Ramses II carved two temples into a mountain near the Sudanese border, guarded by four 20-metre statues of himself. In the 1960s the whole site was cut into blocks and lifted to safety – an epic worth the early start.
Very early pick-up from your hotel in Cairo or Giza for the morning flight to Abu Simbel via Aswan.
Your Egyptologist shows you the four seated colossi of Ramses II, the halls cut deep into the mountain and the smaller temple of Queen Nefertari, and explains how both were moved in the 1960s.
Return flight via Aswan; our driver meets you in Cairo and takes you to your hotel.

We were very satisfied with the whole experience! We booked a full-day tour including the safari and quad biking, and everything was great.
From the manager to our driver Omar, as well as Kareem, Ibrahim, and Islam — everyone was very friendly, respectful, and welcoming.
We can highly recommend this team and Desert Fox Safari!
Best wishes from Ilhan and Hasan from Calw, Germany!
