You’ll head to Abu Simbel in the comfort of a private, air-conditioned vehicle — the drive takes about 45 minutes. Upon arrival, your guided visit to the awe-inspiring Abu Simbel Temples begins. These monumental structures sit on the western shore of Lake Nasser, roughly 230 kilometers southwest of Aswan, near the Sudanese border.
Abu Simbel Temples: Commissioned by Pharaoh Ramses II, the site features two remarkable temples — one dedicated to Ramses himself and the other to his cherished queen, Nefertari. Constructed in 1255 BC and uncovered again in the 19th century, these temples are famed for their grandeur. The larger temple boasts four colossal statues of the pharaoh, paying homage to Egypt’s most powerful gods. The smaller temple, devoted to the goddess Hathor, beautifully highlights the royal affection Ramses held for Nefertari.
Following your exploration of this incredible UNESCO World Heritage Site, you will return to Aswan. Upon arrival, you’ll be dropped off at your hotel or Nile Cruise, bringing your unforgettable experience to a close.
