Nile Cruise Holidays

Are Nile cruises safe?

Nile River cruises between Aswan and Luxor are very safe, with protection provided by the Egyptian government. There is also a high level of security at all attractions along the route.

What is Egypt best known for?

Egypt is best known for its ancient pyramids, temples and tombs. The Giza Pyramids and the tomb of King Tutankhamun are among the most visited attractions in the world.

What is the best part of Egypt to visit?

If you arrive in the country via Cairo, visit the Giza Pyramids and the Egyptian Museum, then head to Luxor which is home to numerous ancient attractions, including King Tut’s tomb.

The best parts of Egypt are covered in a Nile cruise holiday package.

Do you see the pyramids on a Nile cruise?

No, nearly all Nile cruises sail between Aswan and Luxor, while the pyramids are on the outskirts of Cairo. Most people visit the pyramids before traveling to Aswan or Luxor for their cruise.

All our Nile cruise holidays include a visit to the Great Pyramids of Giza.

What to expect on a Nile cruise?

With most cruises, 4 to 6 hours per day is spent visiting ancient sites. The rest of the time is yours to enjoy as you wish. When the ship docks in the evenings you can also go ashore on your own.

How much to tip on Nile cruise?

Tip your Egyptologist guide about $5 to $10 per day, and tip another $5 to $10 per day for the ship’s crew. Tips for the crew are split and shared among the crew member at the end of the cruise.

Note! Tipping is NOT mandatory!
