Aswan Day Tours — 9 Hours
Private Abu Simbel Day Trip from Aswan
An early start from Aswan and about three hours across the desert, 280 km each way, to the two temples Ramses II cut into the rock above Lake Nasser. The Great Temple's facade has four seated statues of the king, each around 20 meters tall; the smaller temple honors Queen Nefertari and the goddess Hathor. Your guide also tells the story of how both temples were moved in the 1960s to save them from the rising lake.
