Above all - immerse yourself in Aswan’s rich history and culture. This tour brings you closer to spectacular destinations and offers a personalized travel experience. Aswan hosts the majestic Philae Temple, the Unfinished Obelisk, and the Aswan High Dam, each telling its own story of ancient Egypt’s grandeur.

A Tranquil Journey on the Nile - Aswan to Abu Simbel Tour

Generally, your travel begins with an individual boat tour designed to nourish both mind and soul. Picture sunrises and sunsets over the tranquil waters of the Nile, quiet gliding without noise or haste, and short stops for walks on land to explore hidden gems. As a matter of fact, our small group sizes ensure a more intimate experience, with a dedicated crew ready to pamper you.

Arriving in Abu Simbel

The tour culminates  finally in the awe-inspiring destination of Abu Simbel. Nubia, the beautiful and austere land that once linked Egypt and black Africa, now lies beneath the world’s largest artificial lake – Lake Nasser. Along its shores, the Abu Simbel Temples stand as one of the most remarkable monuments in Egypt, second only to the Pyramids of Giza.

In sum, Ramses II built these colossal rock-cut temples, marking the southern border of the Egyptian Empire with Nubia at the height of its power during the New Kingdom. In the 1960s, the temples were relocated to higher ground to save them from the rising waters of Lake Nasser. They still convey the spirit of a great era that has stood the test of time.
