ARRIVAL & TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE EXPERIENCE

Upon arrival in Aswan, begin your 4-day Nile cruise to Luxor with your professional tour guide and discover the rich history of Ancient Egypt by visiting Aswan’s most famous archaeological sites, including:

Time Line
The Aswan High Dam
The Aswan High Dam
The Aswan High Dam was constructed between 1960 and 1970 with the assistance of the Moscow-based Hydroproject Institute. Its purpose was to control the annual flooding of the Nile, generate hydroelectric power, and provide increased water storage for irrigation through Lake Nasser.
Following its construction, several ancient monuments, including Abu Simbel and Philae Temple, were threatened by rising waters. Thanks to an extraordinary UNESCO-led rescue mission in the 1960s—one of the most remarkable archaeological operations in history—these temples were successfully relocated and preserved.
The Unfinished Obelisk
The Unfinished Obelisk
The Unfinished Obelisk is a unique ancient monument that offers invaluable insight into how obelisks were carved in ancient Egypt. Commissioned by Queen Hatshepsut (1508–1458 BC), it was intended to stand at the entrance of Karnak Temple alongside what is now known as the Lateran Obelisk in Rome.
Known in ancient times as “Tekhenu,” meaning “to pierce the sky,” the obelisk would have reached a height of 42 meters and weighed approximately 1,200 tons. A crack discovered during construction halted the work, leaving the obelisk in its original location to this day.
Philae Temple
Philae Temple
Philae Temple is a breathtaking sanctuary dedicated to Isis, the goddess of love and magic. The temple is famous for its reliefs depicting the Myth of Osiris, telling the story of Osiris’s murder by his brother Set, his resurrection as ruler of the underworld, and the triumph of his son Horus, the sky god.
Due to the construction of the Aswan High Dam, the temple was relocated in the 1960s to Agilkia Island as part of a UNESCO rescue project, preserving this masterpiece for future generations.
 
At the end of the day, return to the Nile cruise for lunch and dinner on board, followed by an overnight stay.
Edfu Temple & sailling to luxor

Sailing Toward Edfu Following the eclipse, your Nile Cruise will begin sailing toward Esna, continuing your journey through the timeless landscapes of Upper Egypt. Spend a relaxing afternoon on the sun deck, taking in the ever-changing scenery as the monumental sights around Luxor gradually give way to lush agricultural fields, palm groves, and traditional villages along the Nile. As the sun sets, unwind on board and enjoy a delicious dinner while reflecting on this truly unforgettable day and the extraordinary experience of witnessing the eclipse in Egypt.
