Also known as Qasr Ibrim, the fortress was built by Roman engineers, and at the time, it was the strongest fortress in the entire Nile Valley. After the Aswan High Dam was built, the rising waters flooded all of what was once the city of Qasr Ibrim. Today, only the fortress is visible, along with the top of the hill on which it was built. The island and fortress is off limits to everyone apart from Archeologists so you will only be able to take photos from the ship’s sundeck.
After about 15 minutes, the Prince Abbas cruise will move away from the small island, and you will then be taken to visit three fascinating ancient sites: the Temple of Amada; the Temple of Derr, and the Tomb of Pennut. All three of these sites are incredible, and visiting them will be an experience which you are unlikely to forget in your lifetime.
Following your tour, you will return to the vessel, and it will begin sailing to Wadi El Seboua with a good lunch being served along the way. There are no excursions scheduled for this day so you will have ample time for relaxing.
