Detailed itinerary of the Nile Cruise from Cairo for 4 Days to Luxor and Aswan

Day 1: Take a flight from Cairo to Aswan and see the city’s attractions: To begin your Luxor & Aswan Nile cruise from Cairo by seeing Aswan tourist sites like these, we will take you in the morning from your Cairo hotel to the Cairo airport, where you will board your aircraft to Aswan.

High Dam at Aswan

In Aswan, workers constructed a bridge across the Nile, and between 1960 and 1970, they built the High Dam, significantly impacting Egypt’s economy and culture.

The Unfinished Obelisk

The most well-known ancient obelisk is the Lateran Obelisk, originally located in Karnak, which was later moved to the Lateran Palace in Rome. Queen Hatshepsut commissioned it around 1508–1458 BC, likely as a tribute.

Move on to lunch and then see your visitor:

Temple of Philae

The goddess Isis of Love and Beauty is the subject of the Philae Temple. As part of the UNESCO Nubia Campaign initiative, they disassembled the temple complex and moved it to Agilkia Island to safeguard it and other sites before completing the Aswan High Dam in 1970.

Then check in for the 5* Nile Cruise and stay the night.

Day 2: Visit the Kom Ombo Temple: As your Nile Cruise makes its way near Kom Ombo in the afternoon, you may rest and have your breakfast there before joining your tour guide to explore the following places:

Temple of Kom Ombo

Temple in Kom Ombo with a view of the Nile. This temple is split into two separate temples, each having its entrance, hypostyle Hall, and sanctuaries.

After that, continue on your Nile cruise from Cairo to Edfu and spend the night there.

Day 3: Examine the Edfu Temple: Following a delicious breakfast, you will go with your excellent Egyptologist tour guide to see:

Temple of Edfu

Honoring the god Horus. The Edfu Temple is the most well-preserved Greco-Roman structure in all of Egypt, and a “Play” depicting Horus’ victory over the malevolent deity Seth is painted on its walls.

Sailing forward to Luxor during the night.

Day 4: Visit the Landmarks of Luxor: After breakfast, check off of the cruise and go to Luxor’s tourist spots with your tour guide:

The Kings’ Valley

The Valley of the Kings contains the graves of Egypt’s kings from the 18th to the 20th dynasties, including the great pharaoh, King Ramses II and the young pharaoh, King Tutankhamun.

Temple of Hatshepsut

Queen Hatshepsut, the monarch who assumed the role of a man, was adored by her subjects but was surrounded by controversies at all times. See one of the best-preserved examples of her magnificent temple on the West Bank of Luxor.

Memnon’s Colossi

Only two enormous stone sculptures of King Amenhotep III survive in a funerary temple that was once wholly constructed. The sculptures are built from quartzite sandstone stones that were initially found in Cairo and transported 700 km to Luxor.

After enjoying a midday meal at an Asian restaurant, you will continue the remainder of your trip in the following directions:

Temple of Karnak

The Karnak temple is the most spectacular landmark in Egypt. It is the biggest temple complex ever constructed by humans and marks the culmination of the labors of numerous pharaohs and generations of ancient builders. On a 247-acre plot of ground, the Temple of Karnak consists of three major temples, many smaller walled temples, and several peripheral temples.

Finally, we’ll take you straight to Luxor airport so you can catch your direct flight to Cairo. After that, we’ll take you back to your hotel so your Luxor & Aswan Nile cruise from Cairo will come to an end.

AMAZING TOUR, SOLO TRAVELER.

October 12, 2024

I am a California woman who traveled to Egypt alone and thanks to Egypt Fun Tours I had a great time. Hani, Mohammed, Kamal and David (my driver) were very professional and very knowledgeable, I appreciate how respectful they were and how protective they were with me.

They show me everything I wanted to see in Cairo and nearby places like Saqqara, Memphis, etc. Thanks to them I had a great time in Egypt, they were so so helpful than on my second day they helped me to move from my hotel in Giza to the Steigenberger hotel in downtown Cairo.

The tour price is super good includes a guide (expert in the field) a driver, lunch and drinks, they took me to amazing places for lunch, the food was super super delicious, for a foodie like me that was a highlight. We went out fo the tourist traps and I got to see the Cairo that if you are in a bus tour you will never get to see.

This tour is personalized for each person depending of what you want to see and do, I absolutely love it.

I used WhatsApp to communicate with Hani and arranged all my tours, Hani was super super nice since the moment I contacted him and explained him what I wanted to do and see.

Hani and his group mesmerized me with the tours they put together, this is a memory I will keep for lifetime.

I had only good things to say about them and I highly recommend them.

I did visit the pyramids in Giza, downtown Cairo, new Cairo, several museums, Coptic Cairo and Muslim Cairo with them and I learned a lot from them, I felt like they were family to me and it was EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT.

If I go back to Egypt I will hire them again without hesitation.

David I take my hat off for you because I have NO IDEA how you can drive in crazy Cairo, thanks to all of you for making this lady’s dream a reality.

My Dream Came True

October 12, 2024

I had waited 60 years to get to Egypt, in fact it was my 60th birthday gift to myself. I went with my oldest daughter and the experience was excellent. It was meticulously planned by the tour company and was designed for me and my daughter. I never had a minute where I was concerned. We were met by a tour rep at the airport and every step of the way. The guides were beyond expectations. Mydo the best tour guide of Egypt was excellent and very knowledgeable. Tarek our guide for the south, was equally as knowledgeable. I can’t say enough about both. Hani the tour director is the greatest, personable and so very helpful and truly cares that you have the best experience of your life. It was a dream come true. All the holidays we stayed at were 5 star in my opinion. I don’t have a bad word to say about this tour company. My daughter and I were treated exceptionally well by all and by all in Egypt

Islamic cairo and khan el khalili- great tour

September 28, 2024

Wonderful tour with the guide Hamada. I did not feel rushed at all, he explained a lot of facts about the city, the mosque , the water storage room, and also brought me to no hassle shops. He picked a great place to eat and have Turkish coffee and a cold lemon mint drink. We took a took took when we got tired from walking. He also happens to be a great photographer and helped take beautiful pictures. Overall a wonderful tour and great experience.
