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.

Day 2Abu Simbel Temples

The Great Temple was built for Ramses II (1279-1213 BC), while the Small Temple was built for his beloved wife, Queen Nefertari.

Because of the rising water of Aswan High Dam, the temples had to be saved and rescued in a magnificent world rescue operation of temples in Lower Nubia. Transfer back to your hotel in Aswan.

Day 3Kom Ombo & Edfu Temples

Today you will visit the twin Temple of Horus and Sobek and the Crocodile Museum at Kom Ombo. The temple is dedicated to the two triads of Horus and Sobek.

The island contains hundreds of inscriptions and royal cartouches, immortalizing countless officials and kings. Many of these inscriptions can be seen on the large granite boulders surrounding the island.
