About this activity
Enjoy your Aswan Day Tour! Our Sun Pyramids Tours representative will pick you up from your hotel in
Aswan to enjoy a day tour in the amazing city Aswan. Start your tour by a visit to the
High Dam, an engineering miracle built in 1960 protecting
Egypt from annual floods from the Nile. Then proceed to visit the
Unfinished Obelisk which shows the techniques used by the ancient Egyptians to cut obelisks. Most probably this obelisk belongs to
Queen Hatshepsut, one of the rulers of the 18th Dynasty and the royal wife of king Tuthmosis II. This queen was the owner of her Temple in the eastern bank of
Luxor . Also there is an opinion said that it belongs to
Queen Nefertiti. Move on to visit the majestic
Philae Temple which was built on the honor of Goddess Isis the chief deity of the island. Later you will be transferred back to your hotel.
