Your amazing adventure begins in Aswan, which is one of southern Egypt's most atmospheric and charming cities. Upon arrival at Aswan Airport or Aswan Train Station, you will meet Coralon Travel's professional tour guide to enjoy your first exciting sightseeing tour.
You will see the impressive High Dam, the structure of which was designed as a massive, broad embankment dam—so robust that it can withstand a powerful military strike, including destructive tactical nuclear bombs, without collapsing.
You will enjoy a short boat ride, which leads to the magnificent Philae Temple, beautifully and perfectly situated on Agilkia Island. This magnificent temple was built specifically to worship the goddess Isis and to commemorate her famous, legendary story; it is said that she found the heart of her husband, Osiris, near the island of Philae and established a shrine there to visit it. The temple originally occupied a quarter of the island's area before being skillfully relocated to Agilkia Island, situated 500 meters away from Philae.
You will be amazed by the admirable Unfinished Obelisk because instead of seeing a polished monument, you will see the original quarry itself and traces of the ancient craftsmen's work. Cracks in the huge granite appear to have prevented the monument from being completed, leaving behind a rare and extraordinary archaeological record of the smart techniques used to carve enormous stone monuments.
After finishing your first tour, you will be smoothly transferred to your beautiful cruise to enjoy your first lunch meal onboard. In the evening, you will enjoy a delicious dinner and spend a peaceful night.
