Detailed itinerary

Pickup and briefing

Meet at the point confirmed for Aswan. Your representative reviews the route, included services and return arrangements. The stated 6-hour duration is approximate and includes transfers and activity preparation, not continuous time inside a site.

Stop 1 · Philae Temple

Take the arranged boat to the Philae temple complex and explore its island setting with your guide. Discuss the cult of Isis and the monuments’ relocation without rushing the waterfront views. Boat access involves steps and changing water levels; mobility needs must be checked with the actual embarkation facilities.

Return and drop-off

Complete the planned visits and return to the agreed meeting point in Aswan. Tell the team about an onward flight or train before confirmation. Weather, access restrictions and traffic may change the sequence; material changes are discussed rather than silently replacing included services.

Included

  • Pickup and drop-off within the confirmed central area; distant resorts or islands need a separate arrangement
  • Private road transfers and English-speaking guide
  • Boat connection or felucca service explicitly described in the route

Excluded

  • Attraction admission and special tickets unless explicitly listed as included
  • Personal purchases, gratuities and optional activities
  • Travel insurance, visas and flights unless explicitly included

Price and booking basis

Indicative regular price: US$49 per adult, based on 2 adults travelling together.

Indicative regular base rate in USD, proposed for standard non-holiday dates and subject to written confirmation before booking. No live availability is implied. Christmas, New Year, Easter and the August 2027 eclipse period require a separate quotation. There is no fabricated discount or crossed-out comparison price.

Children’s ages, solo occupancy, additional passengers and accessibility arrangements are quoted individually. Required extras are disclosed before payment; an enquiry does not reserve inventory.

Pickup and practical details

In Aswan, boats and road transport often need to be coordinated. A central hotel, an island property and a West Bank guesthouse can involve different meeting arrangements. Send the full address and ask who organises any river crossing. An Abu Simbel excursion also needs a workable road schedule, especially when a cruise departs later the same day. Avoid treating a published itinerary as proof that a particular ship or transfer is available on your date.

Please provide the full hotel name, arrival details and a contact number that works during travel. Tell us about mobility needs, dietary restrictions and children’s ages before confirmation. No specific accessibility, language upgrade or special venue access is assumed without agreement.

Cancellation

Cancel in writing at least 24 hours before the confirmed service start for a full refund of the amount paid to Wow Travel Egypt for that service. The cutoff uses the local time shown in your confirmation. For a multi-day booking, the cutoff is measured from the start of the whole booking.

Frequently asked questions

Does an enquiry confirm my booking?

No. We confirm the date, services and total price in writing before a reservation is accepted. Do not book dependent transport on the basis of an indicative rate alone.

Are entrance fees included?

Use the inclusions above and your written quotation. Standard cultural admission and special tickets are excluded unless specifically listed; activity admission such as the booked boat or beach pass follows its own inclusion list.

Can the route be adapted?

Tell us your priorities before confirmation. Changes may affect price, transport or the available time. A safety or access restriction cannot be overridden by a request.
