Itinerary

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.
