While touring this historic site, you'll marvel at the ancient underground tombs and gain insight into the burial practices of ancient Egyptian royalty.

Next, we'll proceed to the Valley of the Queens, once a significant burial site for queens, princes, and nobles during the 18th and 19th dynasties. Although no longer a royal burial ground after the 20th dynasty, the valley still houses many tombs, some of which have been extensively reused and modified over the centuries.

Afterward, we'll pause for a relaxing lunch amidst these historical wonders.

Following our break, we'll visit el-Deir el-Bahari, a complex of pharaonic temples and tombs located on the west bank of the Nile. Built by Queen Hatshepsut, this architectural marvel served as a monastery for performing rituals intended to benefit her in the afterlife.

Our journey will culminate with a visit to the Colossi of Memnon, two imposing statues that once stood guard at the entrance of an ancient funerary temple dedicated to King Amenhotep III.

then you will Visit the temple of Komombo The name Kom Ombo is divided into two parts: The first part: “Kum,” which means “hill.” The second part: “embo”, which is a transliteration of “anbu” or “nebo”, meaning “gold”. This is because this city controlled the roads that lead to the gold mines, and the temple was known in Egyptian texts as Pasobek. That is, the headquarters of Sobek, that place in which he was worshiped since pre-dynastic times, and this temple is located on a very high hill, overlooking the Nile River.

Carved from pink granite, the obelisk stands as the longest Egyptian obelisk, towering at 42 meters in length and weighing around 1,000 tonnes, displaying noticeable cracks on its surface.

Our tour of Aswan concludes with a visit to the Nubian village.
