Highlights

Abu Simbel is an ancient Egyptian temple complex located in Nubia, southern Egypt. It was originally carved out of the rock cliff by order of Pharaoh Ramesses II in the 13th century BC. The temple is dedicated to Ramesses II and his wife Nefertari, and it is one of the most impressive and well-preserved temples in Egypt. This is the most popular option and it is a great way to see Abu Simbel in a day. The tour will typically depart from Aswan in the early morning and return on the same day.

About Aswan

Aswan is Egypt's serene southern city on the Nile, where feluccas glide between granite islands, Nubian villages and palm-fringed riverbanks.

The Nile is at its most beautiful here, broken by granite boulders and green islands. Elephantine Island holds ruins of ancient temples and colourful Nubian villages, Kitchener's Island is covered by a botanical garden, and on the west bank the Tombs of the Nobles are cut into the cliffs of Qubbet el-Hawa, while the domed Mausoleum of the Aga Khan stands on a desert hill further south.

Top-ranked sights in Aswan: Abu Simbel Temples, Philae Temple (Temple of Isis), Aswan High Dam.
