Some Aswan day tours may include a boat trip on the Nile River. These boat trips can range from felucca trips, and traditional Egyptian dhows, to catamarans or motorized cruises, allowing visitors to enjoy the river and its surroundings.

However, not all Aswan day tours automatically include a boat trip on the Nile River. Some tours may focus on specific attractions or activities within Aswan itself without incorporating a Nile boat cruise.

Philae Temple.

Kom Ombo Temple.

Nubia Island (Kebso).

Lotus Garden (Abu Simbel Temple).

The Grand Aswan Dam is considered one of the important engineering landmarks and has a major impact on the region. The dam is used to regulate the flow of Nile River water and provide water for agriculture, industrial use and drinking. In addition to its role in providing water, the Aswan Dam also generates hydroelectric power.

The Aswan Dam can play a role in attracting visitors to the region because of the opportunities it provides to enjoy the natural scenery of the Nile River, as well as learning about the history and engineering of the dam itself. Visitors can also enjoy boat trips and various tourist activities available in the area surrounding the Aswan Dam.

The must-see attractions include the Philae Temple, dedicated to the goddess Isis; the High Dam, showcasing modern engineering; the Unfinished Obelisk, offering insights into ancient construction techniques; and the Nubian Village, presenting colorful cultures and lifestyles.

The dam helps prevent floods by controlling how much water goes through the river. It also gives water to farmers so they can grow more crops. The dam makes it easier for boats to travel on the river, which helps tourists and fishermen.
