5 Days Nile Cruise to Luxor & Aswan from Port Ghalib

Have breakfast in the Egypt Nile River Cruise's elegant dining area. Your tour guide will pick you up so that you can start your Luxor day tours to the West Bank. When you visit the New Kingdom pharaohs' rock-carved tombs in the Valley of the Kings, one of the required visits on any trip to Egypt, you may learn more about mummification in ancient Egypt. Today, we will disembark the boat and visit two of Egypt's most well-known tourist destinations. If forced, we would list Ramses IV, Siptah, Thutmose III, and Ramses IX as our top four favorite tombs.

The Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, also known as El-Dier El Bahari and devoted to the sun deity Amun Re, will be our destination. In the Deir el-Bahari valley, the temple was sculpted from the steep limestone cliffs that tower above the desert.

You will be taken back to the cruise after this unforgettable excursion to Luxor, where you will enjoy lunch while the Movenpick Royal Lily Nile cruise ship travels to Esna to cross the Lock. Take in the amazing views of the beautiful Nile Valley while sipping tea on the cruise ship's upper deck. Your oriental meal will be provided on board following your arrival at EdfuTemople, where you will spend the night. Following that, you can take part in the musical performance and belly dance on the tranquil Nile waters.

As we set sail for Edfu in the early morning, your breakfast buffet will start on board your Nile cruise ship. Ride the horse-drawn carriage to the renowned Temple of Edfu, one of Egypt's most beautiful temples dating back to the Ptolemaic dynasty, which is one of the most well-known in the country. One of Egypt's biggest temples, the Temple of Edfu is dedicated to the god Horus. Once everyone is on board, the ship will leave towards Kom Ombo on the Nile. You'll leave for a spectacular excursion to the Kom Ombo temples, which were built as a tribute to two gods.

As soon as your tea is finished, get on board your Egypt Nile River Cruise and it will set sail towards Aswan. You can enjoy the evening meal and entertainment before spending another pleasant night sleeping by the Nile.

After breakfast on board one of the most highly recommended Egypt Nile Cruises, begin your Aswan day tours.

The Aswan High Dam:

Start by seeing the stunning Aswan High Dam, which was built between 1960 and 1970 and is one of the most major construction projects in modern Egyptian history.

The unfinished obelisk

The largest unfinished obelisk in Egypt is located in Aswan's granite quarries, where you will go after that. As the sole obelisk in Aswan and the largest in all of Ancient Egypt, it stands out as a special attraction in the city. Before being transferred back to your Nile Cruise, take as much time as you'd like to explore the historical sites. As you enjoy the breathtaking views of the Nile, the island ecosystems, and diverse migratory birds flying above the city, your lunch will be served on board. Let the splendor of these sights fill your eyes as you sip tea at the cafe.

The yacht has a luxurious spa where you can get a massage for the rest of the day or unwind in your cabin.

After enjoying a delicious meal on board in the evening, you will spend your final night in Aswan as part of the Egypt Nile River Cruise.

Tonight, as part of your Aswan excursions, you have the option of taking an additional visit to the Philae temple.

Once you've finished your last breakfast aboard the Nile Cruise, check out. Next, in a modern car, our tour guide will transport you to the Aswan airport or train station for your final departure.
