If you are travelling by road to Abu Simbel on the day excursion you should ask your Egyptologist if the ship can supply a “breakfast box”. You should definitely take some food with you as hunger will set in before you reach Abu Simbel (a 3 and a half to 4 hour trip each way). Also, make sure you take plenty of water with you as it can be very hot there and you can dehydrate quickly.
