Elephantine Island

Island life, archaeology and Nile views in Aswan.

Elephantine Island

About this experience

Elephantine lies in the Nile opposite central Aswan. A short boat crossing leads to a different pace: narrow lanes pass through inhabited neighbourhoods, while archaeological remains recall the island’s long history.

In ancient times Elephantine was an important settlement near Egypt’s southern frontier. Depending on your interests, the visit can focus on a village walk, the archaeological site or a boat trip. Please respect residential spaces and ask before photographing people.
