Tours in Aswan and Abu Simbel Code OPA 1
 
 

Aswan, is the best winter in Egypt, the most enchanting in the world and the least expensive; beautiful scenery, peace and quiet temperate weather, warm and dry as well as an invigorating and healing sun. Situated on the eastern bank of the Nile, 900 km south of Cairo.

Aswan links Egypt with Sudan, it is the gate to the African continent, and is such an important commercial center. What gives Aswan a special importance is that the great past and the glorious present exist on its soil, while its High Dam augurs a floating and prosperous future.
