After breakfast, your guide takes you to the Giza Plateau to admire the three great pyramids of Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure, and the majestic Sphinx.

Temple of Horus in Edfu; sailing to Kom Ombo and Aswan

Your last morning on board includes a visit to the Aswan High Dam, before a boat takes you to Agilkia Island to admire Philae Temple, dedicated to the goddess Isis.
