Reiseverlauf

Tag 01 Philae Temple, Obelisk & High Dam Tour

Your Aswan Day Tour begins with a pickup from your hotel, where your expert Egyptologist guide will accompany you to explore three of Aswan's most famous attractions.

First, you’ll head to the impressive Aswan High Dam, which is often named one of the biggest engineering achievements of the 20th century. This dam helps protect Egypt from flooding, also it creates hydroelectric power, and it made the vast Lake Nasser, which is among the world’s largest man-made lakes. Your guide will walk you through the dam’s history, and why it still matters in modern Egypt today.

Next stop is the Philae Temple Dock. From there you’ll take a short motorboat ride over to Agilkia Island, where the magnificent Philae Temple waits. The whole place was dedicated to the goddess Isis, and it’s beautifully preserved. You can really admire the elegant columns, the intricate hieroglyphics, and yes the scenery along the Nile is stunning too, it feels almost unreal at times.

For your final visit you’ll go to the ancient granite quarry, where you can learn about the famous Unfinished Obelisk. This huge monument gives a real, hands-on look at the stone-cutting skills ancient Egyptians used, even back then.

When your Aswan Day Tour ends, you’ll be taken back to your hotel. You’ll leave with unforgettable memories of Aswan’s remarkable past, its major engineering work, and those ancient monuments you’ll never forget.

We took a ride in the village of Slavia, but I couldn't find an option to review this activity
Because it is temporary so I found this company on the Internet, customer service staff is good, but the only US is not enough is that he can only brush cards online can not pay cash, hope to have the option of paying cash

We had a great afternoon
Leading our guide Ahmed people are good, we because of the previous trip delayed time, let him wait for us a while on the boat, up to the boat to discover the entire boat only us, he also gave us water and drinks, we saw the sunset on the boat to take pictures very carefully, the road Ahmed like we told the surrounding view, some understand some not understand, but this is the charm of travel
Finally arrived at the place where Ahmed was very good to support us in the upper edge, the youth who carried the rope was also reassured to give us, but there was no stubborn edge in the back of the supervision, on the road we would run for a while and walk very self-sufficient, in his body we were afraid and excited, and finally walked into the village of slavery, we went to eat slavery bread with black sugar and adult food, that servant and our soy milk taste super like soy milk, also drank black tea, because Arab coffee is interested so we also tried, the taste is very special. Finally we went to the school in Slavia for a class, really a classroom, we quickly learned some Arabic and Slavic, really too hard, but very happy, if not to rush back and gather, really want to slow down the whole village
