Itinerary
-
Hotel Pick-up: Your Tut Holidays representative will pick you up from your hotel in Aswan early in the morning for a comfortable drive in a private, modern, air-conditioned vehicle.
-
The Colossal Temples of Ramesses II & Nefertari: Arrive at Abu Simbel to explore the Great Temple, carved directly into the mountain face by Ramesses II to honor the creator gods and his own deified legacy. Right beside it, explore the elegant Small Temple, dedicated to the Goddess Hathor and the pharaoh’s most beloved wife, Queen Nefertari.
-
The Solar Phenomenon & UNESCO Miracle: Learn about the miraculous ancient engineering that allows the sun’s rays to illuminate the inner sanctuary exactly twice a year (on February 22 and October 22). You will also discover the fascinating mid-20th-century UNESCO rescue mission that completely dismantled and moved the entire mountain site 65 meters higher to save it from the rising waters of Lake Nasser.
