The next day, sail toward the tranquil Gebel el Silsila Temple, an often-overlooked treasure that sits near the ancient quarries of Egypt. After soaking in the temple’s history, continue toward the picturesque Bassaw Village, where time seems to stand still. Meet the villagers, learn about their agricultural practices, and even bake traditional sun bread with them. In the evening, enjoy a lively Egyptian folkloric presentation, bringing the essence of Egyptian culture to life with music and dance.
