Cairo Top Tours is interested in organizing many distinctive Nile cruise tours to help tourists to explore the most important archaeological sites in Egypt and learn more about the ancient Egyptian civilization.
The Pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx, Egypt's National Museum, and the Valley of Kings All of these sites are in Cairo, but if you want to see more, I recommend flying to Luxor and Aswan to visit Karnak Temple, Luxor Temple, Hatshepsut's Temple (Deir el-Bahari), and others.
The Temple of Isis at Philae was built long ago around 280 BCE in Egypt. It was made during the time of a king named Ptolemy II. The temple is special because it is dedicated to the gods Isis, Osiris, and Horus. Inside, there are pictures on the walls that tell stories about these gods, like Isis bringing Osiris back to life and giving birth to Horus. There is also a story about Osiris being mummified after he died.
