4-Night Nile Cruise from Luxor to Aswan

Four nights is five days: you board on day one and disembark on day five, with visits to Luxor, Edfu, Kom Ombo and Aswan along the way.

Three or four nights cover the main temples between Luxor and Aswan. Seven nights suits a slower pace with more time at each stop.

The price depends on the ship class, the number of nights and the travel date. The table on this page shows the starting rate for each class. Send us your dates for an exact quote.

You see the same temples either way. Aswan to Luxor sails north and ends beside Karnak. Luxor to Aswan sails south and ends in Aswan, a convenient base for Abu Simbel.

Luxury ships are the finest five-star vessels on the river. Deluxe ships are elegant five-star ships with excellent service. Dahabiyas are traditional sailing boats with a handful of cabins, mooring at quiet islands where large ships cannot stop.

Every sailing includes a private Egyptologist, guided visits to each temple and transfers from the airport to the ship. Each ship page lists its full inclusions.

October to April is the most comfortable, with warm days and cool evenings. Summer is very hot on the river.
