You can also reach Abu Simbel by coach or minibus from Aswan or by traveling
in police convoys. For most of the year, the bus convoys leave Aswan around
3:30am. Actually they try to avoid the desert heat. All buses travel together
in a military convoy. It takes around 3 hours. It is advisable to travel on
air conditioned buses, in Abu Simbel, because, the journey back to Aswan is
very hot.
You can get to Abu Simbel by cruise ship from Aswan through Lake Nasser.
