Is it possible to organise a tour to Abu Simble for one day while staying in Hurghada? Or is it possible to help me find a driver for a day?

Abu Simbel is far from Hurghada, the closest point is Aswan which is 3,5 hours distance one way from Aswan, from Luxor it takes around 7 Hours, the best idea is to stay one night in Aswan and make Abu Simbel and come back Luxor for another night then to Hurghada.

I wanted to inquire if the optional tours are available to children or just the adults?

How old is the child will be on Dec 23?

I can't understand which other entrance fees I would have to pay once there, is not clear in the description and neither on the brochure.

It costs around 65 USD for all the main entrance fees to the Sightseeing except the optional ones like entering the Great Pyramids or some optional tours

Peter, the tour guide, was most professional throughout the process of booking, organising the trip and communicating with me. Whenever I had a question he would respond quickly and provide answers. On the tour he was very informative, providing additional information relating to things we saw along the way. At the sites we visited, he was very knowledgeable about the temples, tombs and he has a vast knowledge about the history of ancient Egypt. Peter looked after us throughout the tour us tourists and keeping us safe. He is a wonderful man with a heart of gold and I would use him again when I return to Egypt with my son.

What an incredible holiday First of all I want to say thank you to all the guides and drivers who have been with us throughout the trip. It was the best trip in my life! They haven't broken any promises which they offered and even was much better than the package description.?? All the guides explained the history of Egypt so easily. And It was a very safe and comfortable trip. When I had a requirement or needed more free time, I just told them and they did their best to make me feel as comfortable as possible and tried to make the best trip for us. I really highly recommend this package trip.
