Nebu Nile Cruise

7 Nights

Jaz Elite Senator Nile Cruise

Sail between Luxor and Aswan aboard the Jaz Elite Senator, visiting Karnak, Valley of the Kings, Philae, Edfu, and Kom Ombo. The vessel features all-suite accommodation and an evening folkloric show, with daytime deck space for river views and temple façades. Our Egyptologists lead guided visits, and tours are capped at eight guests to keep groups small and focused. Compared with many larger Nile boats, the Jaz Elite Senator offers only suite accommodation rather than mixed cabin types. We are a licensed Egyptian tour operator, and we coordinate on-the-ground logistics, so guests step off the gangway straight into scheduled visits and evening briefings with the guide.

MayFair Nile Cruise

The MayFair Nile Cruise sails the Nile between Luxor and Aswan, calling at Karnak, the Valley of the Kings on Luxor West Bank, Edfu, Kom Ombo, and Philae. Shore visits are scheduled to allow focused time at the major temples and tombs, with Egyptologists available to accompany archaeological sightseeing. Cabins and public spaces vary by vessel; we confirm exact cabin details at booking. Unlike day trips that require long drives back each evening, a multi-night cruise keeps you close to the sites and reduces repeated land transfers. We are a licensed Egyptian tour operator, and we arrange transfers, Egyptologists, and your cruise booking aboard the MayFair.

Miriam Nile Cruise

You board MS Miriam at the Luxor Corniche pier mid-afternoon and settle into a compact river cabin before the first walk to Karnak. I meet you on the quay: I am the Egyptologist who guides this route and I take you straight to the temple avenues where the sound of sandals on sandstone and the smell of date-syrup stalls still set the rhythm of the day. We start early on the West Bank at the Valley of the Kings – low light, few people, and panels that explain the painted ceilings up close. Back on board you watch the Nile change color as the vessel slips through the Esna lock; we moor overnight near Edfu so the temple visit gets two hours rather than a rushed stop. Day three gives you Kom Ombo’s double shrines and the Nile at dusk; on arrival in Aswan I show you Philae’s hypostyle hall and the High Dam’s concrete scale against the river. Cabins are compact (about 12 m²) – classic river scale, not ocean-liner. Full board includes three meals daily; breakfasts are early to match excursions. Practical notes: bring a hat for the tombs, wear closed shoes on uneven rock, and expect short walks and stairs at most sites. I walk every route with you, point out mason’s marks and later-period graffiti, and keep the timing tight so photography fits the light.
