Itineraries

Your adventure begins in the early morning with a private pickup from your hotel in Soma Bay. You will travel by a modern A/C vehicle to catch a first-class train toward the "Jewel of the Nile," Aswan. Upon arrival, your professional private guide will lead you on an exploration of Aswan’s signature landmarks.

Your first stop is the Aswan High Dam, a modern engineering marvel built in the 1960s to tame the Nile, protect Egypt from floods, and generate sustainable electricity. You will then visit the Unfinished Obelisk, the largest known ancient obelisk commissioned by Queen Hatshepsut. This massive granite structure offers a unique glimpse into ancient stone-working techniques, having remained in its bedrock after a crack appeared during its creation.

The morning concludes at the Philae Temple, a mesmerizing Ptolemaic sanctuary dedicated to Isis, the goddess of motherhood and healing. Relocated to Agilkia Island to save it from the rising waters of the Nile, the temple features stunning wall carvings that tell the eternal myth of Osiris. Following your tour, you will enjoy a deluxe lunch at a restaurant with a panoramic Nile view before checking into your 5-star hotel.

Overnight: 5* Aswan Hotel

 

Your second day begins in the early morning as you receive a fresh breakfast box and depart with your guide for the Abu Simbel Temples. Located deep in the heart of Nubia, these rock-cut masterpieces were built by Ramses the Great in 1200 BC.

You will explore the Great Temple, guarded by four colossal seated statues of Ramses II, and the smaller temple dedicated to his beloved Queen Nefertari. Your guide will explain the precision of the Sun Festival, where the rays of the sun illuminate the inner sanctum twice a year, as well as the monumental effort to move these temples to their current location.

After your visit, you will return to Aswan for a high-quality lunch. You will then catch the train back to Luxor, where your private driver will be waiting to escort you in your luxury A/C vehicle back to your hotel in Soma Bay, concluding your epic two-day expedition.
