About this activity

This Aswan and Abu Simbel 2 day tour from Hurghada is a private trip by car with your own Egyptologist guide, one night in a 4-star Aswan hotel and every entrance fee included, from €300 per person. Day one covers the High Dam, the Unfinished Obelisk and Philae Temple. Day two starts before dawn for Abu Simbel, so you reach the temples of Ramses II and Queen Nefertari early, before the midday heat.

We plan this as a private Aswan and Abu Simbel tour from Hurghada with one vehicle for the whole journey. There are no train tickets, no station transfers and no timetable to depend on. The trade-off is honest: the drive is long and both mornings start early. Pickup is around 5:00 AM on day one and about 4:00 AM on day two.
