Aswan tours from Marsa Alam
Are you ready for an incredible journey from Marsa Alam to Aswan? Let us paint a picture of what awaits you in this relaxed and friendly town.
Aswan, situated on the northern border of Nubia, holds a rich history and tranquil charm. Once a vital city in Egypt, it served as a crucial hub for trade between Egypt and the Southern territories, where precious goods like ivory, gold, slaves, and exotic animals flowed into Egypt. While it may have lost some of its former prominence, Aswan has regained its prime status with the development of iron foundries, aluminum mining, and the construction of the impressive High Dam.
Stepping into Aswan, you'll be greeted by a pleasant town with a wide corniche (promenade) and bustling markets. The town's aspect is simply delightful. But the best way to truly uncover the charms of Aswan is by hopping aboard a felucca, a traditional sailboat, and gliding along the watery highway that once made Aswan a vital trading post. From the felucca, you'll be treated to mesmerizing views of the town, speckled with islands hosting picturesque mud-brick Nubian villages, and framed by the West Bank.
Aswan's allure lies not only in its historical significance but also in its serene ambiance. It offers a welcome respite if you've just arrived from the busier cities of Luxor or Cairo. The town's relaxed atmosphere invites you to slow down, take a deep breath, and immerse yourself in the beauty of your surroundings.
Whether you choose to explore Aswan's vibrant markets, visit ancient temples like Philae or Abu Simbel, or simply bask in the tranquil atmosphere while sipping tea at a riverside cafe, Aswan promises an unforgettable experience.
