The Egypt tour package with Abu Simbel continues to Luxor, often described as the world’s largest open-air museum. Along the East Bank of the Nile, the monumental Karnak Temple and the beautifully preserved Luxor Temple highlight the architectural and spiritual achievements of the pharaohs. On the West Bank, the legendary Valley of the Kings reveals tombs carved deep into the desert cliffs, including the famous resting place of Tutankhamun. The elegant Temple of Hatshepsut and the towering Colossi of Memnon further showcase the grandeur and artistry that define Luxor’s historic landscape. Our Luxor Tours from USA page covers both banks in more detail, and travelers who want to sail between Luxor and Aswan can read our luxury cruises from Luxor to Aswan page.
The highlight of this Egypt tour package with Abu Simbel is the extraordinary temple complex of Abu Simbel itself, built by Pharaoh Ramses II near the Sudanese border. Carved into cliffs, the site features colossal statues and intricately detailed temples, including the Great Temple of Ramses II and the Temple of Queen Nefertari. Relocated in the 1960s to protect it from the waters of Lake Nasser, Abu Simbel remains a testament to both ancient ingenuity and modern preservation, and witnessing the sunrise illuminate the massive statues is a truly unforgettable experience. The trip usually departs from Aswan, and our Egypt Classic Tours: Cairo, Luxor and Abu Simbel from USA page and our Aswan Tours from USA page cover the route in detail, while our Private Egypt Tours page covers a private format for the early start and our Book Egypt Luxury Package from USA page explains how booking works step by step.
