After breakfast, you will continue your tour in Aswan by visiting the Philae Temple, a special place where the story of Isis, Osiris, and Horus unfolds. This temple was built especially for the goddess Isis, who was worshipped there.
For lunch, you will go to a nearby restaurant. Afterward, you'll return to your hotel in Aswan. At night, you can enjoy a fantastic experience called the Philae Temple Sound and Light Show (optional tour). This show will take you on a journey through the history of ancient Egypt and the fascinating myths surrounding the goddess Isis and the god Osiris.
The Philae Temple used to be in danger of being submerged in water for six months each year due to the Nile's flooding. But, in the middle of the 20th century, a crucial effort was made to save it from disappearing. The temple was moved to a higher ground on Agilika Island, where it stands today. During the show, you'll witness stunning laser displays that showcase the grandeur of the ancient site. As you walk around the impressive monuments on the island, you'll hear captivating stories about its history.
After the show, you'll take a boat back to the harbor, and then a shuttle will bring you back to your hotel in Aswan.
