Start early for Abu Simbel
Abu Simbel visits require pre-dawn departures to avoid heat and crowds; expect a 4–6 AM pickup and limited time at the site.

If you’ll snorkel in Dahab, bring reef-safe sunblock and a personal mask for better fit and comfort.
Sturdy walking shoes
Closed, grippy shoes for uneven temple pavements and tomb stairs.

Protection from strong desert sun during midday temple visits.
