Exploring the Jewels of Scenic Aswan

Savor a hearty breakfast at your hotel, and then set out with your expert King Tut Tours guide to discover the monumental engineering and mythic masterpieces that define stunning Aswan:

The High Dam

Your tour begins at the epic High Dam, which represents the modern engineering might of the city of Aswan. This colossal dam was constructed between 1960 and 1970 during the visionary reign of President Gamal Abdel-

Nasser. Designed as a massive cooperation project with the Moscow-based Hydroproject Institute, the dam gave Egypt complete control over the annual Nile flooding, generates vital hydroelectricity, and created the enormous water storage reservoir known as Lake Nasser to boost irrigation.

Lunch Time

Take a wonderful break to indulge in a delicious, freshly prepared lunch at a top-tier local restaurant in Aswan.

The Mythic Philae Temple

Conclude your sightseeing day by boarding a boat to visit Philae Temple, the absolute essence of pure myth, allure, and architectural charm in Aswan. It is globally famous for being the spiritual center for the “Myth of

Osiris,” which tells the gripping story of how the god Osiris was slain by his envious brother Set, resurrected by his loving wife Isis, and avenged by their son Horus to bring justice to the world. In the 1960s, the entire

temple complex was meticulously dismantled and relocated to the neighboring island of Agilkia in a monumental UNESCO salvage campaign to save it from drowning after the construction of the High Dam.

Overnight

Following this fabulous day of discovery, you will be driven back to your 5* Aswan hotel to relax and enjoy the night.

The Colossal Abu Simbel Temples

After a scenic 3-hour drive southwest of Aswan, you will stand in front of the ultimate triumph of architectural engineering achieved during Egypt’s Golden New Kingdom era. Carved directly into the heart of a solid

sandstone mountain under the strict orders of the great King Ramses II (1279–1133 BC), these temples serve as a grand, eternal declaration of his epic victory at the Battle of Kadesh and his deep devotion to his beloved

wife, Queen Nefertari. The Great Temple features four jaw-dropping, 20-meter-high seated statues of Ramses II guarding the entrance. The interior is brilliantly engineered so that sunlight penetrates the dark sanctuary to

illuminate the faces of the gods exactly twice a year during the historic Sun Festival. Following the construction of the High Dam, the entire complex was saved from the rising waters of Lake Nasser in a globally celebrated

UNESCO salvage campaign that meticulously moved the temples to higher ground.
