Book Egypt Tours delivered an exceptional excursion to the Abu Simbel Temples. The grandeur of the statues carved into the mountain was breathtaking. Although the journey from Aswan was early and long, the destination justified every minute spent on the road. The only thing that could have enhanced the experience would be a little more time to linger in the presence of such historical magnificence
