River cruise excursions
Egypt Nile river cruises, the country is at peace, and even though many visitors are staying away, many more sincerely believe that now is the ideal time to travel to our beautiful country and take advantage of the many advantages of doing so while others are not.
Cairo Cruises, you can take a leisurely stroll around Luxor's fabled Valley of the Kings on the west bank of the Nile, alone or with your travel companions, your own guide, and perhaps the spirits of long-dead pharaohs.
With such ease of mobility, you won't feel hurried and can take your time seeing the magnificent temple of Queen Hatshepsut or the tomb of the boy king, Tutankhamun.
Cruises on the Nile in 2023 The mythical temple of Karnak is located in Luxor, which is on the east bank of the Nile. On your visit, though, you'll be able to roam around the enormous hypostyle rooms and around the enormous columns by yourself, allowing you the chance to admire their beauty in quiet seclusiona rare opportunity in such a busy tourist location.
Best time to cruise the Nile?
My ideal time to go on a Nile cruise would be between March and April or October and November. The weather is dry and warm without being too hot. There also tend to be fewer visitors at these times, so the sites are quieter and more atmospheric.
Nile Cruise Holidays, Nile cruises have been transporting tourists between Luxor and Aswan for well over a century, making them historically the easiest method of travel in Egypt. As you leisurely meander along the river, you get a glimpse of the nation through the eyes of earlier travellers who, like us, came to marvel at the tombs and temples the Ancient Egyptians left behind.
Aswan Nile Cruise, Although there are fewer Ancient Egyptian antiquities to explore in Aswan, the city has an amazing history of its own and exhibits a whole different aspect of Egypt through its Nubian culture (an ethnic group originating from Sudan and southern Egypt).
It's also, in my opinion, the Nile's most beautiful city, and it's a wonderful spot to unwind while watching feluccas navigate around massive river boulders. Visit its churches, monasteries, and mosques, or stroll through its markets selling typical Nubian goods and delicacies like spicy stewed beef.
