DAILY ASWAN HIGHLIGHTS TOUR ITINERARY:
Join TravelShop Turkey to take a private tour to explore three of Aswan most
popular and well known sites.
Walk on the High Dam which separates Lake Nasser from the Nile, be astounded at
the size of the Unfinished Obelisk, and enjoy the beauty of Philae Temple's
island location.
Depart your Aswan hotel or cruise ship and travel to the High Dam of Aswan, an
engineering miracle when it was built in the 1960s.
From the top of the High Dam you can gaze across Lake Nasser to Kalabsha temple
in the south and the huge power station to the north.
Afterwards we will continue to the Unfinished Obelisk in the granite quarries of
Aswan where much of the red granite used for ancient temples and colossi came
from.
The Unfinished Obelisk still lies where it was carved when a crack was
discovered as it was being hewn from the rock.
Then, Murti's Tour will accompany you to continue out journey. Philae Temple was
carefully moved to its current location (around 500 meters from the original
site) when the construction of the High Dam caused surrounding Nile waters to
rise.
A short motorboat ride takes you to the island where your guide will take you on
a walking tour through the temple before allowing you free time to explore
further on your own.
Dedicated to the goddess Isis, Philae Temple has a beautiful setting on an
island in the river.
