Excursion Abu Simbel from Aswan
Our experience with Ahmed was excellent from start to finish. He arrived early, drove safely and stopped for a bathroom visit and a coffee along the way. One the way back he bought us a traditional Egyptian breakfast, a sandwich with falafel, vegetables, fries and more. It tasted amazing. Thanks for this perfect day!
Response from the operator: Thank You for an Amazing Review! Thank you so much for your kind words and for choosing Egypt Taxi Tours! It was a real pleasure to have Ahmed as your driver and to make your journey comfortable, safe, and enjoyable.

We hope to welcome you again in Egypt and make your next journey just as special! Thank you for traveling with Egypt Taxi Tours! ❤️

Good company, great Driver.
This is a review for a trip with Egypt Taxi Tours. I traveled a few days ago from Aswan Egypt to Luxor. The trip via car is about 3.5 hours. The company was great to work with, they made getting the reservation very easy. The best part of the experience was Ahmed, our driver. His car was spotless and very comfortable. He had snacks and water for us at the ready. The car was new and it was a nice change from our other experiences with past companies that had older cars and barely working AC. Ahmed is an incredible driver. If you have never been driven in Egypt it can be a nervous experience, but not with Ahmed. He was cautious and we felt completely safe on the barely two lane road with loads of traffic. Not only is he a great driver, but he was so courteous and friendly. He really made us feel welcome in Egypt. He was so knowledgeable about our tour, we learned so much about Egypt from him. He gave us info on the temples we were visiting, but even better was we had great experience of what life was like for a local in Egypt! We came for the history and fell in love with the people, not hard to do with people like Ahmed. I would highly recommend him for any trip you take in Egypt!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your positive feedback! We are so pleased to hear that you had a great experience with our service. We strive to provide the best possible service and it's wonderful to know that we have achieved this. We look forward to repeat the experience again.

Why this scores 70
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Luxor to Abu Simbel or Vice Versa–Private Door-to-Door Transfer: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Luxor.
How much does Luxor to Abu Simbel or Vice Versa–Private Door-to-Door Transfer cost?
+
Prices start at $135 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Luxor usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Luxor to Abu Simbel or Vice Versa–Private Door-to-Door Transfer take?
+
Plan for about 6 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 Luxor is not rushed.
Is Luxor to Abu Simbel or Vice Versa–Private Door-to-Door Transfer worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 28 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Luxor, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Luxor to Abu Simbel or Vice Versa–Private Door-to-Door Transfer?
+
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 Luxor to Abu Simbel or Vice Versa–Private Door-to-Door Transfer suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Luxor to Abu Simbel or Vice Versa–Private Door-to-Door Transfer?
+
Around 10 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 Luxor 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 Luxor and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Luxor to Abu Simbel or Vice Versa–Private Door-to-Door Transfer 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 Luxor 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 Luxor?
+
On Outty we rank every Luxor experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private Half Day Luxor Tour Valley of Kings & Queens, Hatshepsut, Full Day Tour to East and West Banks of Luxor (Private), Full Day Tour of Luxor private. 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 Luxor?
+
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 Luxor?
+
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.
