Overview

Embark on a captivating half-day tour in Aswan with a pickup from your hotel or cruise, arranged by Aladdin Reizen. This tour offers a blend of ancient history and cultural exploration:

The Temple of Kalabsha: Situated on the Western Bank of the River Nile, about 40 miles south of Aswan, near the High Dam, the Temple of Kalabsha is a significant historical site. Originally constructed by Pharaohs Toutmosis II and Amenophis II, the temple underwent restoration during the Roman era. Its location on a hill near the High Dam adds to its scenic and historical appeal, making it a must-visit for those interested in Egypt's rich past.

Nubian Museum: Named after the ancient Egyptian word “Nbu,” meaning gold, in reference to the region's renowned gold mines, the Nubian Museum is a treasure trove of history and culture. The museum was established following the construction of the High Dam, as a means to preserve thousands of antiquities that would have otherwise been submerged under Lake Nasser's waters. Opened in 1997, the museum not only showcases significant archaeological finds but also offers vivid displays of Nubian life and culture, providing a comprehensive understanding of the region's heritage.

After exploring these fascinating sites, you will be conveniently transferred back to your hotel or cruise, concluding an enriching and memorable tour in Aswan.
