pyrameds

The number one activity in Cairo is by far the Great Pyramids of Giza and the Great Sphinx. Dated almost 5000 years ago, these monuments and their great conservation state are some of the greatest things you can experience with the naked eye. Located in the Giza Complex on the west side of the Nile River banks,

the Great Pyramids and the Great Sphinx are Cairo’s best-kept treasures. It has many tombs. It consists of the great Giza Pyramids (Khufu, Khafre,

and Mankaure), which are considered to be one of the seven wonders of the world, and the Khufu Pyramid is considered to be the grandest in the complex. This complex also contains the amazing Sphinx and the Valley Temple.

Old Egyptian Museum

Egyptian Museum

Centrally located on the edge of Tahrir Square in Cairo, the Egyptian Museum is hard to miss on any tour of Cairo. Opening in 1902, it was purpose-built to house the antiquities of Ancient Egypt. Inside is the greatest collection of Ancient Egyptian archeological history in the world.

The Egyptian Museum in Cairo houses over 120,000 artifacts, including the contents of Tutankhamun’s tomb and most of the mummies that have been discovered since the 19th century. The museum’s exhibits span from the beginning of the Old Kingdom of Ancient Egypt

(approximately 2700 BC) through the Greco-Roman period. The building consists of two floors. On the ground floor, you can follow the history of Egypt from the Old Kingdom up through the Greco-Roman period by turning left at the entrance and looping around.

High Dam

When construction began on the High Dam in 1960, it was the most heralded part of President Gamal Abdel Nasser’s effort to develop Egypt for all Egyptians. While the dam is certainly not the largest in the world,

it is nonetheless an impressive engineering feat, over 360 feet tall and 12,500 feet across. The dam was completed in 1971, and the huge reservoir behind it, named for President Nasser, finished filling in 1979.

 Philae temple.

Kom Ombo temple 

kom_ombo_temple_Aswan_Egypt

The setting of this Temple of Sobek, the crocodile god, makes an approach by water the far superior way to visit this site.

The temple is perched atop a picturesque bluff alongside the river and while there are no longer any crocodiles in the river or the sacred lake inside the temple complex, this riverside temple is still worthy of a visit.
Like the other two sites between Luxor and Aswan,

Kom Ombo dates from the Ptolemaic Dynasty and it was only completed under Roman rule. The temple has a dual dedication to Sobek, as well as Horus, and the plan of the temple reflects this dual purpose. Afternoon Tea. Visit the temple shared by the two gods, Sobek and Haroeris.

Sail to Edfu. Visit 

Hours temple

Edfu_temple_Aswan_Egypt

The Temple of Horus at Edfu is widely considered to be the most impressive of all of the Nile-side temples along the journey between Luxor and Aswan. It is a required stop by all of the cruise ships that make the trip, also stopping at Esna and Kom Ombo. Like at Esna,

the temple at Edfu is a late construction. It was built during the Greco-Roman Period, but the builders painstakingly preserved the form of Egypt’s true pharaohs. As a result.

a visit to Edfu allows you to see what all of the other ruined temples around Egypt might have looked like had they been built 2,000 years later.

Cross the lock. Sail to Luxor.Afternoon Tea. Dinner on board & Galabya party. Overnight in Luxor.

Karnak temple

Being the largest building for religious purposes ever to be constructed, the Karnak Temple was known as the “most select of places” by ancient Egyptians.

During the New Kingdom, the Karnak Temple Complex was the center of the ancient faith while power was concentrated at Thebes (modern-day Luxor) and its significance is reflected in its enormous size.

In addition to its religious significance, it also served as a treasury, administrative center, and palace for the New Kingdom pharaohs. It is to this day, considered the largest temple complex ever constructed anywhere in the world.
