Abu Simbel by flight (Air only. Private tours)

Embark on a journey to the magnificent Temples of Abu Simbel with our add-on flight package from Aswan.

Marvel at the colossal statues of Ramses II as you explore these ancient wonders, meticulously relocated to their current site to preserve Egypt's rich history for generations to come. Abu Simbel, originally carved out of solid rock during the reign of Pharaoh Ramesses II in the 13th century BCE, boasts the iconic Great Temple dedicated to the gods Amun, Ra-Horakhty, and Ptah, adorned with four colossal statues of Ramesses II seated on thrones. The temples' relocation in the 1960s, undertaken to avoid submersion by the rising waters of Lake Nasser after the construction of the Aswan High Dam, stands as a remarkable feat of engineering and preservation. Today, Abu Simbel remains one of Egypt's most popular tourist attractions.
