5-Days Nile Cruise sails Luxor to Aswan &Abu Simbel. Air Balloon

Overview

Sail the Nile from Luxor to Aswan on a private cruise and follow the river as it passes lush banks, desert landscapes and ancient monuments. In Luxor, a private Egyptologist guide will accompany you on visits to both the East and West Banks, where you’ll see Karnak Temple, Luxor Temple, the Valley of the Kings and the Mortuary Temple of Queen Hatshepsut. Along the way you’ll learn about the history and significance of these sites from an expert guide. The cruise continues to Edfu to view the remarkably preserved Temple of Horus, and to Kom Ombo to explore the unusual twin temples dedicated to Sobek and Horus. In Aswan you’ll see the High Dam, visit the island-bound Philae Temple dedicated to Isis, and examine the Unfinished Obelisk at the ancient granite quarries. Time on board is for relaxing — you’ll enjoy comfortable accommodation, meals and panoramic views of the Nile Valley as the scenery unfolds. Optional activities may include a hot-air balloon ride and an excursion to Abu Simbel.
