About this tour

Overview: Abu Simbel Tour by Flight

This tour to Abu Simbel offers a convenient and time-saving option by flying directly from Aswan instead of taking the long 6-hour drive. The flight allows you to skip the lengthy road journey, giving you more time to explore the iconic Abu Simbel Temples, a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of Egypt’s most impressive monuments.

Upon arrival, your professional guide will lead you through the Temple of Ramses II and the Temple of Nefertari, explaining the history, significance, and intricate carvings that depict Ramses II’s victories and his devotion to the gods. These temples, carved directly into the mountainside, were famously relocated in the 1960s to avoid submersion from the rising waters of Lake Nasser.

After exploring the site, you will fly back to Aswan, having experienced the grandeur of Abu Simbel in a fraction of the time. This tour is perfect for those looking to maximize their experience while minimizing travel time.
