Although the dam has caused a not-inconsiderable environmental impact, the view, especially from above, is breathtaking

Then moving to the next and very unique destination, The Unfinished Obelisk, The Obelisk of Aswan is the very find thanks to which it was possible to explain how the ancient Egyptians did to divide the finished sculpture from the stone bed once finished, it would seem a complicated process that requires advanced equipment and techniques, instead, it is very simple: they used wet wood. Learn more about the storey behind it with your professional Egyptologist.

The last visit shall be to the beautiful temple of Philae, late, The Pearl of Egypt, which was a beautiful island surrounded by clear blue water and black granite boulders.
The walls of the temples at Philae are covered in ancient hieroglyphs. Amongst the large carvings of the gods of Ancient Egypt are the inscriptions in the ornate pictorial alphabet, telling the stories of this civilisation.

Day 2/

Early in the morning (usually around 4 am), our driver will pick you up the reception to visit the most beautiful temple in Egypt,
