On arrival in Aswan, one of our tour representatives and a driver will meet you at the airport or railway station, and then they will take you to board the beautifully appointed MS Salacia Nile cruise ship.

Shortly after you have been checked in, you will be served your first on-board lunch, and then a little bit later in the afternoon, one of our Expert tour guides will escort you and a small group of our other clients on a tour to see 3 very popular Aswan tourist attractions.

First you will visit the Aswan High Dam and Lake Nasser. Next, you will head to the ancient granite quarries to see the massive Unfinished Obelisk, and from there you will be taken to see the ancient Temple of Philae.

Following your tour, you will return to the ship and you will have the rest of the day to yourself. Enjoy the first night of your MS Salacia Nile cruise in your cabin on the water at Aswan.

Meals Included: Lunch and Dinner

Begin your day with a good breakfast aboard the ship, and then spend the rest of the morning as you wish. At around midday your MS Salacia Nile Cruise will depart from Aswan and it will sail to Kom Ombo where your guide will escort you on another onshore excursion. This time, you will visit the fascinating Temple of Kom Ombo which is essentially two identical temples in one.

Following your tour of the temple, you will then head back to the boat and you will have the remainder of the day to yourself to enjoy as you wish while the cruise makes its way to Edfu. Enjoy this night of your MS Salacia Nile Cruise in your cabin on the water at Edfu.

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner

Shortly after breakfast today, your guide will take you and the other members of your group to see Edfu Temple. Also known as the Temple of Horus, it is the most well-preserved ancient Egyptian temple ever discovered thanks to the fact that it was buried beneath the desert sand for more than 2,000 years.

After exploring the Temple, you will return to the cruise ship and then it will sail to Luxor, with lunch being served along the way. There are no further excursions scheduled for today so you will have the entire afternoon to yourself at leisure. There will also be an authentic Egyptian Belly Dance Show in the evening after dinner. Enjoy another restful sleep on the water, this time at Luxor.

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner

Enjoy one last breakfast on the ship and then it will be time for you to check out and disembark, after which you will enjoy another two tours, one on the Luxor East Bank and one on the Luxor West Bank.

First, you will visit the East Bank to see two incredibly popular ancient Egyptian sites: Luxor Temple and the sprawling ruins of Karnak Temple which was constructed over a period of roughly 2,500 years.

Next, you will head to the West Bank you will visit Valley of the Kings, an ancient royal burial ground which is home to more than 60 rock-cut tombs, including the tomb of the boy king, Tutankhamun and pharaoh Ramses VI.
