Introduction by Egyptologist Guide:

During this Nubian Museum Private Tour, the guide provides a clear and engaging introduction to one of Egypt’s most important museums, explaining its role in preserving artifacts from Nubia and nearby archaeological sites, including areas affected by the High Dam.

Background on Nubian Rescue Campaign:

As part of the Nubian Museum Private Tour, you will learn about UNESCO’s Nubian Rescue Campaign of the early 1960s, launched to save Nubian monuments before they were submerged by the rising waters of Lake Nasser following the construction of the Aswan High Dam.

These exhibits vividly tell the story of Nubian civilization, offering insight into daily life, religious practices, craftsmanship, and artistic expression throughout different historical periods.

Inspired by traditional Nubian village design, the building and enclosure walls reflect the style of communities that once thrived along the Nubian Nile before flooding changed the landscape, enhancing the authenticity of the Nubian Museum Private Tour experience.
