Philae Temple and The Unfinished Obelisk Tour

Embark on a delightful journey through time with Nile Horizons on this enchanting day tour to the Philae Temple and the Unfinished Obelisk. This tour is a perfect blend of history, culture, and breathtaking sights, making it an unforgettable part of your dream holiday in Egypt.

Your adventure kicks off with a visit to the monumental High Dam, a marvel of modern engineering built in 1960. This impressive structure not only safeguards Egypt from the annual floods of the Nile but also plays a crucial role in supplying electricity to the nation.

Next, we whisk you away to the fascinating Unfinished Obelisk at the granite quarries. Here, you’ll get an exclusive glimpse into the ancient techniques used to carve these massive stone monoliths. This particular obelisk, believed to be commissioned by Queen Hatshepsut of the 18th dynasty, would have been the largest ever completed had it not been abandoned due to a crack. Standing in its presence, you’ll marvel at the grandeur of ancient craftsmanship.

Finally, your tour crescendos with a visit to the ethereal Philae Temple, nestled on the serene Agilika Island. Reached by a scenic motorboat ride, this temple is dedicated to the goddess Isis, the embodiment of motherhood and magic. As you walk through its towering pylons and intricate halls, you’ll be transported back to a time when gods and goddesses were revered, and myths were woven into the fabric of daily life.

After soaking in the majestic beauty of Philae, we will transfer you back to your hotel in Aswan, leaving you with memories to cherish forever.

Let this tour be the highlight of your Egyptian holiday, filled with wonder, discovery, and a touch of ancient magic.
