Overview

Abu Simbel is home to two ancient temples built during Egypt’s New Kingdom, known for their large rock-cut statues and historical significance. This private day tour from Aswan takes about 10 hours and includes transportation in an air-conditioned vehicle. The trip starts with a hotel pickup in Aswan, followed by a 3-hour drive south to Abu Simbel. Visitors spend around 3 hours exploring the two temples: the Great Temple of Ramses II, dedicated to universal gods and the pharaoh himself, and the Temple of Queen Nefertari, dedicated to Hathor. After visiting the temples, the tour returns to Aswan by the same air-conditioned vehicle. The tour includes hotel pickup and drop-off, private transfers in a modern air-conditioned vehicle, a bottle of water, and optional add-ons such as a guide, entry fees, and lunch at local restaurants serving Egyptian food. The itinerary and timing can be adjusted according to the traveler’s preferences. Confirmation of booking requires a photo copy of the passport during the reservation process.
