While shorter 3-night and 4-night cruises cover the primary highlights, a 7-day Nile cruise delivers an immersive travel experience. Extra time on the river allows for a relaxed sailing pace, deeper excursions into historic sites, and dedicated leisure hours to enjoy your ship’s sun deck, pool, and fine dining.
Highlights included in a standard 7-night itinerary include:
The West Bank of Luxor: Explore the Valley of the Kings, the Temple of Hatshepsut, and the Colossi of Memnon.
The East Bank Temples: Walk through the massive column halls of Karnak Temple and illuminated Luxor Temple.
Nile-Side Temples: Stop directly at the Temple of Horus in Edfu and the unique dual temple of Kom Ombo.
Aswan’s Treasures: Visit the Island Temple of Philae, the Unfinished Obelisk, and the High Dam.
Optional Excursions: Easily incorporate an excursion to the breathtaking rock temples of Abu Simbel.
Modern Nile cruise ships offer full-board accommodation, combining guided sightseeing with premium onboard comfort. During your week on the Nile, you can expect:
Gourmet Full-Board Dining: Freshly prepared buffet breakfasts, lunches, and multi-course dinners featuring local Egyptian flavors and international cuisine.
Expert Egyptologist Guides: Daily excursions led by licensed guides who bring thousands of years of pharaonic history to life.
Seamless Transport: All transfers between the ship and historical sites are fully managed in air-conditioned comfort.
The ideal season for a Nile river cruise runs from October to April, when temperatures in Upper Egypt are pleasant for daytime temple tours. Peak holiday periods—including Christmas, New Year, and Easter—fill up months in advance, so early booking is highly recommended.

This week we had a great tour with Mohamed to the pyramids of Sakkara and Dahshur, as well as Memphis. He tailored the tour to our preferences, took a lot of time with us, and gave us detailed background information on everything. It was also great that he never tired
After a rocky start (the driver had been in an accident on his way to pick me up,) the company very quickly sent another driver/guide named Mohammed, who was a real pro. Thoroughly enjoyed my first day in Egypt!
Egypt Fun Tours was contracted by our travel agency, Lenka Travelers, to arrange and guide us through parts of Egypt and Jordon. They did a fabulous job. The hotels, restaurants, places we visited, and transportation were the best. Our guide in Egypt, Mohammad, was very knowledgeable, spoke perfect English, and
Hi Hamada! Sorry, we were so quick to say goodbye—my mom was fading 🙂 I just wanted to say thank you for THE MOST AMAZING trip… You thought of every detail, improvised, adapted, overcame every challenge, multitasked personalities, and did it all with grace, intelligence, and kindness. From the bottom
We believed that 6 days would not be enough time to see everything. It felt like we did a 12-day tour in just 6 days. Hamada did a fantastic job of showing us around his stunning country. Highly recommended.
Thank you Hamada for an incredible day! Thank you for the stories and the history, you are so knowledgeable and we didn’t feel rushed at all or like we missed out on things, will definitely be recommending this tour to everyone 🙂
My entire family enjoyed every day of our EGYPT 🇪🇬 vacation.. Our tour guide helped us set up the entire trip from beginning to end .. He helped us in every way .. Transportation, meals , shopping , museum , history , just everything .. and my kids love him
The Nile cruise, Luxor, and Aswan were amazing sites to see, especially when you have the best tour guide in Egypt. Hamada was absolutely fantastic, lots of information, and some of it not spoken by others. This guy was not only a simple tour guide for us, but he also
I had the opportunity to do a layover tour with Egypt Fun Tours this Friday, and it was amazing. I had a 10-hour layover tour in Cairo, and I was met by Mohamed on time at the airport. He picked me up in a clean, new, safe, and comfortable van.
Thank you Egypt Fun Tours for a most memorable trip. My husband and I and our 12 year old son, Ryan were on a 7Days-6Nights Cairo /Aswan/Luxor tour. Egypt Fun Tours was very flexible in the planning of the trip and in the payment of the deposit. We were concerned
