Private tour

Experience the grandeur of Nubia on a private 2-day Aswan and Abu Simbel tour from Hurghada. This carefully paced itinerary allows you to explore the majestic High Dam and the island temple of Philae in Aswan, followed by an early morning journey to the awe-inspiring rock-cut temples of Abu Simbel. Departing directly from your Hurghada hotel, the trip includes comfortable, air-conditioned transport, an overnight stay in Aswan, and the expertise of a dedicated Egyptologist guide. Designed for travellers who value historical depth without the rush of a single-day sprint, this excursion provides ample time to absorb the scale of Ramses II’s monuments while enjoying seamless logistics and verified local insights.
