4 Days 3 Nights at 5 stars Cruise Luxor, Aswan and Abu Simble

Day 1

Arrive Luxor. Visit Luxor (East Bank), Nile Cruise

Meet our representative at Luxor on arrival and move to your Nile Cruise. Check in and be ready with a small group and guide to visit :

Karnak Temple is the second largest temple complex in the world. Enter through an avenue of ram-headed sphinxes, gaze up at the massive columns in the famous Hypostyle Hall, and visit the Karnak open air museum.

Luxor Temple looks and feels like a smaller version of Karnak Temple, although this temple served a different purpose than many found in and around Luxor. This temple is not dedicated to one particular god or pharaoh. Instead, it may have been where many of the kings of ancient Egypt were crowded.

Day 2

Luxor (West Bank) start Sailing

At the morning be ready to visit the West Bank:

Valley of Kings Is one of the most famous archaeological sites in the world. This is a royal burial ground, with exquisitely decorated tombs for the pharaohs who ruled Egypt between 1539 and 1075 BC. There are over 60 tombs in this small area, although only a handful are open to the public.

Ø Your entrance ticket includes a visit to three tombs, you have the option to add on three extra tombs at an additional cost.

Hatshepsut Temple, this temple with its three terraces and location in the cliffs of Deir el-Bahri, has a much different appearance than many other temples in Egypt. It is dedicated to Queen Hatshepsut one of the most powerful female rulers of ancient Egypt.

Day 4

Abu Simble & Aswan

Sitting on the bank of Lake Nasser, not far from Egypt’s border with Sudan, sit the twin temples of Abu Simble. These temples were built by Ramesses II over 3.000 years ago, to display the might of ancient Egypt. When the High Dam at Aswan was constructed in the 1960’s, the rising water levels threatened to flood the temples, both temples were painstakingly dismantled and then reassembled on higher ground.

For this trip you have to be ready at 4 am, the bus will move around 4 Am to Abu Simble, arrive around 7, finish it around 10 AM.

Back to Aswan to visit ..

The Unfinished Obelisk, the largest known obelisk in the world. It still sits in a stone quarry in Aswan since it cracked during the excavation.

The Philae Temple is one of the most beautiful temples in Egypt, and to get here, it’s a pleasant ride by boat on the Nile River.

At the End of the trip our representative will pick you up to the airport or to the train station or to the bus station ( UP to you ).
