Itinerary and highlights

This large temple complex, relocated to the island of Agilika with the building of the High Dam in Aswan, features the magnificent Temple of Isis that was built in the late Ptolemaic and early Roman periods.

Supplying water and electricity to all of Egypt, this impressive two-mile dam was a 1960s feat of engineering.

This gigantic semi-finished obelisk, dating from the New Kingdom, would have weighed a staggering 1,197 tons if completed.
