From touring ancient temples to meeting a local family’s pet crocodile, our visit to Aswan was filled with unforgettable memories. Today, I’m sharing the best of them with you.
The Nubian Villages are easily the most popular tourist attraction in Aswan and it’s easy to see why. The vibrant, pastel-colored houses that paint the villages make the whole area look like a fantasyland.
The Abu Simbel temple complex was carved into the Nubian cliffs in honor of Ramesses II, one of the most powerful and celebrated pharaohs of Ancient Egypt. The temples took over 20 years to build and will take your breath away.
Feluccas are wooden boats that are manned completely by hand – they don’t have engines or sails. Cruising down the Nile on a felucca is the perfect way to take in the stunning views all around you.
Built to honor the Goddess Isis, the Philae Temple contains the last hieroglyphics ever carved in Ancient Egypt, making it a must-see attraction during your visit to Aswan.
