5.00Ahmed Sony He is very friendly and a very good tour guide. He explained a lot about the history and I learned a lot. He organised the trip very well and made sure everyone was having fun. Our trip to Abu simple temples was more enjoyable and less stressful because we had Ahmed Sony as our tour guide. I would definitely recommend him as a tour guide.

5.00Our visit to Abu Simple was truly unforgettable — one of the highlights of our trip to Egypt. The temples are simply breathtaking, and seeing them in person is an experience that photos can’t fully capture. The history, the scale, and the incredible preservation left us in awe. What made this experience even more special was our amazing guide. From the very beginning, Ahmed Suny was kind, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. He brought the history to life in such an engaging and easy-to-understand way, which made the visit even more meaningful for both adults and children. Everything was perfectly organized, and we felt comfortable and well taken care of throughout the entire trip. Ahmed was also very attentive, making sure everyone was enjoying the experience and had time to take it all in. We highly recommend visiting Abu Simbel — and if you can, do it with a guide like ours. It truly makes all the difference!
