About This Tour

Travel south from Aswan through the Nubian desert to discover the remarkable Abu Simbel Temples, two of ancient Egypt’s most impressive monuments and part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Your journey takes you across the desert in a private air-conditioned vehicle, offering a comfortable way to reach these extraordinary temples near Lake Nasser. On arrival, explore the Great Temple of Ramses II, renowned for its four colossal statues carved into the rock face. Inside, discover decorated chambers and reliefs that reflect the power, beliefs, and achievements of one of ancient Egypt’s most famous pharaohs. Continue to the nearby Temple of Hathor, dedicated to Queen Nefertari and the goddess Hathor. Admire its striking façade and interior decorations, which make this monument especially significant in the history of ancient Egyptian royal architecture.

Throughout your visit, your Egyptologist guide will explain the temples’ historical and religious significance, the stories depicted in their reliefs, and the international UNESCO-led campaign that relocated the monuments in the 1960s to protect them from the rising waters of Lake Nasser following the construction of the Aswan High Dam. After exploring the temples, enjoy lunch before returning to Aswan in your private vehicle. With private transportation, entrance tickets, expert guiding, lunch, and bottled water included, this day trip offers a convenient and informative way to experience one of Egypt’s most remarkable ancient sites.
