• Unfinished Obelisk - Begin your day tour in Aswan with a convenient pick-up from your hotel or cruise ship, and embark on a journey to explore one of the most renowned stone artifacts from ancient Egypt, the Unfinished Obelisk. Discover the fascinating history of the largest known obelisk, believed to have been commissioned by Hatshepsut (c. 1473-1458 BC) for the temple of Amun in Karnak. This impressive granite monument, which would have stood approximately 42 meters (about 137 feet) tall and weighed around 1,200 tons, remains incomplete due to a crack found in the structure. An independent tour guide at the site (*optional, separate cost) can provide further insights into its creation.
• Temple of Philae - Continue your adventure with a motorboat ride to the stunning Philae Temple. Relish the scenic views along the Nile in beautiful Aswan. Known as the Temple of Isis, this site was constructed during the Ptolemaic period (305 BCE to 30 BCE) and dedicated to the Goddess Isis, Osiris, and Horus of ancient Egypt. The picturesque Philae temple complex, featuring architectural structures, the main temple, chapels, and shrines in Egyptian and Greco-Roman styles, is one of Egypt’s most beautiful. An independent tour guide at the site (*optional, separate cost) will lead you on a walking tour through the temple, after which you can explore further at your own pace.
• Aswan High Dam - Proceed with a drive to the Aswan High Dam. Constructed in the 1960s, this major engineering feat is one of the world’s largest dams. The High Dam plays a crucial role in generating hydroelectric power, controlling the Nile River’s flow to prevent flooding, and supplying water for irrigation. Enjoy the breathtaking views of Lake Nasser from the top of the High Dam, along with sights of the massive power station to the north and Kalabsha temple to the south.
• Nubian Village - The final stop is a visit to a Nubian Village, where you can immerse yourself in the unique culture of the Nubian people. Delight in the vibrant colors of the Nubian houses, explore the charming artwork, and embrace the local culture at your leisure. Spend some time shopping for handcrafted souvenirs and gifts. The tour concludes with a drop-off at your accommodation in Aswan.
