Philae Temple Sound and Light Show

You will be welcomed by a representative of Around Egypt Tours to start one of the most exciting experiences in Aswan day tour, the Philae Temple Sound and Light Show. You'll go to the dock and get ready to board a motorboat that will cruise with you through the Nile to the beautiful island of Philae. Once you're there, you'll witness the amazing Sound and Light Show that brings to life all the rich history pertaining to ancient Egypt, along with the enchanting myth of Goddess Isis, God Osiris, and their son Horus-the protector of kingship. This is an experience that immerses one in the temple's connection with the fabled history of Isis and Osiris. The Philae Temple faced difficulties during the annual inundation of the Nile, where it was submerged every year for six months. A grand rescue project moved the temple to the elevated grounds of Agilika Island, where it is located now, so as not to lose such an incredible place. Indulge in the magnificent laser light shows that you really eye the excellence of the structure with glorious history, even as you narrate it by walking through the monuments. Motorboat to the harbor after the show, then by comfortable transfer to your hotel or Nile Cruise in Aswan.
