Abu Simbel Temples

Admission included120 min

The Great Temple of Abu Simbel, in Nubia near Egypt’s southern border, is among the most awe-inspiring monuments of Egypt. It was cut into the living rock by King Ramesses II (the Great) of the Nineteenth Dynasty, around 1264 BC. The temple is most well known for the four imposing seated colossal statues that dominate its façade. One of these collapsed because of an ancient earthquake, and its fragments can still be seen on the ground. Colossal standing statues of the king line the main hall, leading to the sanctuary where four deities are sat: Amun Ra, Ra Horakhty, Ptah, and a deified version of Ramesses II. The temple was built with such precision that on two days a year, the 22nd of February and 22nd of October, the sun’s rays enter the temple, cross the main hall, and illuminate the innermost statues.

Unforgettable Tours

I booked the Abu Simbel tour from Aswan and couldn't be happier with how it went. Everything was smooth from pick-up to drop-off. The car was very clean, air-conditioned, and spacious — exactly what you need for a 3-hour drive through the desert. I really appreciated how well-maintained it was. Our guide truly made the experience special. He was professional, warm, and shared fascinating stories about Ramses II and the temple’s relocation. He never rushed us and even helped take amazing photos at the best spots.

Scam

Scam. I booked the tour in SPANISH, because it is my native language, and on the return -without letting us get out of the vehicle, what kidnapping - they demanded the payment of an additional $20, supposedly an overprice for giving us the explanations... in Spanish!! Some criminals. Egypt Travel Group.
