Is 5 Days Enough for Cairo, Luxor, Aswan and Abu Simbel?
5 days gives you a compact sweep of Cairo, Luxor, Aswan and Abu Simbel, and the schedule is full, with little free time. Day 2 packs a flight, the West Bank and the East Bank into a single day, and day 4 revolves around the drive to Abu Simbel. It suits travellers who want a short, guided trip through Egypt's main destinations, Abu Simbel included. For a slower pace, the 7 days luxury Egypt tour covers Cairo, Luxor and Aswan over more time.
How the Abu Simbel Day Works
Day 4 combines the Abu Simbel temples with the flight back to Cairo:
- Leave Aswan early with your guide.
- Travel by private vehicle to Abu Simbel.
- Visit the Great Temple of Ramesses II and the smaller Temple of Nefertari.
- Return to Aswan.
- Fly from Aswan to Cairo with help from a Travel Joy Egypt associate.
The Abu Simbel temples guide covers the site and what to see there.
