Start your day with a delightful breakfast before embarking on an extraordinary adventure alongside your guide. Together, you will visit the temples of Luxor and Karnak, dedicated to the gods Amun and Ra, who represent creation, the sky, and the sun. These grandiose temples exude an aura of majesty. As you stroll amidst the line of sphinxes connecting the two temples, you will uncover captivating stories and anecdotes about the pharaohs who played a pivotal role in their construction.

Next, you will cross the Nile to explore the Necropolis of Thebes, a significant symbol of this ancient civilization. Within this complex lies an archaeological treasure that ranks among Egypt’s greatest marvels: the Valley of the Kings. This sacred burial ground houses 62 pharaonic tombs, including the resting places of Tutankhamun, Ramses IV, and many others.

Day 8 Edfu, Kom Ombo & Aswan
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Edfu, Kom Ombo & Aswan

Start your day in Edfu with a memorable experience of witnessing one of Egypt’s most beautiful sunrises. After indulging in a delicious breakfast onboard, prepare to embark on an enchanting carriage ride to the Temple of Horus.

This remarkable sanctuary holds the distinction of being the best-preserved Egyptian temple, having been concealed beneath the sand for centuries until its discovery by French archaeologist Auguste Mariette in the mid-19th century.

Following your visit to the Temple of Horus, return to the motor ship for a delectable lunch as you set sail towards Kom Ombo. Here, an exciting excursion awaits you at the temple dedicated to Haroeris, the falcon god, and Sobek, the crocodile god.

Day 9 Aswan, The Egyptian Paradise
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Aswan, The Egyptian Paradise

Enjoy a leisurely breakfast and a relaxing morning to rejuvenate. If you’re interested, we highly recommend considering an optional visit to the temples of Abu Simbel in Nubia, located in southern Egypt on the shores of Lake Nasser.

These remarkable temples form part of the Nubia and Aswan Open-Air Museum and have been meticulously relocated piece by piece due to the rising waters of the Nile River caused by the construction of the Aswan Dam. Commissioned by Ramses II, the rock-cut temples were constructed over 20 years to commemorate the Battle of Kadesh, paying homage to the great deities while also honoring Ramses himself.

Also, the main highlight of the complex is the temple of Ramses II, featuring four awe-inspiring statues on its façade that exude the majesty of Ancient Egypt. Additionally, you will find the temple dedicated to Nefertari, the esteemed wife of the pharaoh, in Abu Simbel.

In the afternoon, following a delectable lunch onboard, we suggest considering an optional felucca ride, an authentic Egyptian wooden boat, allowing you to intimately admire the scenic beauty of the Nile.

Along this journey, you will encounter Elephantine Island, once a thriving center for the ivory trade, as well as Kitchener Island, renowned for its exquisite botanical garden and panoramic view of the Agha Khan Mausoleum. A single glance at this sight will help you comprehend why it was chosen as the eternal resting place for Supreme Chief Ismaelita.

Next, you will embark on a visit to Aswan Dam, an impressive feat of hydraulic engineering initiated by the British Empire and completed by the Egyptians in the mid-20th century. Designed to regulate the flooding of the Nile River, this monumental structure stands as a testament to human ingenuity.

Following the visit, you will proceed to the inaccessible island of Philae, where you will have the opportunity to witness the temple dedicated to the goddess Isis. Like the temples of Abu Simbel and other sites across Egypt, the Philae temple complex had to be relocated from its original location to protect it from the Nile’s rising waters.

After a day filled with exploration, return to the motor ship and enjoy a restful overnight stay onboard in Aswan.
Day 10 Aswan & Cairo
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Aswan & Cairo

After a delicious breakfast on board, you will disembark and at the established time, you will transfer to the Aswan airport to take a domestic flight to Cairo.
