2-Day Tour Overview
Day 1: Aswan - Abu Simbel
After picking you up from your hotel, we will set off from Aswan, traveling southward. Upon reaching the shores of Lake Nasser, you will participate in a guided exploration of Abu Simbel. This renowned archaeological site features the imposing Great Temple of Ramses II, dominated by grand statues of the Egyptian Pharaoh.
Our exploration will also include the Temple of Nefertari, dedicated to Ramses II’s beloved wife, which is adorned with hieroglyphs and intriguing mysteries waiting to be uncovered.
Following our tour, you will have some free time for lunch at your convenience at nearby locations. As dusk approaches, we will regroup for the mesmerizing Abu Simbel Night Show, where the temples are illuminated with stunning projections that, paired with music, narrate the history of Ancient Egypt.
After the show concludes, we will proceed to a nearby accommodation, the Seti Abu Simbel Hotel, a charming 4-star venue where you will enjoy dinner and spend the night. While this specific hotel is subject to availability, we guarantee accommodations of similar quality.
