MS Mayfair Christmas Nile Cruise Vacation

Today, we'll continue our exploration of Luxor's treasures, this time on the west bank of the Nile. After a hearty breakfast aboard the ship, we'll disembark to embark on the Luxor West Bank Tours. We'll begin with the renowned Valley of the Kings, home to the tombs of great Pharaohs like Seti I, Tutankhamun, and Thutmose III, where you'll also gain insight into the ancient Egyptian art of mummification. 

Next, we'll visit the Mortuary Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, dedicated to the god Amun-Ra, and one of the most fascinating sites to explore. Lastly, we'll marvel at the Colossi of Memnon, the towering statues that once stood guard over the mortuary temple of King Amenhotep III.

Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner.

We continue our Egypt luxury Tours on the MS Mayfair Nile Cruise with another day of unforgettable explorations. After an early morning breakfast, we'll visit the Temple of Edfu, dedicated to the falcon god Horus. This is one of Egypt's best-preserved temples and the second largest after Karnak, dating back to the Hellenistic period around 2,200 years ago.

We’ll then return to the cruise for lunch before heading out to the remarkable Temple of Kom Ombo, uniquely divided between two gods: Sobek, the crocodile god, and Horus, the falcon god. This temple’s unusual design adds to its beauty.

Afterward, we’ll continue sailing towards Aswan, where dinner will be served, and you can enjoy the evening's activities aboard the cruise.
