Day One
Discover the Divine Legacy of Luxor
Your unforgettable 5-day Nile Cruise adventure begins in Luxor, where your expert tour guide will lead you through the awe-inspiring wonders of the East Bank.
Step into the grandest religious complex ever built, the magnificent Karnak Temple. For over 2,000 years, this sprawling 247-acre sanctuary was the beating heart of ancient Egyptian spirituality, dedicated to the Theban Triad (Amun-Ra, Mut, and Khonsu). Marvel at the towering Great Hypostyle Hall, a forest of 134 colossal columns, and explore the sacred precincts, shrines, and obelisks adorned with breathtaking hieroglyphs and tales of pharaohs. From the Middle Kingdom (2000 BC) to the Ptolemaic era (30 BC), Karnak stood as a testament to Egypt’s divine legacy.
After your temple exploration, you’ll check in to your luxurious Nile Cruise, where a delicious lunch awaits. Relax and soak in the serene views of the Nile before your next adventure.
As the sun begins to set, visit the enchanting Luxor Temple, a masterpiece built in 1400 BC as the southern sanctuary of Thebes. Connected to Karnak by the legendary Avenue of the Sphinxes, this temple was the stage for the grand Opet Festival, where pharaohs like Ramses the Great and Amenhotep III celebrated their divine kingship. Walk among its illuminated columns and statues, feeling the echoes of ancient rituals under the stars.
Return to your cruise for a delightful dinner, then unwind as you drift along the timeless Nile, preparing for another day of discovery.

Day Two
Discover the Hidden Tombs & Temples of Luxor’s West Bank
After enjoying breakfast aboard the Nile Cruise, the group will set off with a knowledgeable tour guide to discover the following breathtaking sites:
Nestled within a secluded valley lies the legendary Valley of the Kings, home to 63 magnificent tombs adorned with stunning artistic treasures. This sacred burial ground holds the remains of Egypt’s most powerful pharaohs from the 18th, 19th, and 20th dynasties (1570–1050 BC), including Tutankhamun, Seti I, Ramses the Great, Hatshepsut, and many more.
Rising majestically from the cliffs of Deir el-Bahari, the Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut is a masterpiece of ancient architecture. Built in the 15th century BC, this awe-inspiring monument honors both the god Amun and the legacy of Queen Hatshepsut (1508–1458 BC), one of Egypt’s most remarkable female rulers. Its terraced design and detailed reliefs make it a true wonder of the ancient world.
Standing guard at the entrance of Amenhotep III’s (1391–1353 BC) lost mortuary temple are the towering Colossi of Memnon. These twin statues, though damaged by an earthquake and later restored, remain a powerful testament to the pharaoh’s enduring legacy.
The group will return to the Nile Cruise for lunch and dinner, followed by a relaxing overnight stay on board.

Overnight: Onboard the Cruise
Day Three
Exploring the Twin Temples of Edfu & Kom Ombo on the Nile
After enjoying breakfast aboard the Nile Cruise, the group will set off with their tour guide to explore two of Egypt’s most magnificent temples:
Step into the grandeur of the Ptolemaic era at the Temple of Edfu, one of Egypt’s best-preserved ancient wonders. Built between 237 BC and 57 BC, this stunning temple embodies the legendary victory of Horus over the evil god Set, immortalized in its intricate carvings and towering columns.
Perched on the "Hill of Gold," the twin temples of Kom Ombo date back to 180–47 BC, dedicated to the crocodile god Sobek and the falcon-headed Haroeris. Marvel at its unique dual design, ancient surgical instruments, and fascinating calendar inscriptions, a glimpse into the advanced knowledge of the time.
After an enriching day of exploration, the group will return to the Nile Cruise for a delicious lunch and dinner, followed by a relaxing evening on the river.
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
Overnight: Onboard the Cruise
Day Four
A Trip Through Ancient Power and Sacred Myths
After breakfast onboard your Nile cruise, you’ll set out with your expert tour guide to explore the wonders of Aswan, including:
Built in the 1960s, this engineering marvel was designed to regulate the Nile’s annual floods and generate hydroelectric power. The High Dam created Lake Nasser, a vast reservoir that secures Egypt’s water supply and supports its agricultural future.
Carved directly from the bedrock, this massive Unfinished Obelisk was commissioned by Queen Hatshepsut and intended to stand 42 meters tall at the Karnak Temple. Abandoned due to a crack, it now offers a fascinating glimpse into ancient stone-working techniques, serving as an open-air museum of Pharaonic craftsmanship.
Philae Temple, dedicated to Isis, the goddess of motherhood and magic, this stunning temple dates back to the Ptolemaic era (6th century BC). Adorned with intricate carvings depicting the legend of Osiris, it stands as one of Egypt’s most beautifully preserved temples, relocated to Agilkia Island after the construction of the High Dam.
After a day of exploration, the group will return to the cruise for lunch and dinner, followed by a relaxing overnight stay on the Nile.
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
