The first stop is the Kalabsha Temple, which was built during the 18th Dynasty and was devoted to the gods Amun-Re and Khnum. It was relocated in the 1960s to prevent its submerging by the resultant water of the Aswan High Dam.

Fascinating stories from your guide about the rich history and artistry involved in the construction will intrigue you. Next is the Beit El Wali, an equally stunning example of architectural genius from that age, entirely dedicated to victories that Ramses II won and the gods he favored.

Your guide will interpret for you the importance of the temple and the stories of its walls.

After that, have a great lunch in one of these restaurants and get a taste of all the flavors of Egypt's famous cuisine. In the late afternoon, you can continue your tour through this marvelous area, enjoying the beautiful scenery along Lake Nasser, see the ruins of ancient civilizations, and learningseeing more about Nubian culture.

The second stop will be Abu Simbel, which can be reached by boat. This location contains one of the most spectacular temple complexes in the world: the Temples of Abu Simbel. Hewn out of the mountain during the time of Pharaoh Ramses II, it consists of two temples with stunning carvings carved directly into the rock walls. They are committed to Ramses II and his queen, Nefertari, to mark her victory at the Battle of Kadesh.

After these great visits, you will return to the cruiser for a delicious lunch; the rest of the afternoon is at peace to relax and meditate on what you have seen. This night, onboard dinner as the ship offers panoramic night views of the Nile the continued magic of your tour in Egypt.
