The Nile slips past like an old guide, slow and deliberate, carrying you from the Red Sea plain up through the heart of Upper Egypt. Early on the first day you leave Hurghada's coastline behind, trading sandstone desert for the river's green ribbon, and by evening the low lights of Luxor give way to the soft outline of your 5‑star dahabiya-style cruise.
