Continue with a drive to the breathtaking Temple of Abu Simbel, probably one of the iconic landmarks of Egypt. Hewn into the side of the mountain during the rule of Ramses II, this complex features huge colossi that immortalize both the king and his favorite queen, Nefertari. These temples are monumental testimonies to the memory of those two great rulers and celebrate the victory of Ramses II in the Battle of Kadesh.

Access to this site is very restricted, but you will be able to see from the outside the historical importance of this site before continuing your trip.

Continue sailing on to the magnificent Abu Simbel, boasting two of the most impressive temples anywhere in the Middle East, if not in the entire world.  into the side of a mountain during the rule of Pharaoh Ramses II, this astonishing complex boasts colossal statues standing to this very day as perennial symbols of ancient Egyptian artistry and engineering. The larger temple is dedicated to Ramses II himself, while the smaller temple honors his beloved queen, Nefertari.

Both temples were constructed not only as an honor of their importance but also as a triumph for Ramses II after his victory in the Battle of Kadesh, with great rock reliefs depicting the Pharaoh in triumph.

The temples were in danger of being submerged during the 1960s when the Aswan High Dam was built. A monumental relocation effort preserved these treasures for future generations. After this enlightening visit to Abu Simbel, go back aboard the cruise ship, having lunch and dinner on board while recollecting the stunning sights and rich history encountered during today's day.
