Description

This magnificent day excursion from Aswan by flight takes you to one of Egypt's most awe-inspiring UNESCO World Heritage Sites: the legendary Abu Simbel temples. Fly comfortably to this remote location where you'll stand in awe before Ramses II's monumental rock-cut temple facade, guarded by four colossal 20-meter tall seated statues of the pharaoh. Explore the interior halls adorned with intricate carvings depicting his military victories and religious scenes, then visit the neighboring Temple of Hathor dedicated to his beloved queen, Nefertari. Learn about the incredible international rescue operation that relocated both temples to save them from the rising waters of Lake Nasser. This unforgettable journey showcases ancient Egyptian engineering at its most ambitious, offering a profound connection to pharaonic power and artistry in a breathtaking desert setting.

The driver, Abdul, picked me up...

<p>The driver, Abdul, picked me up promptly at the cruise lobby and whisked me away to the airport, acting as a guide for the interesting sites we passed by. We won't go into the fiasco at the airport as that was Egypt Air's responsibility but Abdul was there to save me. The pick-up person at Abu Simbel was a delight and my guide to the temple was informative but probably could have talked a little bit more. His accent was somewhat hard to understand. That being said, this place is like stepping back in time. Totally incredible. There is a small market there that seemed to have interesting things but I had to get back to the airport. Once back in Aswan, Abdul met me and, knowing I had to make it back to the cruise ship quickly, made sure the actual driver sped appropriately. I felt totally taken care of, especially since I was solo on this excursion.</p>
