Excursão do Cairo a Abu Simbel via Assuão

Embarque numa fascinante viagem a Abu Simbel com 2BTravels. Your adventure begins with a flight from Cairo to Aswan, followed by a scenic drive to Abu Simbel.

Here, you’ll be awestruck by the grandeur of King Ramses II’s sun temple and the Temple of Queen Nefertari, both discovered in 1813 under a blanket of sand.

The Egyptian government and UNESCO relocated these magnificent temples in 1960 to protect them from the Nile’s rising waters. The sun temple, built by Ramses II, primarily serves as a monument to his greatness. Inside, you’ll find a mural illustrating his triumphant victory at the Kadesh battle.

Adjacent to Ramses’ temple is the Nefertari Temple. Ramses II dedicated this architectural marvel to his beloved wife, Queen Nefertari, who was the most revered among his 200 wives and concubines.
