Nile Cruise
Luxor -Aswan
From the earliest times to present, people in Egypt have always lived along the River Nile. Many of the magnificent ancient monuments are scattered along the Nile in the Nile Delta.
A Nile Cruise is a very pleasant and relaxing way to visit the attractions of antiquity, while getting a glimpse of rural Egypt .
The floating hotel as the Nile Cruiser is called, offers all the amenities a land-based hotel offers like lounges, restaurants, bars, swimming pool, discotheque and shops. The air-conditioned rooms are of course smaller but have air conditioning, TV and enough room for twin beds and private shower. Deluxe cruisers have spacious suites.
Sitting in airconditioned comfort or under the shade on the sun deck
near the swimming pool it is hard to feel at all that the ship is moving, if it wasn't for the life on the banks of the River Nile which was slowly passing by.
In the luxurious dining room, breakfast, consisting of omelets, croissants, and fruit juices is served. Lunch and dinner options are various delicacies and include fish, chicken, steak and many other different delicious choices. In the evenings various entertainment shows are offered.
During a Nile Cruise which either starts at Luxor and ends in Aswan or vice versa daily excursions lead to the main monuments along the way. The cruises have their own Egyptologists on board who wonderfully explain the awe-inspiring carvings, the ancient history and spike them up with interesting stories.
Of course the crew on board a cruise cares for your every whim and makes sure to make the Nile Cruise a memorable experience.
