Lake Nasser Nile Cruise (8 days - 7 nights) Packages include:
The program: Day 1 - Aswan: Arrival in Aswan where we will be met and transferred to the Nile Cruiser. Lunch is served on board during the short trip, going south to Aswan. In the afternoon, we visit the High Dam, the Unfinished Obelisk and the magnificent Temple of Philae. Day 2 - Cruising Lake Nasser: After breakfast this morning, we embark on a short felucca cruise around Elephantine Island and Kitchener's Island from where we may see the splendid botanical gardens or view the Aga Khan Mausoleum, which is situated on the western bank of the Nile. Day 3 - Cruising Lake Nasser: In the morning, we sail to Qasr (Castle) Ibrim which still occupies its original position. Though now on an island, it was once situated on the eastern bank of the Nile. Then we continue to Amadah Temple, built by Tutmoses III and Amenhotep II, before making our way to the roch cut Temple of Derr, which was at one time, used as a Christian Church. Day 4 - Cruising Lake Nasser: Today's highlight is a guided excursion to the famous Temple of Abu Simbel, built by the greatest of the Pharaohs, Ramses II.
