St Simeon Monastery & Camel Ride — Aswan
Designed, curated and operated by This is Egypt — an experience you'll only find here, quality we stand behind.

Overview
Cross the Nile and ride a camel through the desert to the dramatic ruined monastery of St Simeon. On this half day experience you'll take in Camel ride across the desert, Monastery of St Simeon, Felucca river crossing and Local guide — a carefully paced itinerary that captures the very best of Aswan without the rush. The experience is led by a licensed Egyptologist guide who brings the history to life, with entrance tickets arranged so you spend your time among the monuments rather than in the queue.

It is one of Aswan's most-booked cultural experiences, rated 5.0★ across 1+ traveller reviews on the leading travel platforms. Your booking includes a professional guide or host, hotel pickup and drop-off and all entry fees where applicable, with free cancellation up to 24 hours before you go and instant confirmation.
