On the west bank of Aswan, near the southern tip of Elephantine Island, we will pick you up from your hotel and drive you to the St. Simeon Monastery in a private A/C vehicle to start your fantastic day tour. Check out the beautiful 7th-century monastery, fixed up in the 10th century and is now a place to think. The monks who went to Nubia to try to convert the native people were stuffed with information about where they were going.
