Day 11 – Philae Temple

Day 11 – Philae Temple

We will sail to Aswan this morning. It is time to say good-bye to our beautiful Dahabeya and the staff who have looked after us. From Aswan we will transfer to the Philae Temple.

Philae Temple is known as the Temple of Isis representing the feminine and divine love. Built during the reign of Ptolemy II (Egypt’s Greco-Roman Period), the Temple of Isis at Philae is dedicated to Isis, Osiris, and Horus. The temple walls contain scenes from Egyptian mythology of Isis bringing Osiris back to life, giving birth to Horus, and mummifying Osiris after his death.
Enjoy a local Nubian meal for late lunch. Then transfer to Elephantine Island and our luxury resort.
Accommodations: Movenpick Aswan
