Overview

From the felucca you will see the Agha Khan Mausoleum, perched on a hill and offering broad views across the Aswan area. As you sail along the Nile, the desolate hills of the West Bank will be dotted with the Tombs of the Nobles, and a qualified Egyptologist guide will give a brief history of these ancient sites as you pass. Your guide will accompany you to Kitchener Island, where you will visit the small botanical museum before strolling through the Aswan Botanic Gardens. The gardens are home to many exotic species of plants and trees imported from around the world, and they provide a quiet, peaceful contrast to the bustle of everyday life in Egypt. Along the way you will enjoy a calm, scenic journey on the water and learn about the landmarks and plant collections from your guide.
