Aswan City Full Day Private Tour

Enjoy your Aswan Day Tour. Our Egyptologist guide will pick you up from your hotel in Aswan to enjoy a day tour in the amazing city ASWAN. Start your tour by a visit to the HIGH DAM, an engineering miracle built in 1960 protecting EGYPT from annual floods from the Nile. Then proceed to visit the UNFINISHED OBLISK which shows the techniques used by the ancient Egyptians to cut obelisks. Most probably this obelisk belongs to QUEEN HATSHEPSUT, one of the rulers of the 18th Dynasty and the royal wife of king Tuthmosis II. This queen was the owner of her Temple in the eastern bank of LUXOR. Also there is an opinion said that it belongs to Queen Nefertiti. Move on to visit the majestic PHILAE TEMPLE which was built on the honor of Goddess Isis the chief deity of the island. Later you will be transferred back to your hotel.

The Philae Temple is a beautiful ancient Egyptian temple located on an island in the Nile River. The sound and light show at Philae Temple is a popular attraction for tourists visiting Egypt. The show combines music, narration, and colorful lights to bring the temple’s history to life.

During the show, visitors are taken on a journey through time as they learn about the temple’s construction, its role in ancient Egyptian religion, and its eventual rediscovery and restoration. The narration is accompanied by a variety of sound effects, including music, chanting, and the sounds of nature.

A visit to the Aswan High Dam usually begins with a tour guide who provides an overview of the dam’s history and importance. The Aswan High Dam was built in the 1960s to control the flooding of the Nile River and provide hydroelectric power to Egypt. The dam is a massive structure that spans 3.8 kilometers in length and has a height of 111 metres.

Visitors are then taken on a trail across the top of the dam, where they can see the vast expanse of Lake Nasser, the reservoir created by the dam. The view from the top of the dam is breathtaking, as the blue waters of the lake stretch as far as the eye can see.

After walking through the dam, visitors can explore the nearby visitor center, which provides more information about the dam’s construction and its impact on Egypt. The center includes exhibits on the history of the Nile River, as well as presentations on the various benefits of the dam, including irrigation and electricity generation.

The Unfinished Obelisk is an ancient monument located in Aswan, Egypt. It is a massive granite obelisk that was left unfinished due to a crack that appeared in the rock during its carving. The obelisk is believed to have been commissioned by Queen Hatshepsut during the 18th dynasty of Ancient Egypt, around 1500 BC. Today, it is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Aswan and provides valuable insights into the methods used by ancient Egyptians to create such impressive structures.
