Itineraries

Your journey begins upon arrival in Aswan, where you are warmly welcomed by our representative and transferred to your luxury cruise for embarkation and check-in.

After enjoying lunch on board, your exploration of Aswan begins.

First stop: the mighty High Dam, a modern engineering masterpiece built under President Gamal Abdel Nasser to control the Nile’s floods and transform Egypt’s future.

Next, sail by motorboat to the beautiful Philae Temple, located on Agilika Island. Dedicated to the goddess Isis, this temple reflects the elegance of the Greco-Roman era and the deep spirituality of ancient Egypt.

Your final visit of the day is the fascinating Unfinished Obelisk, resting in the ancient granite quarries. It offers a rare glimpse into how colossal monuments were carved in antiquity.

After the tour, return to your cruise for dinner and overnight on board.

Meals: Lunch & Dinner

After breakfast on board, your adventure continues with a visit to the impressive Kalabsha

Temple, overlooking the High Dam.
Originally built during the late Ptolemaic and Roman periods, it is dedicated to the Nubian god Mandulis and beautifully blends Egyptian and Roman artistic styles.

Next, visit the remarkable Beit El Wali Temple, a rock-cut sanctuary rescued from the rising waters of Lake Nasser. Its detailed wall carvings tell powerful stories of military victories and divine offerings.

Return to the cruise for lunch and relaxation as the ship begins sailing towards Wadi El Seboua, passing through the symbolic Tropic of Cancer.

The scenery changes as golden desert landscapes meet endless water horizons.

Meals: Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner

 

Begin your morning with a visit to Wadi El Seboua, meaning “Valley of the Lions.”
Here, sphinx-lined pathways lead to temples built during the reign of Ramesses II, creating a powerful atmosphere of ancient grandeur surrounded by desert silence.

Return to the cruise for lunch before continuing your journey to the Temple of Amada.

Amada is the oldest monument in the Lake Nasser region, predating even Abu Simbel by nearly two centuries. Built during the 18th Dynasty, it reflects the refined artistry of early New Kingdom Egypt, later enhanced by Ramesses II and his successors.

Dinner and overnight on board as the cruise continues its serene journey.

Meals: Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner

 

Early morning sailing brings you to Kasr Ibrim, the only ancient site still in its original elevated location. From the sun deck, you will witness this historic fortress rising dramatically above the lake like a timeless island of stone.

The journey then continues to the highlight of the entire cruise: the magnificent Abu Simbel Temples.

Carved into the mountainside by Pharaoh Ramesses II, these colossal temples are among the most iconic monuments in the world.
They were famously relocated in the 1960s in one of UNESCO’s greatest rescue operations to save them from the rising waters of the Nile.

Optional in the evening: a breathtaking Sound & Light Show that brings the temples to life with music, narration, and illuminated storytelling.

Meals: Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner

 

Enjoy your final breakfast on board as your unforgettable journey comes to an end.

After check-out, our representative will transfer you to Aswan Airport for your flight back to Cairo, carrying with you memories of ancient temples, golden deserts, and timeless stories.
