1 hours 30 minsAdmission Ticket IncludedFrom the glorious Valley of the Kings to discover the unique Temple of the female pharaoh Hatshepsut who served as solo pharaoh for about 20 years. Through building projects, Hatshepsut assured divine favor and prosperity for her and her people; she proved that she was a responsible ruler securing the best for Egypt. Queen Hatshepsut, more a patron of the arts than a military leader, ordered a funerary monument for her father Tuthmosis I, and for herself and chose an impervious valley already consecrated to the goddess Hathor who, in the form of a heifer, received the deceased in the underworld. Queen Hatshepsut’s monument was in later times abandoned, at a certain point in history it became a Christian convent called the Convent of the North, and this fact not only gave the area its present name of Deir El-Bahari but also preserved the pharaonic temple from further destruction.Colossi of Memnon

Aswan Tour
Aswan High Dam
45 minsAdmission Ticket IncludedEnjoy your breakfast on the cruise, then visit Aswan highlights. Your first stop at the High Dam. The High Dam in Aswan, Egypt, is regarded as one of the most significant engineering feats of the twentieth century. Aswan High Dam was built to save water and protect Egypt from the Nile‘s high and low floods. Since ancient times, the Nile has been the source of life and civilization in Egypt. Every year, the Nile flooded for at least four months. Floods could be devastating at times, or low floods result in famine. Controlling the Nile flood is thus an old idea dating back to the time of the pharaohs.Temple of Philae
2 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedYour second stop at the beautiful Philae Temple. Philae Temple or the temple of Isis at Philae Island in Aswan is one of the most beautiful temples in Egypt. It is known as the “Pearl of Egypt”. The temple is located on an island, so it requires a short boat ride. At Philae Island, the popular cult of Isis developed. The image of Isis was ferried over to Bigah every ten days so that the goddess could be reunited symbolically with her husband Osiris.Unfinished Obelisk
1 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedEnd your day tour at the Granite Quarry of the Unifinished Obelisk. Among the remains of the great ancient civilizations, the obelisks of Egypt are undoubtedly more often seen and better known than any other monuments. Obelisks are impressive not only for their lofty size and graceful form but for their high polish and beautiful decoration. One cannot but marvel at the skill of the ancient Egyptians in producing such wonders with relatively primitive techniques.
