The Nile at its most serene — pink granite, Nubian colour, and the island temple of Isis.
Aswan is where Egypt softens into Africa. The city sits at the First Cataract of the Nile, where the river narrows between smooth pink granite boulders and the Sahara presses in on both sides — one of the most beautiful landscapes in the country. Your private day trip from Marsa Alam includes Philae Temple, the enchanting island sanctuary of the goddess Isis reached by a short motorboat ride; the mighty Aswan High Dam; the Unfinished Obelisk, still lying in the granite quarry where it was left 3,500 years ago; and a colourful stroll through the Nubian market on the corniche. For a magical finish, an optional felucca sailboat ride at sunset can be arranged. An Egyptologist guide is available on request — just ask when booking.
