Itinerary

Arrive in Luxor, greeted by a local representative who will provide comfortable transfer to your deluxe Nile cruise ship. After settling in and enjoying lunch on board, begin your journey into Egypt’s past.

Step into the vast Karnak Temple Complex, where colossal columns, sacred precincts, and ancient sanctuaries reveal centuries of devotion. Marvel at the immense Hypostyle Hall and stroll through the Precinct of Amun-Re, admiring monumental obelisks and timeworn chapels. Continue to the elegant Luxor Temple, a masterpiece of pharaonic and Islamic heritage, constructed by Amenhotep III and Ramses II.

Return to your ship to relax with afternoon tea on the sun deck before savoring dinner in the elegant dining room. Your first night is spent docked in Luxor, surrounded by the river’s tranquil beauty.

Begin your day with breakfast aboard, then set off to uncover the mysteries of Luxor’s West Bank. Visit the Valley of the Kings, where pharaohs rest in elaborately painted tombs carved deep in the desert hills (three tombs included; Tutankhamun’s tomb available at extra charge).

Admire the architectural splendor of the Temple of Hatshepsut, rising dramatically from the cliffs. Pause at the Colossi of Memnon—two immense statues guarding the ancient necropolis.

Return to the vessel for lunch as it begins its passage toward Esna. Spend a restful afternoon on deck, enjoying scenes of rural Nile life and watching as the ship navigates the Esna Lock. Dinner and overnight on board as you journey onward.

After breakfast, travel by horse-drawn carriage to Edfu’s magnificent Temple of Horus, one of the most complete ancient temples in Egypt. Explore its grand façade, intricate reliefs, and sacred halls once reserved for priests and royalty.

Return to your floating hotel for lunch as the ship glides along the verdant banks of the Nile. In the afternoon, visit the unique double temple at Kom Ombo, dedicated to Sobek, the crocodile god, and Horus the Elder. Examine the temple’s fascinating carvings, including representations of ancient medical instruments, and stop by the nearby Crocodile Museum.

Continue sailing to Aswan as the day ends. Relish dinner on board and unwind in comfort as you approach Aswan.

Awake in Aswan and set out to visit the impressive High Dam, a feat of engineering that created Lake Nasser and transformed Egypt’s landscape. Board a motorboat to the idyllic Philae Temple, set on Agilkia Island and dedicated to the goddess Isis.

Next, explore the Unfinished Obelisk, still lying in the ancient granite quarry—an insight into the techniques of ancient Egyptian stone carvers.

Return for lunch on board. Spend your afternoon at leisure or opt for a peaceful felucca ride on the river. In the evening, enjoy dinner surrounded by the gentle ambiance of Nubian culture.
