Overview

On a Nile cruise from Luxor to Aswan, you will sail the river and visit several of Egypt’s best‑known ancient sites. Along the way you will explore Karnak Temple and Luxor Temple, and you will enter the Valley of the Kings to view the royal tombs. You will also see Queen Hatshepsut’s Temple and experience the atmosphere of those riverside monuments as you move between ports. As the cruise continues, you will visit the temples at Edfu and Kom Ombo and observe their distinctive architecture. In Aswan you will visit the island sanctuary of Philae Temple. The itinerary focuses on these iconic landmarks, giving you time to walk among temples, take in inscriptions and reliefs, and appreciate the scale and history of the sites along the Nile.
