Aswan Tours
Excursion to Abu Simbel Temples
Depart at 4am to reach Abu Simbel at sunrise and avoid the scorching midday heat. Two magnificent rock-carved temples — one for Ramses II and one for Nefertari — built 3,300 years ago and relocated by an international effort in the 1960s.
Aswan Dam, Philae Temple & Unfinished Obelisk
Visit the colossal Aswan High Dam — one of the 20th century's greatest engineering feats — then the Unfinished Obelisk in its ancient quarry, and finally the island temple of Philae dedicated to Isis, 'Jewel of the Nile'.
Nubian Village Day Trip & Felucca Cruise
Cross the Nile by motorboat or traditional felucca, swim on a golden beach, then ride a camel to the colorful Gharb Soheil Nubian Village. Explore local food, spice markets, music, and try a traditional henna tattoo.
Edfu & Kom Ombo Temples from Aswan
Visit Kom Ombo Temple at the river's edge — uniquely dedicated to both Sobek the crocodile god and Horus the sky god — then the magnificent Edfu Temple, the best-preserved in all Egypt, dedicated to Horus.
Temple of Philae Sound & Light Show
Experience the magical Philae Island temple transformed by dramatic lighting and a narrated sound show after dark. The story of Isis, Osiris and Horus comes alive on the Jewel of the Nile.
