Itinerary
DayDay Our Egyptologist guide will take you to the Nubian Museum which is considered to be one of the most important Egyptian museums. Featuring exhibits and artifacts from the surrounding sites such as the High Dam, the museum is a "must-do" for any visitor to Aswan. In the early 1960's, when Egypt built the High Dam at Aswan, Egyptologists and archaeologists the world over heeded UNESCO's appeal to salvage the monuments of Egyptian Nubia before the rising waters of Lake Nasser submerged them forever. More than sixty expeditions ultimately joined the "Nubian Rescue Campaign", which resulted in the excavation and recording of hundreds of sites, the recovery of thousands of objects, and the salvage and relocation of a number of important temples to higher ground. Due to the quantities of material recovered from tombs, temples and settlements, UNESCO was encouraged in the 1980's to plan a new Nubian museum in Aswan where the objects could be stored and exhibited. It was universally felt at the time that they should be kept as close as possible to their principal places of origin. Nearly 12 years later, the Museum became a reality and opened its doors in November 1997. The architecture of the Museum and the enclosure walls are intended to evoke traditional Nubian village architecture, as it was along the Nubian Nile before the region was flooded by Lake Nasser. Your qualified Egyptologist guide will show you some of the most important artifacts before allowing you free time to explore the museum at your leisure. The building is set within a landscape, on graded levels, that includes a sequence of waterfalls. When the waterway reaches the lower part of the garden, it divides into 2 branches to surround an open-air stage and amphitheater where already many local and foreign groups have performed. The remaining 43,000 square meters have been planted with palm trees, flowers, and climbing plants, spread over natural rocks.

The Nubian Museum is a gem for anyone passionate about Egyptian history and culture. It offers an incredible opportunity to explore artifacts that showcase the rich heritage of the Nubian civilization. The attention to detail in the exhibits is truly remarkable, and I was amazed by the stories told through the artifacts from the High Dam area. This museum is a must-visit for history enthusiasts and anyone eager to connect with the ancient world
Sarah Jones –
Visiting the Nubian Museum was a transformative experience for me. The presentation of Nubian culture and history was so immersive, and I especially loved learning about the struggles and triumphs of the people during the construction of the High Dam. It’s wonderful to see such an important part of history preserved and celebrated so beautifully. I highly recommend it to everyone!
Alex Brown –
I found the Nubian Museum to be both educational and inspiring. It’s amazing how the artifacts and exhibits paint a vivid picture of Nubian life and traditions. The effort to preserve this heritage deserves applause. Every corner of the museum tells a story that leaves visitors in awe.
Shirley Kay Vaughn –
From the moment we walked in, it was clear this museum is a labor of love. Everything from the entrance to the final exhibit felt intentional. The private nature of the tour made it feel special, like we had the whole place to ourselves. I especially enjoyed the section about Nubian architecture and how communities adapted to the Nile’s changes. It made me appreciate the resilience of these people. Our driver shared some great local insights too, which made the ride just as informative as the museum.
Clyde Allen Morrison –
We booked this tour to escape the heat and ended up finding one of the coolest places in Aswan—literally and figuratively. The air conditioning alone was a lifesaver, but what really stuck with us was the craftsmanship in the displays. Every section was thoughtfully put together. You could tell the curators cared. The guide explained the significance of each region represented. It’s easy to overlook museums when you’re on a temple spree, but this one adds real depth to your trip.
Martha Lou Pritchard –
I thought a museum tour might be a bit dry, but nope—I was wrong. The Nubian Museum had this incredible way of pulling you in. The layout was modern, the lighting was dramatic, and the artifacts had really clear explanations in English. Even my husband, who usually zones out during museum visits, said he learned a lot. 😂👍 We had time to grab some local snacks afterward and even had a little stroll near the gardens. Worth every minute.
Earl Dean Whitaker –
There’s something poetic about The Nubian Museum. You walk in and it’s quiet—not boring quiet, but respectful quiet. You learn with your eyes more than your ears. I was drawn into the life of Nubian communities, their art, their clothing, their tools. It was emotional in a way I didn’t expect. The driver and guide gave us full control of the pace. I never felt rushed or overwhelmed. Just me, history, and the echo of ancient life. 🖼️🕊️
Nancy Sue Holbrook –
We’ve been visiting Egypt bit by bit, and this time we focused on Aswan and the south. The private visit to The Nubian Museum stood out because it felt different—less grand, more intimate. The story of Nubia is so rich but often lost in the noise of pyramids and pharaohs. I appreciated how the museum gives space to voices we don’t often hear in history books. The exhibits were well-maintained, and the museum was spotless. Also, the driver knew some great scenic routes along the way.
Waylon Travis Jenkins –
We took this tour in February 2025 and the weather was nice, but it’s the museum’s cool, quiet interior that made the day perfect. I didn’t know much about Nubia before, but the tour helped piece it all together—from artifacts to modern life. There were interactive displays, ancient pottery, even a reconstructed Nubian house. Loved every second. The car was super comfy, our guide was funny and full of facts, and the ride back gave us plenty of time to reflect. 🌞🏺
Loretta June Wallace –
Our private day trip to The Nubian Museum came after a long week of temples and markets, and it was honestly a perfect break. The museum was so peaceful you could hear your own footsteps. 🧘♀️✨ We got to explore without any rush, and the exhibits really helped tie together what we had seen in other historical sites. The High Dam pieces were particularly interesting—some of them had been relocated so carefully you could still feel their original presence. If you’re feeling “templed out,” this is a great stop to recharge.
Raymond Earl Tucker –
I’ve been to Cairo and Luxor museums, but honestly, the Nubian Museum felt like the hidden gem of them all. The artifacts from ancient Nubia blew my mind. It’s rare to find such a strong focus on this unique part of Egypt’s heritage. There were ancient tools, statues, and colorful murals I hadn’t seen anywhere else. It gave me a totally different view of Egyptian history—more grounded and local. The tour was smooth, the guide knew his stuff, and the driver was punctual. I’m glad we included this stop on our trip.
Darlene Mae Cooper –
We visited the Nubian Museum on our private day tour and were instantly struck by the clean, modern design. It felt more like an art gallery than a museum. What I loved most was how personal the experience felt—no crowds, no stress, just peaceful exploration. The section showcasing the traditional Nubian lifestyle made me feel like I had walked into someone’s old village home. 🚪🌿 We had time to ask questions, take photos, and admire without being rushed. A great mix of elegance and education.
Billy Joe Watson –
The private day tour to The Nubian Museum was a surprisingly calming and eye-opening experience. I didn’t expect to enjoy a museum so much on vacation, but this one was something else. Everything from the architecture of the building to the arrangement of the artifacts was stunning. It felt like stepping through time—centuries of culture packed into one place. The exhibits from the High Dam area were super detailed, and the lighting made it feel dramatic but not overdone. Bonus: air conditioning was perfect after the desert heat. Great for history lovers or anyone wanting a quiet cultural day.
