  Itinerary


  1. Day 1:

    Day 1: Aswan's Modern Marvels & Ancient Sanctuaries Your adventure begins with a scenic and comfortable 3.5-hour drive from Luxor to Aswan in a private, air-conditioned vehicle. Upon arrival, your expert Egyptologist guide will lead you to two iconic sites that perfectly contrast modern engineering with ancient artistry. Your first stop is the Aswan High Dam, a colossal modern marvel that revolutionized Egypt by controlling the powerful floods of the Nile River. Your guide will highlight its importance in generating electricity and creating Lake Nasser, the world's largest artificial lake. A fascinating detail is that the dam used 18 times the amount of material as the Great Pyramid of Giza. Following this modern feat, you'll travel by boat to the enchanting Philae Temple, a breathtaking sanctuary dedicated to the goddess Isis, the mother of Horus. This beautiful temple was painstakingly relocated stone-by-stone to Agilkia Island after the dam's construction, in one of history's most ambitious heritage rescue operations. You can wander through its Ptolemaic and Roman-era halls, which are adorned with intricate carvings and hieroglyphs that bring ancient myths to life. After a full day of exploration, you will unwind at your Aswan hotel, with free time to relax and enjoy the serene views of the Nile, an experience that truly sets this tour apart from the rest.


  2. Day 2:

    Day 2: Sunrise at Abu Simbel's Sunlit Wonders The second day is the highlight of your journey. You will rise early, departing at 4:00 AM, for the final leg of your Tour from Luxor to Aswan and Abu Simbel: a private journey to the legendary Abu Simbel temples. This early start ensures you can witness the temples in the cool morning air and experience their beauty in the soft, beautiful sunrise light. Upon arrival, you will gaze up at the magnificent Great Temple of Ramses II, which features four colossal 20-meter tall statues of the pharaoh carved directly into a mountainside. Your guide will explain how ancient architects aligned the temple with such precision that sunlight illuminates the innermost sanctuary twice a year—on October 22nd and February 22nd, believed to mark the king's birth and coronation. Next, you will explore the Small Temple of Queen Nefertari, a rare and touching tribute in ancient Egyptian history. This temple is dedicated to Queen Nefertari as the goddess Hathor, a powerful symbol of Ramses II’s deep devotion to his beloved wife. By 1:00 PM, you will depart Abu Simbel and make your way back to Aswan for lunch before beginning the relaxing drive back to Luxor, where your unforgettable tour concludes by evening. This incredible two-day journey from Luxor truly showcases the best of ancient Egypt in one seamless package.

Day 1: Aswan’s Modern & Ancient Treasures

Upon arrival, you will first visit the Aswan High Dam, a true marvel of modern engineering that has a profound impact on Egypt’s landscape and economy. Your guide will explain its importance in controlling the Nile’s floods and generating hydroelectric power. The views of Lake Nasser from the dam are simply breathtaking.

Next, you will take a short boat ride to the beautiful Philae Temple, a masterpiece of Ptolemaic and Roman architecture that was painstakingly relocated to Agilkia Island to save it from the rising waters of the dam. As you explore this stunning island sanctuary dedicated to the goddess Isis, your guide will bring the temple’s fascinating history to life. You’ll have the chance to add optional upgrades, such as a peaceful Nile felucca ride at sunset or an enriching visit to a traditional Nubian Village, which further enriches your journey and provides a personal touch to your tour from Luxor.

Day 2: Witnessing the Majesty of Abu Simbel

The second day is the highlight of your adventure. Your private tour from Luxor to Aswan and Abu Simbel continues with an early morning departure to Abu Simbel, ensuring you arrive just in time to witness the temples bathed in the warm, golden light of sunrise. You’ll be able to stand in awe of the colossal temples of Ramses II and Queen Nefertari. Your guide will explain the intricate details of the Great Temple, where four towering statues of the pharaoh guard the entrance, and the smaller but equally beautiful Temple of Nefertari, a testament to their love. This incredible Tour from Luxor to Abu Simbel offers the best possible viewing experience of these monumental structures.

The story of how these temples were moved block-by-block to their current location is a feat of modern engineering that rivals their ancient construction. Your guide will detail the remarkable UNESCO-led rescue operation, highlighting how this ambitious project perfectly preserved these ancient treasures for future generations. After your in-depth exploration, you will begin your journey back to Luxor, arriving back at your hotel in the evening with a deeper appreciation for Egypt’s magnificent heritage.
