  2. Abu Simbel

    The Great Temple of Abu Simbel is most famous for the four imposing seated colossal statues that dominate its façade. Colossal standing statues of the king line the main hall, leading to the shrine where four deities sit: Amun Ra, Ra Horakhty, Ptah and a deified version of Ramses II. Another rock-cut temple to the north, known as the Little Temple, is dedicated to the goddess Hathor and the great royal wife of Ramses II, Queen Nefertari. The relocation of the temples was a historic event in the 1960s. At that time, the temples were threatened by immersion in Lake Nasser when the High Dam was built. They were successfully relocated to a location 60 meters above the cliff where they were originally built. A striking feature is that on two days of the year, the 22nd of February and 22nd of October, the first rays of the morning sun illuminate the entire length of the temple and illuminate the images of the four gods at the end of the cave.

Private day tour to Abu Simbel from Aswan: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Aswan.

How much does Private day tour to Abu Simbel from Aswan cost?

+

Prices start at $90 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Aswan usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does Private day tour to Abu Simbel from Aswan take?

+

Plan for about 9.2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Aswan is not rushed.

Is Private day tour to Abu Simbel from Aswan worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 42 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (0/5 across 0 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Aswan, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Private day tour to Abu Simbel from Aswan?

+

No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

Is Private day tour to Abu Simbel from Aswan suitable for kids and families?

+

Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9.2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

How far in advance should I book Private day tour to Abu Simbel from Aswan?

+

Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Aswan can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

What should I bring or wear?

+

Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Aswan and add a light layer if any part of the 9.2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Private day tour to Abu Simbel from Aswan start and how do I get there?

+

The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Aswan within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

What are the best things to do in Aswan?

+

On Outty we rank every Aswan experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include 3 or 2 or 1 Nights Mighty Nile Felucca Adventure, 4-Day 3-Night Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor&Abu Simbel+Balloon, 4-Day Nile Cruise sails Aswan to Luxor&Abu Simbel.Hot air Balloon. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

When is the best time to visit Aswan?

+

Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

How many days do you need in Aswan?

+

Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

+

Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
