Aswan Overnight Tour from Cairo for 2-Day

Considered the jewel of southern Egypt, Aswan is ablaze with unparalleled beauty and monumental history. With two days to join this tour to and from Cairo, one could hardly forget the quietness on the banks of the Nile, with its temples and little islands staring back in time. Aswan's best stretches from Philae Temple, where awful splendor is married to beauty, to that great engineering problem, the High Dam, mingling with Nubian culture.

Our representative will meet and assist you at the arrival hall of the airport as a start for your enthralling journey, with an obvious visit to the Aswan High Dam, a contemporary engineering wonder controlling the Nile flow for power to Egypt. Next is a boat ride to Philae Temple, an island temple dedicated to the goddess Isis, with immense beauty all over that is nowhere but brutish hieroglyphs and detailed carvings.

Visit the Unfinished Obelisk, a colossal granite monument that gives evidence of ancient stone-cutting craftsmanship. The evening at this comfortable hotel will find you resting, or strolling in the charming souks of Aswan. Sail down the Nile in a typical felucca, passing Elephantine Island and relishing its placid view. Visit the Nubian houses and settle into their genuine hospitality, learning about their traditions amid the colorful walls.
