Details
Morning time, we will pick you up from your hotel in Aswan and meet your private Egyptologist tour guide to start your 4 days Egypt Christmas Nile cruise by visiting Aswan tourist attractions:
The innovative High Dam of Aswan was built in the mid-60s to offer Egypt the golden chance to enter the industrial age and protect Egypt from floodwaters and produce electricity in the process.
The most important open-air museum in Egypt is the Unfinished Obelisk, which was carved in the bedrock to stand at the Karnak temple by an order from Queen Hatshepsut (1508-1458 BC), but it was broken during the carving process, which was meant to reach the overall height of 42 m and weight of 1000 tons.
The blessed Philae Temple has the most legendary tale, “Myth of Osiris,” across its giant colossal walls that stood the test of time. It is one of the last and most preserved temples to ever be built in 380-362 BC and expanded in the Ptolemaic period between 282 and 145 BC to honor Isis, the goddess of Motherhood.

The valley is able to display the most incredible facts and information about the mythical religious beliefs and funerary practices of that era.
Hatshepsut Temple: The most complete and magical masterpiece of architecture, holy of holies, Hatshepsut Temple is able to stand out as a vision of beauty and majesty, which was carved in 1479 BCE by the overseer of works, Senenmut, in the cliffs and Deir El Bahari to honor her achievements and her role as the main golden wife of Amun.
Colossi of Memnon: The magical Colossi of Memnon stood the test of time since its creation in 1350 BC by Amenhotep III, which has the shape of seated statues that reach the height of 18 m (60 ft). It was renovated many times and is able to shed light on his life, family, and beliefs through all the inscriptions found on the statues.
