Welcome to Aswan! Your tour begins as our representative meets you at Aswan Airport, ready to assist you with luggage and transfer you in a deluxe vehicle to your Nile cruise boat—your floating hotel for the next four days. After enjoying lunch onboard, your first excursion is to the remarkable Aswan High Dam, a modern marvel and a symbol of Egypt’s engineering achievement since its completion in 1971.

Next, experience a short felucca sail on the Nile before visiting the enchanting Temples of Philae, the ancient centre of the cult of Isis. Saved from submersion during the Aswan High Dam’s construction, UNESCO relocated these temples to nearby Agilika Island to preserve their legacy.

Lastly, you’ll visit the fascinating Unfinished Obelisk. This immense, 41-meter-long stone, estimated to weigh over 1,000 tons, provides insight into ancient stoneworking techniques and ambitions.

Enjoy dinner onboard as the Nile flows beneath you.

Overnight stay on the cruise in Aswan.

Start your day with breakfast onboard as the cruise sets sail early to Kom Ombo. Upon arrival, visit the magnificent Kom Ombo Temple, with its impressive columns rising above the Nile. This unique, dual temple is dedicated to the gods Sobek and Haroeris. After returning to the boat, continue sailing to Edfu.

Following lunch, you’ll disembark to explore the grand Edfu Temple. Its towering sandstone walls are adorned with hieroglyphics and intricate friezes inspired by earlier pharaonic art. After your visit, you’ll return to the boat to sail onward to Luxor, passing through Esna. Relax with afternoon tea on the sundeck as the scenery drifts by.

In the evening, enjoy a cocktail party followed by dinner. Afterwards, join us in the bar for a festive Galabeya Party.

Overnight on the cruise in Luxor.

After breakfast onboard, begin your exploration of Luxor’s historic West Bank. Start with the Valley of the Kings, the final resting place of pharaohs from the 18th to the 20th dynasties. These richly decorated tombs are a must-see, with vibrant wall paintings that tell tales of the ancient world.

Next, visit the Temple of Hatshepsut, an architectural marvel set against the cliffs of the desert hills. Here, Queen Hatshepsut portrayed herself with the traditional symbols of a male pharaoh, asserting her authority and legacy.

Conclude the West Bank tour with a stop at the towering Colossi of Memnon. These immense statues were once said to emit a melodic sound at sunrise, inspiring the legend that Memnon greeted his mother, Eos, each dawn.

After lunch, head to the East Bank to explore Karnak Temple, a sprawling complex built over centuries by successive pharaohs and a major centre of worship in the New Kingdom.

Finish your day with a visit to Luxor Temple, initially built by Amenhotep III and dedicated to the god Amun.

In the evening, enjoy a Belly Dance and Dervish show in the bar after dinner.
