The construction of the High Dam at Aswan led to the creation of the world’s largest man-made lake, Lake Nasser. With it came the opportunity to cruise its picturesque waters on board luxurious vessels, visiting a selection of temples and ancient sites. Many of these temples represent incredible feats of modern engineering, as they have been moved from their original sites to escape the rising waters brought by the construction of the dam. A cruise on Lake Nasser allows you the incomparable experience of dining by candlelight on board your boat as it is moored beside Abu Simbel.
