Aswan & Lake NasserEgypt's southernmost city and one of her most beautifulAswan is larger but much quieter than Luxor, it is Egypt's southernmost city and one of her most beautiful, sitting alongside some of the best stretches of the Nile - wide, green and dotted with pretty islands, with high desert hills topped with the Aga Khan's Mausoleum as a dramatic backdrop
Lake Nasser CruisesA timeless journey through the Legends of NubiaTo the south of Aswan stands Lake Nasser, an enormous reservoir formed by the building of the high dam in 1971. Here you will discover the lesser known temples as well as Abu Simbel, Egypt's greatest monument after the Pyramids. These ancient temples which represent incredible feats of modern engineering as they were relocated to escape the rising waters brought about by the building of the dam are best enjoyed on board a luxurious cruise across the tranquil waters of Lake Nasser. Cruises on Lake Nasser operate 3 or 4 night durations aboard either the luxurious MS Eugenie or the MS Kasr Ibrim. We normally recommend combining stays in other resorts such as Luxor or Aswan. |
