Overview

See the beauty of Egypt’s Upper Nile Valley from the deck of a Nile cruise. As you travel between Luxor and Aswan, you will enjoy riverside scenery and pass pharaonic sites along the way. The cruise includes highlights of sightseeing in Luxor and Aswan, with visits to the temples of Kom Ombo and Edfu. Along the route you will also visit Abu Simbel, located 285 km south of Aswan, one of Egypt’s most impressive temple complexes. In Luxor you may take an exciting hot air balloon trip to see the Nile Valley from above. Evenings on board typically offer lively entertainment, from belly-dancing performances and a galabiya party to a Nubian show, disco and more. The cruise is full board, with check-in including lunch and check-out including breakfast, so meals are provided throughout your stay on the ship.
