A Flyby Tours envoy will collect you from your accommodation in Aswan for a journey to the Temple of Kalabsha, which was relocated and reconstructed atop a hill near the High Dam site (Western Bank). Originally erected by Toutmosis II and Amenophis II at Kalabsha, situated 40 miles south of Aswan, the temple underwent restoration during the Roman conquest.

Very good! - The organizer was professional and the guide, Kareem was very enthusiastic about explaining as much as he could of Nubian and Egyptian History and cultures. He was very knowledgeable and he could read hieroglyphs very well and he could even speak Nubian. He even helped us after the activity to find some items in Aswan. Very nice person and overall we had an excellent experience!
