Itinerary

Abu Simbel, an architectural wonder of Egypt's New Kingdom, comprises two colossal temples honoring Ramses II and his queen, Nefertari. Originally endangered by the rising waters of the Nile due to the construction of the Aswan High Dam, these temples were remarkably relocated in a collaborative effort by the Egyptian government and UNESCO, thus preserving their grandeur for future generations. At Abu Simbel, your guide, an expert Egyptologist, will lead you to the Great Temple, also known as the Sun Temple. This temple, adorned with intricate rock-cut carvings and statues, celebrates Ramses II and four other deities. You will also explore the smaller, yet equally captivating temple dedicated to Nefertari, often referred to as the Temple of Hathor. During your visit, your guide will illuminate the fascinating history, artistry, and remarkable feat of engineering that saved these temples from submersion. After approximately two hours spent delving into the ancient mysteries of Abu Simbel, you will embark on the return journey to Aswan, arriving back around 12:30. This tour promises a profound glimpse into ancient Egypt's splendor, making it an unforgettable part of your Aswan experience.
