The borders of Aswan extended before the migration from Asna to the east, to the borders of Sudan to the south, and its inhabitants were Nubians, but after the Islamic conquest of the Nuba countries, some Arab tribes inhabited them

What you'll see and do

  1. Aswan

    Our representative will take you in the morning with a private car to visit Abu Simbel Temple because it is considered one of the beautiful temples in Aswan. The construction of the Abu Simbel temple complex began around 1244 BC, and it took about 21 years to build. Historians say that the Abu Simbel temple expresses something of Ramses II’s pride. The Temple of Abu Simbel is characterized by being completely engraved in the rock, and its façade takes the shape of an oblique shape to resemble the edifice of temples. The facade of the temple is decorated with four colossal statues of King Ramses II sitting while looking east and surrounding the king’s legs are a group of statues of queens, princesses and princes. The front of the temple is topped with a row of monkeys greeting the sun above the entrance door to the temple carved by the god “Ra – Hor – my sister” with a falcon’s head .Then you will go back to the hotel.

private trip to Abu Simbel Temple: questions travelers ask

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

How much does private trip to Abu Simbel Temple cost?

+

Prices start at $1960 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 trip to Abu Simbel Temple take?

+

Plan for about 10 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 trip to Abu Simbel Temple 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 trip to Abu Simbel Temple?

+

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 trip to Abu Simbel Temple suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 6. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 10-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book private trip to Abu Simbel Temple?

+

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 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does private trip to Abu Simbel Temple 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.
