Tour to Abu Simbel Temple from Aswan
Embark on a fascinating day trip from Aswan to the magnificent Abu Simbel temples, one of Egypt’s most iconic and impressive archaeological sites. The journey begins early in the morning, with a comfortable, air-conditioned bus ride that takes you through the scenic desert landscape to reach Abu Simbel, approximately 3-4 hours from Aswan.
Upon arrival, you’ll be amazed by the two grand temples carved into the mountainside by Pharaoh Ramses II. The Great Temple, dedicated to Ramses II himself, features four colossal statues of the king seated at its entrance, while the smaller Temple of Hathor, dedicated to Ramses II’s wife, Queen Nefertari, is equally stunning with its detailed reliefs.

During your visit, a knowledgeable guide will explain the history, significance, and the impressive relocation project, giving you an in-depth understanding of the temples’ cultural and historical importance.
