The time spent aboard a vessel clad in meticulous design redefines luxury Nile River cruises. Richly upholstered interiors of these ships are an embodiment of fine furnishings, and curated art pieces leaven opulence. While the vessel glides along the tranquil waters of the Nile, guests have breathtaking views of Egypt’s lush landscape, creating an intimate connection with nature.
The many high-class cruises along the Nile River come with a range of upscale suites. In addition, each suite is a luxurious oasis featuring plush bedding, expansive balconies or panoramic windows with stunning views, and marble-accented private bathrooms.
Special itineraries in the Nile cruises introduce their clients to most of the iconic destinations in Egypt. Cruising upstream either from Luxor to Aswan or vice versa, passengers will witness some amazing ancient blasts. Observe the magnificence at the Valley of Kings, with hidden tombs of pharaohs in towering cliffs. Experience amazement at the Temples of Karnak, Edfu, and Philae, each showcasing Egypt’s awesome architectural mastery.
Travelers will visit Elephantine Island and the Nubian Village, among others. Moreover, people value these locations for their strong cultural experiences and connection with hinterland communities. The serenity and beauty of these destinations contrast beautifully with the Nile, enhancing the awe-inspiring experience.
Onboard lectures by Egyptologists provide captivating insights into ancient civilizations. Therefore, they bring hieroglyphics to life.

My husband and I had a ten-hour layover in Cairo and luckily found Egypt Fun Tours while researching tour companies online. The owner, Hamada, picked us up from the airport and brought us around Cairo. He took us to see the pyramids, which was a memory I will never forget.

Our long drive from Cairo turned into a terrifying flight through Alexandria’s impossibly crowded streets. Our minivan miraculously avoided hitting pedestrians, donkey carts, and old Lada cars.
