Philae

Philae Temple Complex sits on an island in the Nile near Aswan, where calm water and granite hills create a setting that feels carefully placed in the river. The temple buildings rise from the island like carved stone reflections of the cliffs around them, and reaching the site requires a short boat ride across still waters. This approach is part of the experience, as visitors leave the shore behind and glide toward an island that seems built for slow discovery.

Sharing a common lagoon with Raiatean and accessible only by boat, Taha'a produces about 80% of all vanilla in French Polynesia. Taha'a is the only island in the Society Islands that can be completely circled by boat inside the protected lagoon. With its many deep bays and small deserted motus on the reef, Taha'a is an ideal island to escape the 20th century. Here you can explore the reef and discover the beauty of its multicolored lagoon, enjoy a picnic on a deserted motu or go hiking in the mountains and through the vanilla plantations and learn the mystery of these "orchids". With only a handful of guest houses and small hotels, Taha'a is slowly awakening to tourism and yet it still maintains an authentic flavor of Polynesia.
