If you feel like visiting Upper Egypt, we invite you to the Nile Cruise. An old Egyptian proverb says “Egypt as a gift of the Nile”. The Egyptians have for centuries owed their existence to the Nile River. The area around the Nile accumulates many monuments. A Nile cruise is a great way to learn about the history of Egypt. Cruise ships stop in the most interesting areas from Luxor to Aswan. The duration of the trip is 5 days and 4 nights or 7 days and 6 nights. For groups of about 6 people, we organize cruises on the Nile with a 5 * luxury ship.
Day 1: Arrival
Arrival in Hurghada. Accommodation in a 5 * hotel, All Inclusive option
Day 2: Hurghada - Luxor
Day 3: Esna - El Kab - Quessia
El Kab is a prehistoric settlement, rock tombs, remains of temples from the early dynasty (3100-2686 BC) to the Ptolemaic period
(332-30 B.C.), walls of a Coptic monastery. The cemetery has several important tombs: Sobeknakht II or Setau (priest during the reign of Ramses II). Near the city center there are remains of sandstone temples dedicated to the deities of Nechbet iThoth. A place for people fascinated by ancient culture, extraordinary.
Lunch will be served on a boat or on a calm, green shore of the island. We will also spend the night here.
Day 4: Edfu - Wadi el Shat
Day 5: Gebel el Silsila - Kom Ombo - Maniha
It is also the largest quarry where sandstone was mined for the construction of temples, e.g. in Karnak or Ramesseum and Medinet Habu. Today it is an archaeological site.
It is here that you can see the ruins of temples dedicated to Pharaohs: Horemheb, Seti I, Ramses II and Merenptah. Then we head up the Nile towards the double temple of Haroeris and Sobek in Kom Ombo. We will spend the night mooring at Maniha Island.
