Later in the day, take some time out to relax and get yourself acquainted with all the facilities available on the cruise ship. Avail the sun deck and lounge spaces to enjoy in style. In the evening, there will be great board meals with a lot of food deliciously prepared.
The evening is far made more interesting by a flamboyant Nubian performance, bringing into view at the same time its rich cultural history as it develops. Therefore, this may be an ideal way of wrapping up your day with a raid into an unforgettable journey on your first evening at Steigenberger Omar El Khayam.
Enjoy a nutritious breakfast on board, then set off for an enjoyable time with the treasures of Aswan. Today's trip offers a selection of Aswan day tours: a visit to the Kalabsha Temple, which is a magnificent building built during the 18th Dynasty and devoted to the gods Amun-Re and Khnum. Its well-carved walls will help us understand the religious life that the ancient Egyptians led and the exceptional building skills of the ancient Egyptians.
Next on our Aswan tours, after visiting Kalabsha, will be a trip to Beit El Wali. This site is indeed incomparable, with wonderful inscriptions and reliefs depicting some of the major achievements of Pharaoh Ramses II. Here, one could witness the life and times of one of the most famous pharaohs in Egyptian history.
Next, we will proceed to the renowned Temple of Abu Simbel, famous for its colossal statues and overwhelming structure. This hollowed mountain complex of temples depicts Ramses II as a great and divine figure; stunning scenes show the Pharaoh between gods Amun-Re, Ra-Horakhty, and Ptah.
The next stop will be Wadi El Sebou, a place of beauty housing various ancient temples, in which one can experience breathtaking views. Each one of these addresses allows one to obtain more insight into the culture and history of Ancient Egypt. In fact, this would prove to be an unforgettable day.
Spend the afternoon at leisure on board your cruise ship after a whole-day tour. Enjoy the Lake Nasser views from your cabin, then later enjoy your dinner, expertly prepared by our chefs as you reflect on the fantastic experiences of your Aswan tours.
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
After a delectable breakfast aboard, you will visit Wadi El Sebou, an archaeological site with stunning temples constructed by Ramses II, as part of this Egypt Day Tours itinerary. The location, which was relocated to higher land to avoid floods from Lake Nasser, has reliefs that show the Pharaoh's triumph and devotion to the gods. Ancient and contemporary engineering achievements are demonstrated by the temples.
We then go to the Amada Temple, which was constructed by Thutmose III and dedicated to the god Amon Ra. It is among the oldest in Nubia. The temple's well-preserved artwork and inscriptions describe the religious rituals and god-worship of the ancient Egyptians. The temple also functions as a cultural hub reflecting spiritual life and displays the talent and skill of ancient craftspeople, especially the Nubian people during the time of Thutmose III and Ramses II.
After a day of sightseeing, you'll return to your cruise ship for a leisurely afternoon with panoramic views of Lake Nasser from your cabin. Enjoy a delicious dinner prepared by our chefs while reliving the amazing experiences from your Egypt Day Tours.
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
Enjoy a sumptuous breakfast on board while sailing to Qasr Ibrim, one of the most monument-rich sites and the entirety of Egyptian history. Once a Nubian fortress, Qasr Ibrim was home to the tombs of Nubian kings and queens from the era of Pharaoh Thutmose III. It is closed to external visits at present but still has great cultural and spiritual importance, which can be appreciated aboard. Such is the placement of the site: on the shores of the Nile, for trade and military defense against invaders in antiquity. The ruins provide interesting information about the culture and polity of the Nubian people with its fortress-tombs.
First, there is the iconic Abu Simbel, a vast temple complex commissioned by the great Pharaoh Ramses II. The larger temple has colossal statues of Ramses II standing next to the gods Amun, Ra-Horakhty, and Ptah-all a testament to how closely the Pharaoh was tied to divinity. In contrast, the smaller temple is devoted to the goddess Hathor and symbolizes love and commitment between two people through Ramses II's wife, Nefertari.
In the 1960s, these temples were carefully moved to higher ground to avoid being submerged into the rising waters of Lake Nasser. This engineering marvel was crucial in the preservation of these architectural beauties for posterity to marvel at. The Temples are not only impressive due to their size and skill but also due to the fact that they symbolize Ramses II's power and religious sentiments. The big temple was oriented with the sun so that at a specific time it shines right into the inner sanctuary, which is a unique phenomenon that happens twice in a year-this is on the birthday of the Pharaoh and the anniversary of his coronation. This reflection shows the great knowledge of the ancient Egyptians in the field of astronomy and spiritualism.
Following the visit to Abu Simbel, you will return back to the cruise ship for some time to rest and contemplate upon the amazing history and magnificent architecture of this very amazing place.
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
You will have your last Breakfast meal on the Steigenberger Omar El Khayam before leaving for the last destination of your program, which is the Abu Simbel Airport for your final flight by our tour guide.
