The first light over Cairo washes the city’s stone and glass into a hard gold. Travelers meet a local guide, step into an air-conditioned transfer and move from the urban bustle to the slow, lapping rhythm of the Nile — first in Luxor where temples rise from flat desert plains, then aboard a traditional sandal boat as the river pushes the group south toward Aswan.

7 days.
Suitable for travelers in average fitness who can manage short walks on uneven temple stone and boarding small boats.
Most visitors require a visa; check your nationality’s requirements before travel and arrange either an e-visa or visa on arrival as applicable.
The cruise is gentle — days are spent sailing and on short shore excursions; walking is moderate and accessible for most fitness levels.
This itinerary lists breakfasts, lunches and dinners included over the week, but confirm specific dietary needs ahead of time with the operator.
Wi‑Fi may be limited or absent on traditional sandal boats; cellular coverage is intermittent along parts of the river — plan for offline maps and downloads.
The Nile Valley between Luxor and Aswan hosts dozens of temples and tombs from Pharaonic, Greek-Roman and later Egyptian periods, developed along the river’s fertile floodplain for millennia.
High visitor numbers can stress fragile archaeological stone and local water resources; follow site rules, avoid touching reliefs and minimize single-use plastics aboard.
