Itinerary

with a visit to the High Dam

At 8:00 AM, your licensed expert guide from Wow Travel Tours will greet you at your hotel, Nile cruise, or Aswan airport. Begin your immersive day tour with a visit to the High Dam, a remarkable feat of engineering completed in 1960 that plays a crucial role in protecting Egypt from the annual flooding of the Nile.

to the Unfinished Obelisk

Next, continue your tour to the Unfinished Obelisk, which offers a fascinating glimpse into the techniques employed by ancient Egyptians in carving these monumental structures. This obelisk is believed to be associated with Queen Hatshepsut of the 18th Dynasty, the royal wife of King Thutmose II, and owner of a temple on the eastern bank of Luxor. Alternatively, some suggest it may belong to Queen Nefertiti.

Stop 3

Proceed to the majestic Philae Temple, dedicated to the goddess Isis, the principal deity of the island. After exploring this remarkable site, you will be transferred back to your hotel.
