    I was not able to go to Philae Temple. Did this tour even take place on the day?

    I was not able to go to Philae Temple. On the day, I waited for an hour in front of the designated pick-up location, Hapi Hotel, at the designated time. However, the pick-up car or person did not show up. Did this tour even take place on the day? For other tours, I received information the day before and an email on the day, but for this tour, there was nothing but an email asking for a review after the fact. I would like Viator to investigate the implementation of this tour and contact me about future measures.

    Waste of Our Time

    Nothing Memorable as the guide and the driver from the company did not turn up on 15/06/24. Messages sent but had no response . Phone number called but it was turned off. Contacted Viator. They tried to contact the provider but phone was turned off. Asked Viator regarding refund. Viator informed me that i was not entitled to it as i had not cancelled 24 hours before. I responded by telling Viator that if I could see the future I would have. Viator now tell me that they are waiting for a response from the provider. My advice only book if you can see into the future

    The worst!!!

    No one showed up, they took the money but were not reachable when we tried to contact them for the pickup. Even one star is too much. Don't book this tour!

    Is 2 Hours Tour in Philae Temple good value?

    +

    Yes. It starts at $13, below the $315 typical for similar experiences in Aswan.

    How much does 2 Hours Tour in Philae Temple cost?

    +

    Prices start at $13 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Aswan usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does 2 Hours Tour in Philae Temple take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Aswan is not rushed.

    Is 2 Hours Tour in Philae Temple worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.9/5 across 40 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Aswan, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is 2 Hours Tour in Philae Temple suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 2 Hours Tour in Philae Temple?

    +

    Around 14 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Aswan can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Aswan and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 2 Hours Tour in Philae Temple start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Aswan within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Aswan?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Aswan experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include 3 or 2 or 1 Nights Mighty Nile Felucca Adventure, Private 4-Days Nile Cruise From Aswan To Luxor including Tours, 4-Day 3-Night Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor&Abu Simbel+Balloon. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Aswan?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Aswan?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
