Aswan High Dam
Your guide will meet you at your Aswan hotel in a private air-conditioned vehicle. Discover the mighty High Dam of Aswan, a modern marvel of engineering that tamed the Nile and transformed Egypt’s landscape. Built in the 1960s, it created the vast Lake Nasser and provides hydroelectric power and irrigation to millions across the country.

Unfinished Obelisk
Visit Aswan’s Unfinished Obelisk, a remarkable monument that offers a rare glimpse into ancient Egyptian stone-carving techniques. Still lying in its original granite quarry, this massive obelisk—meant to be the largest ever built—cracked during construction and was never completed. Standing beside it, you can imagine the immense effort and skill required to create Egypt’s legendary monuments.
1 hour

Temple of Philae
Discover the magical Temple of Philae, beautifully set on an island in the Nile and dedicated to the goddess Isis, symbol of love and motherhood. Rebuilt stone by stone after the construction of the High Dam, this temple is one of Egypt’s most atmospheric sites. Admire its elegant columns, detailed reliefs, and tranquil surroundings as you reach it by boat — an unforgettable experience blending history, beauty, and serenity. Before heading back to the hotel Enjoy a traditional Egyptian lunch at a local restaurant .
