(Optional trip) Begin your early morning as part of your unforgettable 8-day Nile cruise Luxor and Aswan. Today at 4 AM, you will go by bus to the impressive Temples of Ramses II in Abu Simbel. The complex is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site known as the Nubian Monuments, which runs from Abu Simbel downriver to Philae near Aswan. The twin temples were originally carved out of the mountainside during the reign of Pharaoh Ramesses II in the 13th century BC as a lasting monument to himself and his queen Nefertari, commemorating his alleged victory at the Battle of Kadesh and intimidating his Nubian neighbors. However, the complex was relocated in 1968 to an artificial hill above the Aswan High Dam reservoir.
The relocation of the temples was necessary to avoid submersion during the creation of Lake Nasser, the massive artificial reservoir formed after building the Aswan High Dam. Abu Simbel remains one of Egypt’s top tourist attractions. With your qualified Egyptologist as your guide, you will enjoy a personalized visit to the temples and learn how they were discovered in 1813. Due to the large number of visitors, guides are not permitted inside the temples. After the visit, return to Aswan to board your 5-star deluxe Nile cruise.
