Overview

This experience takes you to three of Aswan’s most visited landmarks. You will visit Philae Temple, set on its island and built in honour of the goddess Isis, and enjoy its waterside setting. At the Unfinished Obelisk you will see the enormous granite structure and appreciate its immense scale. You will also walk along the High Dam that separates Lake Nasser from the Nile and take in views of the river. Along the way you will ride a motor boat on the River Nile and enjoy fantastic aerial views of the area. A friendly, knowledgeable tour guide will lead the outing and share background on each site as you move through them. Pickup from a centrally located meeting point is provided, and free hotel pickup and drop-off are included for hotels and Nubian guest houses.
