Itinerary

  1. Day 1 Luxor Sightseeing & Dahabiya Boarding

    Your Nuut or Nuun Dahabiya Nile Cruise begins in Luxor, where our representative will welcome you at the airport and help with your arrival. You will meet your Egyptologist guide and begin your day with a visit to Karnak Temple. This temple is known for its columns, ancient halls and rich history that spans thousands of years.

    Next, you will travel to Luxor’s West Bank to explore the Valley of the Kings. This is one of Egypt’s important archaeological sites. You will walk through the royal burial grounds, where more than 60 tombs have been found, including the famous tomb of Tutankhamun.

    After your sightseeing tour you will head to the Nile. Board your 5-star Nuut or Nuun Dahabiya. Settle into your cabin. Enjoy lunch as the boat sails toward Esna. Along the way the Dahabiya will anchor near El Hegz Island before the Esna Lock. You will have time to enjoy the quiet riverside setting and your first evening on board.

    Meals Included: Lunch and Dinner.  

  2. Day 2 El Kab and Edfu Temple Sightseeing

    Begin your morning by having breakfast aboard the Nuut or Nuun Dahabiya as the vessel glides toward El Kab an Egyptian town on the east side of the Nile. When the boat arrives meet your guide. Walk through the ruins of the ancient city. You will see walls, temple ruins and rock‑cut tombs that belong to the New Kingdom.

    After exploring get back aboard the Nuut or Nuun Dahabiya. Keep sailing toward Edfu. While the boat moves eat lunch. Look out at the calm Nile Valley. I hope the quiet scenery makes your lunch feel special.

    When you reach Edfu hop into a horse‑drawn carriage that takes you around the town to the Edfu temple also called the Temple of Horus. This temple is dedicated to the falcon god Horus. Is one of the best‑preserved temples in Egypt. I love how the stone still feels cool under the sun.

    After seeing the temple go back to the Nuut or Nuun Dahabiya. Sail toward Sheikh Rehan Island. Before the sun sets the boat will stop near Sheikh Rehan Island. You can then have an evening and sleep under the natural beauty of the Nile. I wish you a night surrounded by nature.

    Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner.   

  3. Day 3 Gebel El-Silsila Tour and Sailing to Kom Ombo

    After a start your Nuut or Nuun Dahabiya sails toward Gebel El Silsila, a key ancient sandstone quarry in Upper Egypt. With your guide you go ashore to explore the quarries where stone was taken to build many of Egypt’s temples. You also visit the Temple of Horemheb before climbing the nearby hill for views of the Nile and surrounding scenery.

    You return to your Dahabiya and continue sailing toward Kom Ombo. Before you reach the town the boat stops near Al Bashir Island, where you stay for the night. In the evening you enjoy a BBQ dinner, on the island before heading to your Dahabiya. 

    Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch and BBQ Dinner.  

  4. Day 4 Relaxing Dahabiya Sailing to Aswan

    Enjoy a relaxing day aboard your Nuut or Nuun Dahabiya Nile Cruise as the boat sails towards the West Bank of Aswan. No sightseeing excursions are scheduled today, giving you time to enjoy the journey at your own pace. Have your meals on board, take in the views of the Nile River, and watch daily life along its banks as the Dahabiya passes small villages, green fields, and quiet riverside landscapes. You can spend the day relaxing on the sun deck, enjoying the peaceful surroundings, or simply watching the scenery from your cabin. This leisurely sailing day offers a chance to unwind before the next sightseeing stops in Aswan.

    Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner. 

     

  5. Day 5 Philae Temple Tour and Sailing to Herdiab Island

    Start your Luxor Aswan Dahabiya Cruise with breakfast on board your boat before setting off to visit Philae Temple, one of the sights in Aswan. The temple sits on Agilkia Island. Honors the goddess Isis. It was carefully moved from its spot on Philae Island to keep it safe from rising waters caused by the Aswan High Dam.

    After touring the temple with your guide head back to your Nuut or Nuun Dahabiya. Enjoy a lunch as you sail toward Kom Ombo Temple. On the way the Dahabiya will stop near Herdiab Island, where you will spend the night in surroundings, along the Nile.

    Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner.  

  6. Day 6 Kom Ombo Temple Tour and Sailing to Edfu  

    Enjoy breakfast on board as your 8 Day Dahabiya Nile Cruise sails toward Kom Ombo. Lunch will be served during the journey. Once you arrive, step ashore with your guide to explore Kom Ombo Temple, one of Egypt’s distinctive ancient temples. The temple stands out for its double design. One section is dedicated to Sobek, the crocodile god and the other to Horus, the falcon-headed god.

    After learning about the temple’s history and taking in its beauty return to your Dahabiya. Continue sailing toward Edfu Temple. Upon docking in the town the boat will anchor at a peaceful spot along the Nile. Spend the evening relaxing on board. Enjoy a quiet night under the stars.

    Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner.  

     

  7. Day 7 Sailing from Edfu to Luxor

     Enjoy a day on your 7 Night Dahabiya Nile Cruise as you travel from Edfu to Luxor through the Esna Lock. There are no tours or visits planned today so you can take your time. Enjoy the view of the Nile and the calm environment on the boat. Watch the small villages, the green fields and the riverbanks go by as the Dahabiya moves north. Have breakfast, lunch and dinner on the boat while you make the most of your full day on the Nile. In the evening the Dahabiya will arrive in Luxor. Stop for the night. This is the evening of your 8 Day Dahabiya Cruise Egypt.

    Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner.

     

  8. Day 8 Dahabiya Disembarkation and Luxor Airport Transfer

    Enjoy your breakfast aboard your 8 Day Dahabiya Cruise Egypt before checking out and disembarking. After leaving the boat our representative will help you with your transfer to Luxor Airport for your departure flight via Cairo. This is your chance to say goodbye to the Nile and to reflect on the unforgettable sights you have seen during your Luxury Dahabiya Nile Cruise and back. Your journey ends with a transfer, to the airport bringing your Nuut or Nuun Dahabiya Nile Cruise Package to a peaceful close.

We had such an incredible tour with Mohamed. His knowledge at all the sites was invaluable and we learnt so much. If you plan to visit the pyramids you are wasting your time doing so without a tour guide like Mohamed. He and his driver always picked us up on time, he was informative (without overloading us with too much history or assuming any prior knowledge of Ancient Egypt). His local knowledge meant we always had a cold drink of bottled water and had some delicious lunches. Our tour also included a visit to the Citadel and Old Cairo (Coptic Cairo) and they were certainly a must do in your tour with Mohamed. I will definitely be recommending him to friends and family.

| Outstanding tour by Mohamed

We had such an incredible tour with Mohamed. His knowledge at all the sites was invaluable and we learnt so much. If you plan to visit the pyramids you are wasting your time doing so without a tour guide like Mohamed. He and his driver always picked us up on time, he was informative (without overloading us with too much history or assuming any prior knowledge of Ancient Egypt). His local knowledge meant we always had a cold drink of bottled water and had some delicious lunches. Our tour also included a visit to the Citadel and Old Cairo (Coptic Cairo) and they were certainly a must do in your tour with Mohamed. I will definitely be recommending him to friends and family.
