Overview

From the deck of a 5-star Nile cruise ship, you will enjoy the beautiful Nile Valley scenery and see everyday Egyptian life as you travel between Luxor and Aswan. Along the way you will explore the pharaonic sites that line the river, with time to visit Kom Ombo and the Edfu Temples. In Luxor you will experience a hot air balloon trip that offers a different perspective over the ancient landscape. You will also make a visit to the impressive temples of Abu Simbel, 285 km from Aswan, and learn about their history and significance. Evenings on board will feature a range of entertainment, including a belly dancing show, a galabiya party, a Nubian show or disco and more, giving you a taste of local music and performance as you relax after each day of sightseeing.
