Cairo & Nile Cruise

10 Days / 9 Nights
100% Private
Cairo → Luxor → Aswan

The Quintessential Egypt Journey

This 10-day journey captures the very essence of Egypt. Begin in Cairo with its pyramid-studded horizon, golden museum halls, and medieval medinas. Then fly south to Luxor — the world's greatest open-air museum — where you board your private five-star cruise ship for a journey through the heart of ancient Egypt.

Drifting past lush riverbanks as the desert stretches to the horizon, you visit Edfu, Kom Ombo, and Aswan's Philae Temple, culminating in a dramatic day trip to the colossal Abu Simbel. Every day is structured but flexible — your guide adjusts the pace to suit you, and every tour is conducted exclusively for your group.
