5-Day Egypt & Nile Cruise Package — Cairo, Luxor & Aswan

Prezentare generală

Five days that thread together the two halves of ancient Egypt: the monuments of Cairo and the temple-lined banks of the Nile between Luxor and Aswan. You begin on the Giza Plateau beneath the Great Pyramid of Khufu and the Sphinx, then step into the Grand Egyptian Museum before wandering the medieval lanes of Old Cairo and the stalls of Khan el-Khalili. A short domestic flight carries you south, where a cruise ship becomes your floating hotel. Sailing between Aswan and Luxor you moor at the island temple of Philae, the great High Dam, the twin sanctuary of Sobek and Horus at Kom Ombo and the towering falcon temple of Edfu, drifting through the Esna lock along the way. In Luxor the route opens onto Karnak's forest of columns and Luxor Temple beside the river, then crosses to the West Bank for the royal tombs of the Valley of the Kings, the terraces of Hatshepsut's temple and the seated Colossi of Memnon. Full board on the boat, an Egyptologist guide throughout and all internal flights and transfers mean the logistics are handled — you simply move from one landmark to the next. It is the classic Egypt circuit, unhurried and comprehensive, in a single package.
