Your evening begins with pickup and a smooth transfer to the Nile dock. From there, you will board a motorboat to cross the river toward the beautiful Philae Temple.
Located on Agilika Island, the temple is famous not only for its spiritual importance, but also for its remarkable story of rescue and relocation after it was endangered by the Nile’s yearly floods through a major UNESCO-led effort. Once you arrive, the night-time presentation starts as the temple is illuminated with striking laser projections and accompanied by narration that guides you through ancient Egyptian beliefs.
As you move through the glowing columns and sacred areas, the show recounts the powerful legend of the goddess Isis, her husband Osiris, and their son Horus, the divine guardian of kingship. After the Sound and Light Show at Philae Temple concludes, you will take the boat back across the Nile and then be transferred to your hotel or Nile Cruise in Aswan.
