Abu Simbel
Abu Simbel Temple Complex - In the early morning, around 3:30 AM, drive to the Abu Simbel Temple, located 230 km away, approximately a 3-hour car journey. Begin by visiting the twin temples of Abu Simbel, originally carved into the mountainside in the 13th century BC during the 19th dynasty under Pharaoh Ramesses II. These temples stand as a lasting tribute to the king and his queen, Nefertari. They were submerged under Lake Nasser after the High Dam’s construction, prompting UNESCO and the Egyptian government to relocate them to an artificial hill. Known as the Temple of Ramesses, beloved by Amun, it is dedicated to the renowned gods Ptah, Re-Her-Akhtey, Amun-Re, and Ramesses II himself. The smaller temple of Nefertari is called the Temple of Hathor, symbolically linked to the Sun God’s wife.
Aswan High Dam - On the return journey to Aswan, stop to visit the High Dam, constructed between 1960 and 1970, standing 111 meters tall.
Unfinished Obelisk - Conclude your visit with the unfinished obelisk, the largest known ancient obelisk, located in the northern region of the ancient Egyptian stone quarries in Aswan, Egypt.
