...round trip from hotel – Today’s adventure will take you to the grand temples of Abu Simbel. We will begin by picking you up in the lobby of your East Bank Hotel or East Bank Ferry (for hotels on Elephantine Island). Start times can be set anywhere between 4:30am to 8am depending on your preference. Some clients prefer an early start to try and “beat” the crowds and the heat. Other clients prefer a leisurely breakfast in their hotel before heading out for the day. When setting you preferred start time please take into consideration the fact that there are no decent eating establishments in the area – therefore if you choose an early start – we suggest asking your hotel the night before to provide you a breakfast box that you can take on your adventure.
The tour to Abu Simbel takes between 8 to 9 hours round trip from Aswan including 2-3 hours at the temples themselves. The tour includes a safe and reliable driver in a late model air-conditioned vehicle. Entrance fees to Abu Simbel are not included but are shown on your itinerary attached in the column labelled “Additional Information”.
The guide (as shown on your itinerary) is optional and can be easily removed if you prefer to go without. The fee to add a guide is $35usd. The guide will join you on your long days’ journey and will have plenty of time to tell you the history of Abu Simbel and how it was moved stone by stone to the temples current location during the construction of the High Dam.
Depending on your time of departure we MAY be able to fit in a three hour felucca adventure to a Nubian Village - however to fit this into this day you would need to leave for Abu Simbel around 5am and you would need to choose an East Bank Hotel in Aswan or arrange a private motorboat in the morning (if staying on Elephantine Island).
Jan 23rd - Aswan High Dam, Unfinished Obelisk and Philae temple from hotel – Todays journey will take you to some of the most popular tour sites in Aswan – the High Dam, the Unfinished Obelisk and the gorgeous Philae Temple. The High Dam is so much more than just a dam to the Egyptian people as it’s construction had a significant effect on the economy and culture of Egypt. The Unfinished Obelisk was ordered by Hatshepsut and is nearly one-third larger than any Egyptian obelisk ever erected until cracks appeared in the granite and the project was abandoned. The Philae temple sits on an island and was said to be one of the burying-places of Osiris. The temple has a wonderful history your guide will share with you. This tour includes an Egyptologist guide and round trip motorboat tickets. Entrance tickets to the sites are extra and are stated in the column marked “additional information” on your itinerary.
