A classic way to experience Egypt, this luxury adventure takes you first to the capital of Cairo, followed by a stunning 4-night cruise down the Nile from Luxor to Aswan.


Why we love it

“There is nothing more iconic in Egypt than cruising the Nile, Agatha Christie-style, and gazing out at some of the greatest archaeological sites in the world. This is the epitome of slow travel, you'll see the great Pyramids in Cairo before hopping over to Luxor for your water-bound journey along the Nile to Aswan. Why not add a few nights here at the end, relaxing in hotels that were once great Ottoman Palaces or visiting the incredible rock temples of Abu Simbel? Our local Egyptologists are always at hand to bring the ‘Land of the Pharaohs’ alive.”

Cairo

Home to one of the great wonders of the world, Cairo is chaotic, mesmerising and brimming with character. For first-timers to Egypt, it's an absolute must and for those returning, there's always somewhere new to see. We've curated some great activities, from Khan Al Khalili market tours to local music performances, and recommend at least 3 nights at the start or end of a trip.

Aswan

A truly beautiful section of Nile, where you can spend your days drifting on a felucca or visiting colorful Nubian villages. We recommend 2 or 3 nights and at least a half-day with a local guide to enjoy Aswan to the fullest. From here it's also possible to visit the incredible site of Abu Simbel on a day trip.
