Join Memphis Tours for an unforgettable trip to Abu Simbel! Our representative will pick you up from your Aswan hotel, and you’ll travel in a modern, air-conditioned coach. The 3.5-hour drive takes you to Abu Simbel, home to two iconic temples.
The temples are masterpieces of ancient Egyptian architecture, showcasing the New Kingdom’s grandeur. The Egyptian government and UNESCO worked together to protect them from flooding. The Temple of Ramses II, or Sun Temple, is dedicated to four gods—Ptah, Re-Her-Akhtey, Amun-Re—and Ramses II. The Temple of Queen Nefertari honors Hathor, the Sun God’s wife, symbolizing a connection between Ramses II, Nefertari, Hathor, and the Sun God.
After your visit, you’ll return to your hotel in Aswan. The tour also includes a tasty lunch at a local restaurant.
