Can you believe it? You are going for a Nile Cruise!

By Adam Smith


You have just planned out a short vacation with your family and aim to visit Egypt- a country that has had a lifelong relationship with history. A Nile cruise is what that gives you a chance to appreciate every interesting thing about Egypt all in one go. The following itineraries will hopefully make you come back to the land of pharaohs again and again.

Day 1

You fly out from your home and land at the city of Luxor. Luxor is exactly the point from where your cruise on the Nile will commence.

Day 2

This day will center all on your visit to the town of western Thebes. It is the place where all the pharaohs have found their final resting places in the Valley of Kings. The major attraction for you should be the tomb of Tutankhamun.

Day 3

This day you should find yourself visiting the charming city of Luxor. The main point of attraction for a tourist in Luxor is the many famous temples.

Day 4

While sailing on this day, you should be seeing the marvelous Edfu, home to a 2000 year old temple. Moving on, at noon you should progress towards Aswan where there is a huge dam and temples with statues of Horus and Sobek.

Day 5

You could use up the morning to embrace the island of Aswan. At noon, you could enjoy a boat ride on the Nile aboard the felucca, a traditional boat of Egypt, before biding the day an adieu.

Day 6

Use up the whole morning and afternoon enjoying the facilities onboard the cruise ship while viewing the scenery from Luxor to Edna.

After completing a whole week on the Nile cruise, it should be a surprise for you if you find yourself facing a raging desire to relive those days in Egypt again and again.
