Day 2: Abu Simbel round trip
Today’s adventure will take you to the grand temples of Abu Simbel. It will begin by picking you up in the lobby of your cruise boat promptly at 4:30am for your departure to Abu Simbel – we suggest asking your Cruise Boat front desk the night before to provide you with a breakfast box that you can take on your adventure.
The tour to Abu Simbel takes between 8 to 9 hours round trip from Aswan including 2-3 hours at the temples themselves. Explore Abu Simbel, which are the commanding twin temples of Ramses II and his wife, Queen Nefertari. The latter’s front is dominated by four 70-foot-tall statues of the pharaoh. Perhaps it is even more interesting that this entire site was dismantled and moved here to save it from the floodwaters caused by the Aswan High Dam.
Then return to the boat and begin to sail during the lunch time to Kom Ombo temple.
Arrive at Kom Ombo (hill of gold) to visit the Greco- Roman temple devoted to Haroeris (the sun god) and Sobek (the crocodile god), whom some ancient Egyptians considered the creator of the world. View the mummified remains of several crocodiles that once sprawled along the ancient Nile shore, just as their descendants do today.

Walk through the Great Hypostyle Hall, wander among its expertly aligned columns, which soar to 80 feet high. Later you get to the Temple of Luxor. View the three large statues of Ramses II along the front of the temple pylons; the Courtyard of Ramses II; and the Colonnade of Amenhotep III, with its 50-foot-high columns.
