Itinerary and highlights
Your private Egyptologist will pick you up from your hotel/ Nile cruise or appartment in Aswan to enjoy your day trip Abu Simbel by a private air-conditioned vehicle.
The two Temples of Abu Simbel , with their unique style, are considered to be the masterpieces of Ancient Egypt. They reflect the glory and grandeur of the new Kingdom. The Egyptian government and UNESCO decided to co-operate in order to save these temples from the flood.
Ramsses II temple was dedicated to the four universal gods Ptah, Re-Her-Akhtey, Amun-Re, and to Ramsses II himself.
The great Abu Simbel temple is also called The Sun Temple of Ramssess II.
The Temple of Queen Nefertari is also Called Temple of Hathor who was the wife of the Sun God so in a symbolic way, the two Temples, that of Ramsses II and that of Nefertari, bring Ramesses II, Nefertari, Hathor and the Sun God together as one.
