Philea Temple

Aswan High Dam

At 8:00 AM, your licensed expert guide from Wow Travel Tours will warmly greet you at your hotel, Nile cruise, or Aswan airport. Your immersive day tour begins with a visit to the High Dam, a monumental achievement in engineering completed in 1960. This impressive structure plays a vital role in regulating the Nile River, preventing the annual floods that have historically impacted agriculture and settlements in Egypt. As you explore the High Dam, your guide will share insights into its construction, significance, and the benefits it has brought to the region, such as improved irrigation and hydroelectric power generation. You'll also have the chance to take in stunning views of Lake Nasser, one of the largest artificial lakes in the world, which was created as a result of the dam's construction. This visit not only highlights an important aspect of Egypt's modern history but also sets the stage for your exciting exploration of cultural and historical treasures.

Unfinished Obelisk

Next, continue your tour to the Unfinished Obelisk, which offers a fascinating glimpse into the ancient Egyptians' carving techniques for these monumental structures. This obelisk is thought 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. Some theories also suggest it may belong to Queen Nefertiti. As you explore the site, your guide will explain the methods used in its construction, highlighting the artistry and labor that went into creating these impressive monuments.

Temple of Philae

Next, proceed to the magnificent Philae Temple, dedicated to the goddess Isis, the principal deity of the island. After exploring this extraordinary site and soaking in its rich history, you will be transferred back to your hotel.
