Nile Cruises Between Luxor and Aswan

Temples by day, the river by night, and one hotel that moves with you

The stretch of river between Luxor and Aswan carries the densest concentration of standing temples anywhere in Egypt, and a cruise is the only way to arrive at most of them the way they were meant to be reached. Kom Ombo sits directly on the bank; Edfu is a short ride inland from the mooring.

If you are still deciding, start with the Nile Cruise Guide, compare a luxury boat against a budget one, or read what actually happens on the Luxor to Aswan route. When you are ready, the Nile cruise packages set out the boats and the dates.
