It contains two temples, carved into a mountainside, that were built by pharaoh Ramesses II (1303-1213 B.C).Abu Simbel today is no longer in the same location as it was in ancient times. “Following the decision to build a new High Dam at Aswan in the early 1960s, the temples were dismantled and relocated in 1968 on the desert plateau 64 meters (about 200 feet) above and 180 meters (600 feet) west of their original site, The area where they were originally located is now flooded.

Meals Included
Lunch Dinner
Breakfast on board of your Cruise. Early sail to Kasr Ibrim. View Kasr Ibrim from Sundeck , The Citadel Of Kasr Ibrim was once a formidable city high above the Nile River, but today it appears as an Island due to the construction of the Aswan High Dam. You will have your lunch on the cruise. Later on you will join your guide to visit the Amada Temple, Temple of Amada was originally built by Pharaoh Thutmose III who ruled during the 18thdynasty. When he died, his son, Amenhotep II took over, and during his reign he continued adding to the original temple and improving the temple’s decorations. Later when Amenhotep died, his successor, Thutmose IV once again began to initiate a number of changes, including the addition of a roof to cover the original temple’s open style forecourt. Then you will visit the Temple of Derr , Ramssess II is certainly one of the most recognizable figures in Egyptian history because of his long and victorious reign, and the many temples and structures he built during this period. This makes the Temple of Derr a particular treasure due to its original position which was on the eastern shore of the Nile where very few other structures were placed, and also because it is a remarkably fine example of the pharaoh’s preferred rock cut style. Finally you will visit the Tomb Of Pennut , If you follow a simple path that leads away from the two temples, you’ll soon find yourself coming face to face with one of the rarest sights in Egypt – a rock cut tomb belonging to a Viceroy of Kush. What makes this particular tomb so fascinating, is the fact that just like the temples nearby, it too was relocated from its original location in order to spare it from the flooding that was caused by the construction of the Aswan High Dam during the 1960s. After finishing your day tours , you will be back to your cruise where later on you will attend a cocktail party and then a very nice Nubian show on board of the cruise. Dinner will be on the cruise and overnight.
Meals Included
Breakfast Lunch Dinner
Breakfast on board of your Cruise. You will have an early visit to Wadi El Seboua , Visiting Wadi El Seboua while you’re touring Lake Nasser makes for an unforgettable experience since the area is home to a number of relocated ancient sites. Wadi El Seboua is now home to two “New Kingdom” temples, as well as the Temple of Dakka and the Temple of Maharraqua. Most visitors to the site want to explore all of these buildings and therefore they tend to dedicate a full day to the site. Many visitors begin with the famous “Valley of the Lions,” which is a sphinx-lined avenue that leads to the older of the two “New Kingdom” structures. This is the temple which was built by Amenhotep III and dedicated to a Nubian version of the god, Horus. It is a rock cut temple, with a brick pylon that remains intact. The courtyard and main hall still exist to this day, and there are also some admirable paintings. You will have your lunch on the cruise. Sail To Aswan. Dinner will be on the cruise and overnight Aswan.

It was moved to this spot from its originally location 30 miles to the south after the construction of the dam.Construction of the temple was begun at the end of the Ptolomaic Dynasty and actually completed under the rule of the Roman Emperor Augustus. The result is an interesting combination of imagery that includes Egyptian and Roman themes with images of Roman emperors and pharaohs worshipping with the Egyptian gods.
