I did not need to go to Aswan first. The driver was very nice and caring.

We had an amazing day touring Luxor with Ahmed Yossry! From start to finish, everything was smooth, well-organized, and stress-free. He showed us not just the famous sites but also the hidden gems that made the experience truly special. Ahmed is incredibly knowledgeable and shared fascinating insights throughout the day, bringing the history of Luxor to life in a way that was easy to understand and engaging. On top of that, he made sure we felt safe and comfortable at all times, which made a big difference in enjoying the experience fully. If you’re planning to explore Luxor, we highly recommend Ahmed, he truly made our day unforgettable.

Overall, I am satisfied. The guides and coordinators were mostly very kind. I was very grateful for the quick responses during our prior communications. However, I would have liked a more detailed schedule. If I had known there would be time to explore the cities in Aswan on day 1 and Luxor on day 3, I believe I could have spent my time more productively. It was unfortunate that the quality of the guides varied, and on one occasion, for transportation, we had a carriage transfer where we were asked for a higher-than-average tip.

I was worried about how to meet the guide since it was my first time, but I was able to connect with the guide well via WhatsApp and traveled without any worries.
