Nile Cruise from Luxor to Aswan

Set out on a cruise to discover the magnificent Nile, the world’s longest river that has given life to historic civilizations and their extraordinary monuments, over centuries. Setting out from Luxor aboard a riverboat, sail upstream to Aswan while you watch the changing colors on the river and the sight of magical landmarks on its banks and beyond. On the west bank, facing Luxor, several monuments of note dot the Valley of the Kings and the Valley of the Queens. Closer to Aswan, riverine islands, and the UNESCO-listed Philae Temple make for picturesque sights. Watch fishermen cast their nets, and catch sight of the Egyptian and Glossy Ibis, plovers, snipes, and egrets along the river bank. These waters are also home to an ancient species – the mighty Nile crocodile!
