Lucruri de făcut în Abu Simbel

Transferul a fost la timp, iar șoferul a condus cu sârguință, permițându-ne să ajungem la Templul Abu Simbel înaintea altor grupuri. Cu toate acestea, acest tur privat era deja puțin mai scump decât ofertele altor agenții de turism locale. La întoarcere, șoferul a cerut bacșiș de la toți pasagerii cu un plic, ceea ce ne-a făcut să ne întrebăm dacă prețul nu era deja all-inclusive. De ce ar mai cere bacșiș de la clienți? Mai mult, itinerariul nu menționa nimic despre bacșișuri sau dacă bacșișul șoferului era inclus.

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 using this, but I was easily connected with the guide via WhatsApp and had a great time without any worries.
