You will take a motorboat to reach the west bank of Aswan where you will visit the private tombs of the Nobles dug in the mountain of the west bank of Aswan. These tombs date back from the pharaonic era . Inside the tombs , there are nice colors and amazing paintings. To go up the mountains , you will ride a camel.

Then you will ride the same camel heading the St. Simon Monastery. This monastery is the name given to the ruins of a 6th-century Coptic monastery west of the Upper Egyptian city of Aswan . In earlier Coptic and Arabic sources, the monastery complex was called Deir Anba Hadra , after the hermit and later bishop of Syene (now Aswan) Anba Hadra from the 4th century. Only later was it named Deir Anba Samaan after Simon (Simeon), a Coptic saint , known as Simon the Tanner or Simon the Shoemaker, who lived towards the end of the 10th century. This name was adopted by archaeologists and travelers for the dilapidated monastery.
