Tour to Temple of Philae

Description

At the time you agreed with our guide, they will meet you at your hotel reception, Nile cruise, railway station, or Aswan airport. The guide will accompany you on a half-day tour of Philae Temple.

You will take a short motorboat to the beautiful ISIS temple. The guide will tell you stories about the temple's history, including the myths of Osiris, Isis, and Seth. You will learn how the loyal wife found her husband's heart here.

Your guide will show you the Curse of the two Obelisks standing in front of the first Pylon and explain what happened to everyone involved in moving them to Kingston Palace in the UK. They will also tell you about the best MAMISI and its function at that time. 

You will see the last hieroglyphic text in all of Egypt in this temple. Your guide will show you the beautiful design of transporting the Osiris body on the back of the crocodile from Abydos to Philae. Also see the French graffiti that dates back to 1800 and the amazing Trajan Kiosk, and your guide will tell you about how the original island was underwater after building the High Dam and how UNESCO saved the temple at its present site.

After your visit, your guide and driver will take you back to wherever you like in Aswan.
