Fantastic show and shows the temple off to it's best with lights. The story (featuring Dame Judy Dench) about Isis and Osiris is really interesting. Well worth a visit and take your camera!

If you only go to one Son et Lumiere experience in Egypt, go to this one! It's a beautiful location, one an island on Lake Nasser. The 10-minute motorboat crossing is fun and quite an adventure in the dark. One of our boats broke down and was rescued and towed by another - the crew were very quick to reassure... More

We chose to go to this one instead on Karnak as Philae is our favourite temple while doing a Nile cruise. I was a bit 'iffy' about getting on and off the motorboats in the dark but each docking area is extremely well lit. You start the evening in one area of the temple, slowly moving around with the story... More

This sound and light show was recommended to us as the best in Egypt and it really lived up to expectations. The clarity of sound and light were precise and above expectations. The story was told in a modern way, but also held true to the history of the place. It was a lovely experience to travel over the water... More

Personally we didnt enjoy this as much as the Sound and light show in Luxor. This may have been that there were only a couple of dozen people so the atmpsphere was not quite the same.. The temple is amazing, I would say go, its worth it!!

We were fortunate to watch Son et Lumiere performances at the Pyramids, at Karnak Temple and at the rescued island of Philae during a recent trip to Egypt. They are all wonderful, helping visitors to understand the complex story of this amazing civilisation. In our opinion, the performance at the rescued temple of Philae is the most dramatic, beautiful and... More

Another wonderful place to see on your visit to Egypt. The sound and Light Show takes place on an evening and it is not to be missed. Seating is provided but take your own drinks. The story that it tells you all done with lights, is amazing, it made me pinch myself.

Loved it, the island was ethereal at night, the story interesting, walking through the temple to the Holy of Holies magical. It likely helped that there were only 6 of us (in total) at the sound and light show, but thought it was much better than other shows I had been to.

A moonlit boat ride meanders through outcrops until you see the amber lit temple pylons and kiosk. You are then entranced by the charming story of the Nile and the love story of Osiris and Isis. A must for any visitor to Aswan
