Aswan's three set pieces make sense together. The Unfinished Obelisk is still attached to the bedrock and shows exactly how they were cut. The High Dam explains why half the monuments in Nubia are not where they were built. Philae, reassembled on Agilkia Island, is the one you take the boat to and the one you remember.
Obelisk first at 08:00 while it is cool. High Dam mid-morning. Philae by motorboat in the early afternoon, and the crossing is half the pleasure of it.
Send us the dates and how many people are travelling, by WhatsApp or the form on this page. We reply with a written itinerary and a fixed price, usually within a few hours. Confirming is a message, not a payment.
No. We ask for no deposit and take no payment to hold a date. Nothing is charged when you book and nothing is payable in advance - you settle with us in Egypt once the trip is running.
Tell us and we will change it, or cancel it, at no cost. There is no cancellation fee and no deadline to worry about, because nothing has been paid up front. If plans shift while you are already here, we will rearrange what we can on the day.
The tourist regions are heavily policed and we work in them daily. Your guide stays with you at every site. If you are travelling alone, tell us - we will match you with a guide accordingly.
