Visit Abu Simbel Temple . Built on the west bank of the Nile River, between the first and second cataracts of the Nile, the site of Abu Simbel is one of the most recognizable ancient sites in Egypt. 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. After getting back from the amazing visit of the Temple , you will be enjoying your Afternoon Tea time on board of the cruise and have some relaxation and refreshment.

Optional Visit to Sound And Light Show at Abu Simbel

In the Evening you will have a fascinating Sound & Light Show at Abu Simbel Temple . The Sound and Light show at Abu Simbel will convey you to the time of the pharaohs. Enchanting you with melodious music, and bringing the ancient world to life around you, the show includes projections into the temples showing how they once looked. The program is presented in a number of languages with the provision of ear pieces. It is an experience not to be missed, one that will make your visit to Abu Simbel the memory of a lifetime.

Day 02: Sail to Kasr Ibrim - Visit Amada - Sail to Wadi El Seboua & Overnight

 

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.

Day 03: Visit of Wadi El Sebou & Dakka

 

You will have your breakfast on the board of the ship , then you will go to Wadi El Sebou , The name in Arabic means "Valley of the Lions", referring to the avenue of sphinxes that leads up to this temple, which was built during the reign of Ramesses II. Though it was moved to its current location only in the1960’s, it was quickly forgotten and neglected , You will be bak to the ship to have Lunch while Then the boat will sail to Amada, the Temple of amada is the oldest of the monuments around Lake Nasser. Dating from the 18th dynasty of the New Kingdom, the temple predates Ramesses II and Abu Simbel by around two hundred years; however, as is typical of the great pharaoh of Egypt, Ramesses’s mark and that of his son Merenptah can be found inside.
