Itinerary
Upon arrival in Aswan, the fantastic city famous for the Nubian culture, we will transfer you to your Nile Cruise in an A/C vehicle. After checking in, one of our Expert Egyptologists will pick you up from your hotel in Aswan in a modern air-conditioned vehicle for your viewing.
📍 The Incomplete Obelisk
The golden Unfinished Obelisk of Hatshepsut (1508-1458 BC), which is 42 m in height while resting in the bedrock, is the greatest wonder that never materialized. It was smashed before standing at the Karnak Temple, where it would have been the most enormous obelisk ever created.
📍 Temple of Philae
During the Ptolemaic era, people wrote the divine tale of Philea Temple in remembrance of the great sacrifice made by the motherly and heaving goddess Isis. The enormous walls of the Philae Temple depict the legendary tale of Osiris' wife, Isis, and her son Horus.
We will transport you to the Nile cruise, eat lunch and dinner, and spend the night.
Meals: Lunch - Dinner. | Overnight: Onboard the Nile Cruise.
You will start the day with an early morning breakfast before an expert Egyptologist takes you in a private air-conditioned car to see:
📍 Abu Simbel Temple
Ozymandias Ramses the Great, who lived from 1292 to 1186 BC, constructed the massive Temple of Abu Simbel around 1200 BC. The temple celebrated his triumph in the momentous Battle of Kadesh, which led to the signing of Egypt's first peace treaty. Ramesses II built the structure to honor his wife, Queen Nefertari, who was highly esteemed by Hathor.
To sail, we will transport you back to your Nile cruise, where lunch and dinner will be served. Appreciate all the surrounding natural scenery as you travel.
Meals: Breakfast - Lunch - Dinner. | Overnight: Onboard the Nile Cruise.
After breakfast, you will head to discover more of Egypt's history in Kom Ombo and Edfu temples.
📍 Kom Ombo Temple
One temple constructed during the Ptolemaic era to worship the two gods of Sobel and Haroeris was the large and majestic double temples of Kom Ombo, which were completed in 205 BC and 180 BC, respectively. The unusual double temple will reveal the medical equipment used in prehistoric Egypt.
After that, you will return to your cruise ship for a delectable lunch meal as you head into Edfu. A horse-drawn carriage will meet you there and transport you to see:
📍 Temple of Edfu
The falcon sky deity Horus' epic headquarters is the magnificent and exceptionally well-preserved Edfu Temple, which was built on the sacred site of his victory. Visitors can see the temple from all sides of Edfu's great walls, built between 237 and 27 BC.
Return to the cruise ship, to sail to Luxor, arriving in Luxor late at night.
Meals: Breakfast - Lunch - Dinner. | Overnight: Onboard the Nile Cruise.
After the family has breakfast on board the cruise ship, the Egyptologist will take you in an air-conditioned vehicle to the sites on the east and west banks of Luxor.
📍 The Kings' Valley
The magnificent Valley of the Kings is a legendary structure built during the New Kingdom (1570–1070 BC). It is the sole part of the mythological hill in the Theban triangle and contains 63 tombs for Rameses II, Seti I, Amenhotep I, Hatshepsut, Tutankhamun, and many other notable individuals.
📍 Temple of Hatshepsut
A wonder of the ancient world, the magnificent and classical Hatshepsut temple preserves the legacy of Queen Hatshepsut (1508–1458 BC). Senenmut, Amun's central overseer of the Golden Works, created it in 1479 BC to celebrate both their significant accomplishments.
📍 Memnon's Colossi
The enchanted Colossi of Amenhotep III (1368–1350 BC) were built in 1350 BC and transported about 700 kilometers to stand at the city's entrance. The epic, mythical narrative has 107 Latin and Greek inscriptions from the Roman era that majestically detail his beliefs and accomplishments.
📍 Temple of Karnak
The celestial gods of the 18th dynasty, the urban triad of Mut, Khunso, and Amun, as well as many more, live in the mysterious Karnak temple complex.
