About the Tour

Abu Simbel is a place that changes your sense of human scale. Four statues of Ramesses II, each 20 metres high, carved directly into the rock 3,200 years ago. In the 1960s the entire temple was dismantled and moved 65 metres higher to save it from the waters of Lake Nasser. One of the greatest engineering operations in history.
