A Nile cruise is one of the most fascinating and memorable ways to experience Egypt, combining a rich sightseeing programme with the comfort of travelling along the Nile aboard a five-star cruise ship sailing between Luxor and Aswan.
In a single journey, we visit some of the most iconic monuments of ancient Egypt, all located along the banks of the Nile.
Luxor - home to Karnak, the largest temple complex in Egypt, the Valley of the Kings and its magnificent royal tombs, the temple of the legendary Queen Hatshepsut, and the Colossi of Memnon
Edfu - the Temple of Horus, one of the best-preserved temples in Egypt, dedicated to the god who was regarded as the divine embodiment of kingship and whose presence was believed to live through every pharaoh.
Kom Ombo - a unique double temple, remarkable for being dedicated to two divine triads at once
Aswan reveals an entirely different Egypt - more southern, serene and deeply infused with Nubian character
Here lies one of the true jewels of our journey: the Temple of the goddess Isis on the island of Philae
While in Aswan, we can also arrange a leisurely sail around the islands of the Nile aboard a traditional felucca, carried by the wind beneath its white sails
A unique program in Aswan - The Nile Symphony
For those wishing to travel even further south, the journey can be extended to Abu Simbel, where two monumental rock-cut temples of Ramesses II and Queen Nefertari rise above the shores of Lake Nasser.
This is one of those extraordinary places in Egypt whose true scale and power simply cannot be captured in photographs
A private nighttime visit to the temples of Abu Simbel can also be arranged
A Nile cruise offers a rare opportunity to bring together ancient history, the beauty of Egypt’s landscapes and genuine relaxation in a single journey
There is no need to pack your bags every day or move from one city to another: your five-star hotel travels with you along the Nile, and every morning a new Egypt unfolds beyond your window
All sightseeing programmes in each destination are arranged privately and tailored to your interests and wishes, together with my personal recommendations.
