    Knowledgeable guide, comfortable travel

    We had an incredible experience with Kemet to see Abu Simbel. Our guide, Sam, was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the history. He provided clear and engaging stories of the history. The journey to Abu Simbel in the van was comfortable and clean. We also arrived slightly before the big tour groups - it made for a magical experience being at the site with not many people. Would recommend!

    A life-changing trip in Egypt!

    Montasser organised a 12 day private tour of Egypt for me including a 3 days/3 nights felucca cruise on the Nile, Day trip to Abu Simbel, 2 days in Luxor with visit of the Valley of the Kings and a stay at Bahariya Oasis. Montasser made sure that I was well looked after and that every detail of my trip was perfect. The felucca cruise on the Nile was one of the most amazing and authentic experience I ever had. Nothing compares to sailing on the Nile at sunset and soaking in the silence while relaxing on the deck. Another highlight of my trip was Bahariya Oasis. The energy there was so powerful and sleeping in the desert under the stars and the full moon was an experience I will never forget! I highly recommend Kemet Travel if you are considering visiting Egypt.

    Response from the operator: Dear Mrs Karine , Greetings from Kemet Travel Egypt.

    Private Day Tour: Abu Simbel from Aswan: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cairo.

    How much does Private Day Tour: Abu Simbel from Aswan cost?

    +

    Prices start at $250 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cairo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Private Day Tour: Abu Simbel from Aswan take?

    +

    Plan for about 8 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 Cairo is not rushed.

    Is Private Day Tour: Abu Simbel from Aswan worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 51 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cairo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Private Day Tour: Abu Simbel from Aswan?

    +

    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 Private Day Tour: Abu Simbel from Aswan suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private Day Tour: Abu Simbel from Aswan?

    +

    Around 1 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 Cairo 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 Cairo and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private Day Tour: Abu Simbel from Aswan 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 Cairo 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 Cairo?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Cairo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include All-in-One Giza Tour, inside Pyramid, sphinx, Camel ride & lunch, VIP Private Giza Pyramids, Sphinx Tour –Inside the Pyramids&More, Best of Cairo Private Giza Pyramids, Sphinx and Grand Museum Tour. 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 Cairo?

    +

    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 Cairo?

    +

    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.
