  1. Day 1: Aswan – Philae Temple & Cruise to Herdiab

    Day 1: Aswan – Philae Temple & Cruise to Herdiab Your unforgettable journey begins with a private pick-up from your hotel or Aswan airport. Morning/Afternoon: You'll be escorted for a visit to the magnificent Philae Temple, the ancient center for the cult of the goddess Isis. This iconic temple complex, originally located on an island submerged by the Nile, was famously relocated by UNESCO between 1972 and 1980 to save it from rising waters. The temple's majestic and romantic aura has drawn pilgrims and travelers for millennia. Late Afternoon: Transfer to the elegant Dahabiya boat to officially check in and begin your experience. Lunch: Enjoy your first delicious meal on board as you gently cruise towards the tranquil island of Herdiab.

Upon arrival, you will visit the unique dual temple, which stands proudly on a promontory overlooking the Nile. The temple is dedicated to two sets of deities: Sobek, the crocodile god, and Haroeris, the hawk god. In ancient times, sacred crocodiles were known to bask on the riverbank here. This Ptolemaic sandstone temple is a remarkable historical site. Lunch: Lunch is served as you continue sailing towards Djebel Silsilah. Afternoon: Dock at Djebel Silsilah. Located on the west bank of the river, you will visit the Speos of Horemheb, a fascinating rock-cut chapel dedicated to Pharaoh Horemheb (1323–1295 BC) and seven other deities, including the local god Sobek.
