Itinerario
La tua Guida ti incontrerà al tuo hotel o crociera sul Nilo in Corniche Street ad Assuan. Dopo un caloroso benvenuto, inizierai un comodo viaggio in auto con aria condizionata per iniziare il tuo tour.
Inizia il tuo tour di Assuan attraverso il trasferimento per visitare l'obelisco incompiuto, commissionato dalla regina Hatshepsut, la donna faraone (1490–1468 aC). L'obelisco incompiuto dà un'idea eccellente delle tecniche di lavoro del muratore nell'antico Egitto. Se fosse finito sarebbe stato l'obelisco più grande e pesante mai tentato, misura circa 42 metri e pesa quasi 1.200 tonnellate.
Viaggia in motoscafo attraverso il Nilo fino al bellissimo Tempio di Philae, uno dei siti antichi più incantevoli dell'Egitto. Scopri come questo magnifico complesso di templi è stato accuratamente smantellato e trasferito sull'isola di Agilkia dall'UNESCO per proteggerla dalle acque che salgono del lago Nasser dopo la costruzione dell'Alta diga di Assuan. Accompagnato dalla tua Guida Esperta egittologa, esplora i notevoli monumenti dell'isola, tra cui il maestoso Tempio di Iside, dedicato alla dea dell'amore e della magia, l'elegante Chiosco di Traiano e l'affascinante Tempio di Hathor, noto per i suoi rilievi splendidamente scolpiti e il simbolismo musicale. Ammira le imponenti colonne, gli imponenti portali, i geroglifici dettagliati e l'ambientazione mozzafiato sul fiume mentre scopri gli affascinanti miti e la storia dietro questo santuario sacro. Dopo la visita guidata, goditi del tempo libero per passeggiare intorno all'isola, scattare foto memorabili o semplicemente rilassarti e immergerti nell'atmosfera tranquilla prima di tornare in motoscafo.
Visita l'imponente diga di Assuan, una delle più grandi realizzazioni ingegneristiche moderne dell'Egitto e un simbolo dello sviluppo del paese. In cima alla diga, godrete di una vista panoramica sul vasto lago Nasser da un lato e sul possente fiume Nilo dall'altro. La tua Guida spiegherà come la diga è stata costruita tra il 1960 e il 1970 per controllare le inondazioni annuali del Nilo, fornire irrigazione a milioni di acri di terreni agricoli e generare energia idroelettrica per l'Egitto. Ammira le incredibili dimensioni di questa struttura monumentale, cattura foto memorabili dall'area di osservazione e scopri il suo impatto significativo sull'economia e sulla vita quotidiana dell'Egitto. Dopo la visita, rilassati mentre vieni comodamente trasferito di nuovo al tuo hotel ad Assuan.

Great experience, very polite and competent guide. The tour is done well and with a good vehicle. Recommended
Wonderful exploration of Aswan major sites. Our guide Zak was the best guide we’ve had on our Egypt trip so far. Extremely knowledgeable, excellent English (he was concerned about this but his language skills were great). He pointed out all the details we would have missed on our own. Transit and other details of the tour were as expected.
What can I say Zac was one of the best guides we have had in our entire trip thus far. His education, passion and enthusiasm were just incredible and made the entire visit so incredibly memorable! We also appreciated that he asked us if we were interested in shopping as opposed to just taking us to a shop. He was amazing and if you book this tour, you must ask for Zac! He was the best !!!
Great tour. Knowledgeable and friendly guide. Would definitely recommend this private tour. Would make sure to request a boat with life jackets onboard though. Ours didn’t have any visible, which was a little concerning.
This was a wonderful experience! It was organized and well thought out but also tailored the time line to our needs so that we could take time at the temple sights that we connected to the most. We added on Abu Simbel and it was fabulous. We were safe and extremely well taken care of by everyone. Some of my family members have lower mobility and they made sure to help and prepare golf carts or walk aids when available. Most outstanding was our tour guide Saleh. Just so warm, full of joy and energy, knowledgeable! He listened to our needs and was very respectful and went out of his way to treat us well!!!
The guide constantly looked for shades / rest area throughout the whole day, which made us feel like we are slowing him down. He also constantly tried to sell us other tours even though we told him we’ve already booked other tours with other companies. He also asked us to tip the boat captain when we were coming out of Philae temple, saying he’s asked the guy to wait just for us. Overall, annoying experience.
Dear Claire_K, Have a nice day Thank you for your feedback, I'm so sorry to hear that you had a badexperience. In Aswan, it is hot weather and the sun is hot as you started your tour at 10:00 am, so the guide liked you to be in the shade not to be in direct sunny area. All tour guides like to talk and offer more of what you can experience in their city but no one will force you to buy any services. We recommend the tour guide not to talk about Tipping it is a customer personal gesture, apologize that he tell you to tip the Motor boat man. Thank you again for your feedback, we use your feedback like your to improve as a company. and we appreciate you took time to share it with us. Many thanks
We had 3 different tours during our trip to Egypt, and this was by far our favourite! Big Mac was an absolute pleasure - larger than life, incredibly knowledgable, and very funny. He met us at our hotel with the driver, and we set off for the High Dam (via the old dam). Then, off to Philae temple, which was stunning - so many periods of history covered in one place, and situated on its own island. We made the mistake of grabbing a drink at the temple cafe (twice the price compared to elsewhere in Egypt) and would recommend to others to re-hydrate using the water provided by the tour guide instead. Little things made the trip special - e.g. rather than just giving us water, which was standard with these tours regardless of provider, Big Mac also grabbed us a fizzy drink. He also tailored the trip - asking us whether we wanted to go to an alabaster workshop, essence workshop, etc and did not bat an eyelash when we asked to skip that portion! It felt like we were never under pressure to buy anything we didn't want to, which was very refreshing. 10/10 - our favourite tour of the holiday and absolutely worth the money.
We recently did this tour in Aswan. This is a private tour so you are able to move at your own pace. They bought bottled water very often you didn’t have to ask. Once you arrived at Philea, you took a small private boat to/from the island. At the unfinished obelisk, there was minimal climbing up the stone. The guide, Sherif Afify, was WONDERFUL, knowledgeable, smart, funny, accommodating, patient, and nice. Overall, I recommend doing this tour while in Aswan.
Hello Dear Tht_Queen_B, Have a nice Day Thank you so much for sharing your views and experience with Nile Holiday. We are so pleased to see how happy you are with your Aswan tours. Your review is highly appreciated and is very important to us and the community of whom are thinking about travelling soon. Thank you again!
We chose a private tour and were picked up at the hotel by our tour guide Sherif Afify. Sherif has a great personality and was extremely knowledgeable. He ensured that we had cold water throughout the tour which was amazing it was very hot in June. He also made sure we were able to handle any stairs or climbing that may have been involved. He helped with picture taking and giving us as much information about the temple in the shade or shadow as he called it which is important in the heat. I loved his stories and the knowledge he provided, he was also able to answer questions that we had. He helped us navigate through the vendors that have goods to sell. I would highly recommend Nile Holiday and Sherif Afify he was a 5 star guide. When I come back to Egypt I will be sure to ask for him again.
