Itinerary
After the pyramids, Abu Simbel is one of Egypt's most famous sites. The temple there was built 3000 years ago to honor Ramses II and his wife, Queen Nefertari. Four powerful figures of the pharaoh stand over 60 feet tall. This temple, which has remained nearly intact over the ages, was rescued from the rising water of Lake Nasser by a team of UNESCO engineers, by cutting the entire structure, moving it stone by stone and reassembling it from 1964 to 1968.

Testimonials 
| We're back from our Egypt trip which we had booked with you from Sept 18-Oct 2. Great trip! Thank you so much. We want to take this opportunity to tell you what a great job our tour guide, Soliman, did. He was excellent and really made our trip such a delight. He is very knowledgable and informed, organized and we felt very safe in his care. We would certainly recommend that you consider hiring him again for any future tours you may organize. |
