Nile cruise Luxor&Aswan( Every Thursday)

If YOU have had the Red Sea coast or the hustle and bustle of massive Cairo. And do you dream of a cruise on the Nile?

That is certainly possible as well. You can book the cruise no matter where you are in Cairo, Hurghada, Marsa-Alem or in Luxor.

Nile cruise

The Nile River, the lifeline of ancient Egypt. has long been a source of fascination for travelers. who wish to discover the secrets of this historic civilization.

A Nile cruise offers a unique opportunity to immerse yourself .in the rich history and culture. of Egypt while enjoying the comfort and luxury of a floating hotel.

Boarding a Nile cruise is like stepping back in time.

while sailing along the same route that pharaohs and traders once traveled thousands of years ago.

The journey usually begins in Luxor, known in ancient times as “Thebes.”

where you can explore the Valley of the Kings and Queens.

This vast necropolis houses the tombs of famous pharaohs such as Tutankhamun and Ramses II. decorated with intricate hieroglyphics and stunning works of art.

As your cruise ship glides along the river. you have plenty of opportunities to visit iconic temples, such as the Karnak Temple Complex and the Luxor Temple.

Karnak is one of the largest temple complexes in the world.with towering columns, huge statues and an avenue of sphinxes.

The Luxor Temple, located in the heart of the modern city of Luxor.is equally impressive with its grand entrance and well-preserved statues.

*Should you book for a special boat and it is not possible for us to book it. Then Egypt 4 All Travel reserves the right to book another boat of the same quality.

The left side is dedicated to Sobek the great crocodile god. The right side is dedicated to Horus Horachty, or Horus the Elder. Horus had to balance things against the god Sobek.
