Aswan: Private Guided Tour to High Dam, The Obelisk & Philae Temple by Boat
A trusted partner experience, hand-picked and featured on This is Egypt.
Overview
You will explore three of Aswan’s best-known sights in a single outing. Walk along the High Dam that separates Lake Nasser from the Nile and appreciate the scale of this modern engineering feat. At the granite quarry you will see the Unfinished Obelisk and can take in its remarkable size and the clues it offers about ancient stone-working techniques. On Philae Island you will visit the temple complex built in honour of the goddess Isis and enjoy its waterside setting. Along the way you will also travel on the River Nile by motor boat, giving a different perspective on Aswan’s landscape and on the temple island.
