The cruise sails the classic stretch from Luxor south to Aswan over four nights, with guided sightseeing in Luxor before departure, temple calls at Edfu and Kom Ombo en route, and Aswan’s highlights at the end.03Can I add Abu Simbel?

Yes — families cruise the Nile year-round and children are welcome on board. Child rates depend on age and cabin arrangement; tell us your family setup and we will price it for you.05Are tips included?
No — tipping is customary in Egypt but always at your discretion. Gratuities for the Egyptologist guide, driver, and cruise crew are not included in the price.06What should I pack and wear?
Light, breathable layers, comfortable walking shoes, a hat, and sunscreen. Modest clothing covering shoulders and knees is appreciated when visiting temples. Evenings on the river can be cool in winter, so bring a light jacket.

5 Days Nile Cruise from Luxor to Aswan
Sail the Nile from Luxor to Aswan, visiting Karnak, the Valley of the Kings, Edfu, Kom Ombo, and Philae. Mornings are reserved for guided archaeology at major sites, afternoons for relaxed cruising, and evenings for dinner aboard the Nefertari or time ashore in Aswan. We are a licensed Egyptian tour operator, and our Egyptologists meet you in Luxor and lead each scheduled visit. The itinerary concentrates on temple complexes and funerary monuments, giving substantive time at Edfu and Kom Ombo rather than brief port calls. Unlike some short, timetable-driven river cruises, this route balances focused onshore visits with calm stretches on the Nile, making the daily rhythm of site visits and cruising easier to manage.

Deluxe 4-Day Nile Cruise: Aswan To Luxor Adventure
Embark in Aswan aboard the Nefertari and sail north to Luxor, visiting Philae, Kom Ombo, Edfu, and Luxor's temple precincts. Our Egyptologists lead each shore visit, explaining temple inscriptions, Roman-era additions, and local ritual practice. We schedule Aswan visits early to avoid midday heat and the busiest boat traffic at Philae. Unlike many short packaged cruises that rush river stops, this itinerary allows unhurried time ashore at Kom Ombo and Edfu, so you can study reliefs and inscriptions without a fixed stopwatch. We are a licensed Egyptian tour operator, and our local team coordinates transfers, guides, and timing on the ground to reduce wait times at piers and monuments. Expect temple approaches on foot, short vehicle transfers from the dock, and quiet river time between visits.
