About this tour

OVERVIEW

Some stories are best told from the water.
This immersive half-day experience takes you beyond the ordinary — beginning
with the breathtaking Philae Temple, rising from the Nile like a sacred mirage.
Guided by an expert Egyptologist, you’ll trace tales of Isis and Osiris before
sharing a cozy Nubian-style lunch with warm local flavors.
Then, trade stone for stream as you hop into your kayak and glide through the
calm waters of Nubia, paddling in the shadow of ancient temples and sunlit
boulders. With every stroke, you’ll feel history and nature merge — adventure
wrapped in silence, water, and story.
