Your knowledgeable tour guide will be ready and waiting at your hotel, eager to accompany you on an adventure through history. Step into your comfortable air-conditioned vehicle for your first stop.

Egyptian Museum
Prepare to be amazed by the vast collection of artifacts, original statues, and priceless ancient Egyptian art housed within this world-renowned museum. The exhibition dedicated to King Tutankhamun is of particular significance, showcasing the golden treasures discovered in his tomb in 1922, part of a collection spanning more than 100,000 ancient artifacts.

Giza Pyramids
Next, you’ll visit this iconic plateau, home to a true wonder of the ancient world. Marvel at the grandeur of the Pyramids of Giza, capture panoramic views, and take advantage of numerous photo opportunities across the site.

Great Sphinx
Encounter this legendary guardian, carved from a single block of limestone, with the body of a lion and the face of a king. It has watched over the plateau for thousands of years and remains one of the most iconic and photographed monuments on earth.

Valley Temple
Explore this mystical ancient temple, built with massive granite pillars and remarkably well preserved. Its cool, cavernous interior offers a rare sense of how these sacred spaces looked and felt in antiquity.

Once the tour concludes, you’ll be comfortably transferred back to your hotel.

After breakfast, your guide will be waiting at your Cairo hotel. You’ll then be transferred to the airport for your flight to Aswan. Upon arrival at Aswan Airport, your dedicated tour guide will welcome you and escort you to your private air-conditioned vehicle, ready to kickstart your tour.

Aswan High Dam
Your first stop is this remarkable modern engineering masterpiece, built to tame the mighty Nile and control the river’s seasonal flooding while generating a significant share of Egypt’s electricity. Its creation gave rise to Lake Nasser, and from the dam’s crest you’ll take in breathtaking views across one of the largest artificial lakes in the world.

Temple of Philae
Following that, visit this marvelously preserved temple, dedicated to the goddess Isis and celebrated for its graceful colonnades and richly carved reliefs set amid the beauty of the Nile’s rocky islands. The temple’s remarkable rescue story is part of its appeal, meticulously relocated stone by stone from its original location to save it from rising waters.

Unfinished Obelisk
Then shift to see this enormous monument, roughly 42 meters (137 to 138 feet) long and weighing an estimated 1,168 to 1,200 tons. Abandoned mid-carving after cracks appeared in the granite, it remains in place exactly as it was found, offering a fascinating firsthand look at the tools and techniques ancient Egyptian workers used to carve and extract massive stone monuments.

Once the tour concludes, you’ll be escorted to your comfortable cruise ship, where you’ll spend the night.

Day 4: Nile Cruise - Abu Simbel - Kom Ombo

Depart early morning with a breakfast box for Abu Simbel, Egypt’s iconic archaeological site.

Great Temple of Ramses II
Marvel at this monumental temple, built between 1297 and 1213 BC and fronted by four colossal seated statues of the pharaoh. Dedicated to the gods Amun-Ra, Ra-Horakhty, and Ptah, alongside the deified Ramses II himself, the temple is famous for its astronomical alignment, which creates a spectacular phenomenon twice yearly, on February 22 and October 22, when sunlight penetrates deep into the mountain to illuminate the inner sanctuary.

Temple of Nefertari
Visit this elegant, smaller temple dedicated to Queen Nefertari and the goddess Hathor, standing beside the Great Temple. Its facade and interior showcase beautiful columns crowned with Hathor’s sistrum emblem, along with graceful reliefs honoring the queen, a rare tribute in ancient Egypt to a royal consort on such a grand scale.

Join your guide as the cruise sails toward Kom Ombo.

Kom Ombo
Explore this unique dual temple, honoring Sobek, the crocodile god of fertility, and Haroeris, a form of the falcon god Horus. Its rare symmetrical design combines two complete cult temples side by side, each with its own gateways, halls, and chapels, mirrored perfectly along a central axis.

In the evening, enjoy a lively galabiya party, immersing yourself in local culture as the cruise continues toward Edfu.

Overnight on Cruise.
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner

Day 5: Edfu - Luxor Temple

After morning breakfast aboard, arrive at Edfu with your guide to begin your day’s exploration.

Edfu Temple
Explore this remarkably preserved temple, dedicated to Horus, the hawk-headed sky god, and ranked among Egypt’s best-preserved ancient monuments. Construction began in 237 BC under Ptolemy III Evergetes and was completed nearly two centuries later during the reign of Cleopatra VII. Later settlements buried it beneath sand and debris for centuries, preserving its stunning reliefs and hieroglyphic inscriptions in exceptional condition. Explore the temple’s detailed walls depicting the legendary myth of Horus and Seth, once performed annually as a sacred religious drama, alongside fascinating accounts of ritual foundation ceremonies and ancient Egyptian religious practices.

After your temple tour, return to your Nile cruise for a relaxing afternoon and lunch while sailing toward Luxor.

Luxor Temple
Visit this magnificent temple, built by King Amenhotep III and later enhanced by Ramses II. Dedicated to the Theban Triad of Amun, Mut, and Khonsu, the temple remains above all a monument to the concept of kingship itself, with an impressive open courtyard and colossal statues guarding its entrance.

Overnight on Cruise.
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner

Day 6: Nile Cruise – Luxor Tour

As the sun rises, you will disembark your cruise ship as your tour guide meets you, ready to accompany you to your private air-conditioned vehicle. Your exploration begins on Luxor’s West Bank.

Valley of the Kings
Begin at the royal burial site of 18th Dynasty pharaohs, hidden away in a remote desert valley to protect their tombs from robbers. Explore intricately designed tombs including those of Ramses III, Ramses IV, Ramses VI, and Amenhotep II, featuring stunning carvings drawn from ancient funerary texts, guiding the pharaoh’s journey through the afterlife.

Temple of Queen Hatshepsut
Next, visit this extraordinary temple, uniquely carved into mountainside cliffs across three grand terraced levels. Admire vivid painted scenes depicting the trading expedition to the Land of Punt, one of the most celebrated achievements of Hatshepsut’s reign as one of Egypt’s few female pharaohs.

Colossi of Memnon
Conclude at these two massive statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III, towering nearly 20 meters tall and weighing approximately 700 tons each. Gazing eastward across the Nile floodplain, they once guarded the entrance to a vast mortuary temple that has long since vanished.

Break for lunch.

Karnak Temple
Visit this vast complex dedicated to the god Amun-Ra, spanning approximately 60 hectares and ranking among the world’s largest religious structures. Built and expanded over nearly 2,000 years, it reflects the full sweep of Egyptian civilization and remains one of the most awe-inspiring sites in the country.
