Abu Simbel is situated 300 kilometers south of Aswan and just 20 kilometers north of the border with Sudan on the western bank of Nile. The twin temples of Abu Simbel temple are a UNESCO World Heritage Site. were originally carved out of the mountainside in 13th century BC during the reign of Pharaoh Ramesses II reigned (1279– 1213 BCE) Because of their remote location near the Sudanese border in southern Egypt, the temples were unknown until the rediscovery in 1813. These Nubian temples were at risk of being submerged under water in the 1960s, but with help from UNESCO, Egyptology and antiquity experts, the two temples were dismantled and raised over 60 meters on the sandstone cliff where they had been originally built more than 3,000 years before. The main temple (The Great Temple of Abu Simbel) is dedicated to the gods Amon-Ra, Ra-Harakhti, and Ptah, but it was also erected to demonstrate the might of the Egyptian empire and for the eternal glorification of Ramesses II. The Small Temple to the north of the main temple is dedicated to Queen Nefertari, the beloved and favorite wife of Ramesses II and Goddess Hathor. To the north of the temple you will visit the smaller temple of Abu Simbel, It was built in honour of Ramesses’ great wife, Queen Nefertari, and her patron goddess Hathor. After exploring the temple complex, you will be transferred back to the starting point of the tour.

Private Tour to Abu simbel Temples from Aswan by Car: questions travelers ask

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

How much does Private Tour to Abu simbel Temples from Aswan by Car cost?

+

Prices start at $100 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 Tour to Abu simbel Temples from Aswan by Car take?

+

Plan for about 8 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 Tour to Abu simbel Temples from Aswan by Car worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 45 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 last minute in Aswan, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Private Tour to Abu simbel Temples from Aswan by Car?

+

Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

Is Private Tour to Abu simbel Temples from Aswan by Car suitable for kids and families?

+

Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

How far in advance should I book Private Tour to Abu simbel Temples from Aswan by Car?

+

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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Private Tour to Abu simbel Temples from Aswan by Car 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 4-Day 3-Night Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor&Abu Simbel+Balloon, 4-Day 3-Night Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor - Private Tour, 3 or 2 or 1 Nights Mighty Nile Felucca Adventure. 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.
