Why take this tour?

• Take advantage of a convenient pick-up from Aswan and head to Abu Simbel by bus. Discover this fascinating UNESCO World Heritage Site and learn more about how the rock temples to Ramses the Great was moved to a more secure location during the construction of the Aswan Dam to be oriented so precisely that this incredible wonder can still be observed today. Twice a year at the equinoxes, the sun shines into the inner sanctum so that the 4 statues of the gods, Ptah, Amun, Ra, and Ramses are illuminated. Discover the thousand-year-old hieroglyphs and petroglyphs in the large and small temples as you immerse yourself in the history of Egypt. Return to Aswan city to enjoy lunch at a local restaurant before being transferred back to your accommodation in Aswan.
