Once you arrive, you will visit the High Dam, Phiala temple, and the Unfinished Obelisk. You will also have the opportunity to enjoy sailing on the Nile with an Egyptian Felucca. The Phiala temple was built to honour the goddess Isis and was the last temple built in the classical Egyptian style. The High Dam is a rock-fill dam located at the northern border between Egypt and Sudan. The Unfinished Obelisk sheds light on how ancient Egyptians created their statues and obelisks.

In the afternoon, you will have the option to visit the Nubian village, an authentic and colourful place that will surprise you in every corner. Spend 2 hours exploring and getting to know the soul of this place.

Marvel at the main façade of the Great Temple to Ramesses II and its 4 statues of the pharaoh seated on his throne following his advancing age. The main temple is dedicated to Amon-Re Horakhty and Ptah. The smaller temple of Ramesses’ consort, Queen Nefertari, is situated right next to the Great Temple. Admire the impressive rock-cut façade depicting the pharaoh and his queen.

  1. Nelly

    As a lonely traveler I always prefer historical places above all. The Aswan Abu Simbel Trip is definitely a combination of them. I would need to organize a lot of stuff to visit everything this trip suggests but I thought that booking the excursion is the best way of saving time and power. I got so interested in the history that I’m planning to write an article about it. Hope you guys will enjoy this trip as much as I did. Recommended!
