Itinerary and highlights

in the early morning you will go to visit Abu Simbel Temple in a private car, discover this magnificent UNESCO World Heritage site and learn more about how to move the rock temples to Ramses the Great to a safer place during the construction of the Aswan Dam to be guided so precisely that this amazing wonder can still be seen today

Listen to your guide carefully to know the story of this great temple

The sun shines twice a year in moderation in the inner temple so that the statues of the four gods, Ptah, Amun, Ra, and Ramesses, light up. Discover a thousand-year-old hieroglyphic rocky temple in large and small temples as you dive into Egypt’s history

Finally, take some time to explore the Temple of Nefertari, also called the Temple of Hathor.

After the tour, transfer back to your hotel.
