Creator's Key Takeaways

this is meant to be one of the grandest temples here in Egypt so I'm really excited to see it this morning

we're gonna be spending the next two nights living on board one of these feluccas and they're the traditional Egyptian boats

this has been so nice it's our first sunset on the nile we're just been having a couple of beers drinking and chatting and chilling

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Wake up early to visit Abu Simbel temple
βœ“Bring a sheet or sleeping bag for the felucca, but it's hot so light bedding is enough
βœ“Expect wind issues and possible choppy conditions on the Nile

One of our favourite days so far in Egypt as we begin our overnight Egyptian Felucca boat cruise on the Nile from Aswan to Luxor. We sleep out in the stars, have a local Nubian house visit...but first of all we started nice and early at 3am to see the Best Egyptian temple so far...Abu Simbel the temple for Pharaoh King Ramases the 2nd.
