Enjoy every moment of this extraordinary adventure, taking in the beauty, history, and grandeur of southern Egypt.
Book this incredible 2-Day Aswan & Abu Simbel Adventure from Luxor and immerse yourself in the timeless magic and wonder of Egypt’s most legendary southern landmarks.
First, you’ll be picked up from your hotel in Luxor and transferred to the train station to catch a scenic ride to Aswan. Upon arrival, your professional Egyptologist tour guide will accompany you to explore some of Aswan’s most legendary landmarks.
Then you’ll see the Aswan High Dam, a marvel of modern engineering and a symbol of Egypt’s industrial renaissance. Built during the 1960s under President Gamal Abd El Nasser, this monumental dam regulates the Nile waters, protects Egypt from flooding, and generates hydroelectric power. Its origins, however, trace back to the 9th century under the Fatimid Caliph Al-Hakim Bi-Amr Allah, showing Egypt’s centuries-long ambition to harness the Nile.
Then, head to the fascinating Unfinished Obelisk. This colossal granite monument was begun over 3,500 years ago during the reign of Queen Hatshepsut of the 18th dynasty. Although work was abandoned due to cracks in the stone, if completed, it would have stretched 42 meters long and weighed 1,200 tons, making it the largest obelisk ever attempted in ancient Egypt.
Then, visit the magical Philae Temple, beautifully located by the Nile. Initially begun by Ptolemy II and completed by the Romans, this temple is dedicated to Isis, the goddess who resurrected Osiris and gave birth to Horus. Her divine protection and mystical power shine through every column, relief, and shrine along the temple complex.
After that, enjoy a delicious lunch at a Nile-view restaurant, soaking in the serene river views and the timeless beauty of Aswan.
Finally, you will check in at your 5-star hotel for a comfortable overnight stay, resting up for the adventures ahead.

Then you’ll explore the awe-inspiring temples built by Ramses II (1279–1213 BC), completed in 1264 BC at the southern edge of Egypt. The site features two neighboring temples carved into sandstone cliffs. The larger temple is dedicated to Ramses II himself, with its entrance guarded by four colossal statues, each towering 20 meters high, arranged in pairs.
Next, experience the magic of the temple’s celestial alignment: twice a year, the sun’s rays penetrate the temple to illuminate the statues of Amun Ra, Ptah, Re Horakhty, and Ramses II, a marvel of ancient Egyptian astronomy and architecture.
After soaking in this extraordinary site, you’ll be driven back to Aswan for a delicious lunch, enjoying traditional flavors and a relaxing break.
Finally, you'll be transferred to Aswan train station to catch your 1st class train back to Luxor, where you will be taken to your hotel, ending your overnight trip to Aswan & Abu Simbel from Luxor.
