The sun slides low over the Nile as the cruise eases away from Aswan — warm light pooling on ripples while small feluccas dart between islands. On deck, tea steams in tiny glasses and the river seems to pull the boat forward, carrying you past mud-brick villages, grazing cattle, and prayerful mornings on the shore.
