Abu Simbel privétour vanuit Aswan

Hoogtepunten

Inbegrepen

Route

1. Volgens de gevraagde tijd haalt de gids je op bij je hotel in Aswan en rijdt naar het zuiden van Aswan, wat ongeveer 3 uur rijden is om te genieten van de Abu Simbel-dagtour vanuit Aswan met een voertuig met airconditioning. De twee tempels van Abu Simbel worden met hun unieke stijl beschouwd als de meesterwerken van het oude Egypte. Ze weerspiegelen de glorie en grootsheid van het nieuwe koninkrijk. De Egyptische regering en UNESCO besloten samen te werken om deze tempels van de overstroming te redden. De Tempel van Ramses II was gewijd aan de vier universele goden Ptah, Re-Her-Akhtey, Amun-Re en aan Ramses II zelf. De grote tempel van Abu Simbel wordt ook wel de Zonnetempel van Ramses II genoemd. De tempel van koningin Nefertari wordt ook wel de Tempel van Hathor genoemd, die de vrouw was van de Zonnegod, dus op symbolische wijze zijn de twee tempels, die van Ramses II en die van Nefertari, breng Ramses II, Nefertari, Hathor en de Zonnegod samen als één. Breng daar ongeveer 3 uur door en neem dan de terugweg naar Aswan.

• 5Good company for going to Abu Simbel.

  This was a good trip. We had a minibus just for the 4 of us, and a guide joined us as of Aswan. They took us to a nice restaurant afterwards, in Abu Simbel town, a bit away from the site, so with acceptable pricing.

• 5Abu Simbel day trip from Aswan

  Excellent tour highly recommended. 3 hr drive each way, glad it wasn't me driving. The site itself was impressive.

• 2A terrible organisational mess!

  I had booked and confirmed this trip with the tour operator, Marawan, well ahead of time. Yet, on the day, we could not find the driver. The operator asked us to look for a grey car! But since this was a public park and there were lots of cars parked there, I asked him to let the driver come to us and identify himself. The driver came and he was in a small old sedan car. This made the 3.5 hour trip very uncomfortable. The trip was to include a private tour guide, snacks and bottled water and entrance fees. None of it was prepared; when we arrived at the temple, the driver dropped us off and asked how much time we need! When I explained to the driver that there should be a guide waiting for us, he called Marawan and I spoke to him. He said, yes, don't worry, the guide is already there and waiting for you. The driver apologised and said that he had no prior knowledge as he doesn't work for the company, but his brother did and they only called him last minute to cover! The guide then called and also said that he was not aware and in fact he was at home and not onsite and would need 20 minutes to come to us and was also called last minute. He made up for it during the tour though and that's why I'm not giving it a 1 star. Thank you Hany for saving the day.

• 5Great experience going to Abu Simbel

  Ahmed (+20 11 04829758) was our driver for the 3 1/2 hour drive each way. He knows the roads very well and was a reliable driver. He was punctual and went out of his way to make us feel safe.

• 3Great temple but a not so great journey

  We loved seeing Abu simbel, it is an amazing temple and well worth a visit. The car ride is long at around 3 hrs there an back. We left at 730 and only got back at 1630. We did not opt for the guide as were told that they are not allowed into the temple area. There is a stop in the middle for coffee but don’t expect anything special other than instant coffee to purchase. Our vehicle was in poor condition but had a working air-condition at least. The driver did speak to us at points on the way there only but his English was broken. He was also on the phone for 90% of the time and seemed to drive quite slow at points because of this. Overall it was an average journey but the spectacle of abu simbel made up for it, and still worth the trip.
