The cruise offers breathtaking views of the river and its banks, giving guests a unique perspective on the country’s history and culture.

The temple is dedicated to the god Amun-Ra and contains a vast array of temples, chapels, and other structures dating back over 4,000 years. Guests will also visit the Luxor Temple, which was built by Amenhotep III and added to by Tutankhamun, Ramses II, and Alexander the Great.
On the second day of the Nile cruise program, guests will visit the West Bank of Luxor, including the Valley of the Kings, where many of the pharaohs of the New Kingdom were buried. The valley contains over 60 tombs, including that of Tutankhamun, which was discovered by Howard Carter in 1922. Guests will also visit the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, one of the most impressive temples in Egypt, and the Colossi of Memnon, two massive stone statues of the Pharaoh Amenhotep III.
The third day of the Nile cruise program includes a visit to the Temple of Kom Ombo, which is dedicated to the crocodile-headed god Sobek and the falcon-headed god Haroeris.
