Nubian village tour

Strolling through their shady alleys and gardens is a wonderful way to experience life on modern Elephantines. A north-south path across the middle of Elephantine Island links the two villages and about halfway along is the Nubian Café, with a shady garden beside a traditional Nubian house. Take a day trip from Aswan on an Egyptian sailboat and visit a Nubian village on Soheil Island. Enjoy the scenery on the river and get a closer look at Nubian village life.
