Just as the pharaohs did in ancient times, we'll travel onboard a traditional sailboat. We'll first skirt along the shores of Elephantine Island. From the boat, we'll admire the Temple of Khnum and other important vestiges of the ancient world that are preserved on the island.
Next, we'll continue sailing down the Nile until we reach the other shore. As we sail along this riverbank, we'll observe notable sites from the felucca, such as the Mausoleum of Aga Khan and the Aswan Botanical Garden. We'll also pass by the so-called Tombs of the Nobles, where the remains of some high-ranking officials from ancient Pharaoh Egypt rest.
Lastly, we'll conclude this 1-hour tour by returning to our original starting point at the dock.
