Tour Overview


Day 1 – Luxor Sightseeing and Transfer to Esna

When you arrive in Luxor for your amazing 5-Day Esna to Aswan MS Amoura Dahabiya Nile cruise, your tour manager will be standing by to meet and greet you at the airport or at the railway station. They will assist you in any way they can, and then they will escort you for an unforgettable sightseeing tour in Luxor. Throughout your tour, you will also have an experienced Expert tour guide with you in order to ensure that you really do get the most out of this tour.

Your tour will see you visiting some of Egypt’s most famous and most fascinating ancient relics, including Valley of the Kings, home to more than 70 royal tombs, including the tomb of King Tutankhamen and the tomb of Ramesses II. You will also visit Karnak Temple; the Colossi of Memnon, and they magnificent rock-cut temple of Queen Hatshepsut.

After you have finished visiting these astonishing sites, you will then be escorted to Esna in a modern air-conditioned vehicle. On arrival, you will board the beautiful 5-Start MS Amoura Dahabiya, a traditional river yacht which will be your luxury home on the water for the remainder of your cruise.

After boarding, you will be assisted by the crew, and you will have ample time to settle into your cabin or your suite before sitting down to a lovely onboard dinner. The first night of your cruise will be spent sleeping on the water at Esna.

Meals Included: Lunch and Dinner

 

Day 2 – Cruising; Horse-Drawn Carriage Tour and Sightseeing

Wake up and enjoy a wonderful onboard breakfast at leisure while your Dahabiya sails to Edfu. After you have finished your breakfast, relax in your cabin or sit outside on the vessel’s spacious sundeck and admire the passing scenery. Once you arrive at Edfu, you will disembark, and you will be taken to visit Edfu Temple in a lovely horse-drawn carriage.

Edfu Temple is one of the biggest and most well-preserved temples of the ancient world, largely because of the fact that it lay hidden beneath the sand for around 2,000 years. Arriving in a horse-drawn carriage at the entrance to this site, which is flanked by two beautiful granite statues of Horus the falcon god, is really an experience you will never forget.

After you have had ample time to explore this amazing site, your carriage will take you to a massive bazaar where you will be able to barter for things to take back with back with you for family or friends. You will also be able to choose whether you want to explore the bazaar on foot, or whether you want to be driven around in the carriage.

Finally, you will return to the MS Amoura in time for a good onboard lunch, and during this time the vessel will be sailing towards Silsela Hormoheb Temple. On arrival, you will be taken to explore this fascinating site, and you may even have your dinner inside the grounds of this ancient site. If not, then dinner will be served on a tiny nearby island, or on your boat’s sundeck. You will also be sleeping here tonight, but you will be sleeping onboard in the comfort of your cabin.

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner

 

Day 3 – Sail to Kom Ombo and on to Aswan

Wake up to another wonderful breakfast on the water while you sail silently to Kom Ombo. When you arrive, everyone will disembark, and you will be taken to visit Kom Ombo Temple. This is a spectacular Greco-Roman temple, and your Expert guide will be more than happy to explain the fascinating history of this remarkable site.

Following your visit to this temple, you will head back to your river yacht, and it will then begin sailing towards Aswan, stopping just outside the gates to the city. Expect to a lot of wildlife and lots of spectacular scenery during your cruise to Aswan. Lunch and dinner will once again be enjoyed on board the vessel, and you will be sleeping on board just outside of Aswan.

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner

 

Day 4 – Aswan Sightseeing

After another fine onboard breakfast, your Dahabiya river yacht will tie up and everyone will disembark for a visit to the indescribable Philae Temple. Like many other ancient relics in the Lake Nasser region, Philae Temple was moved in its entirety in order to save it from the rising waters of Lake Nasser following the construction of the Aswan High Dam.

Once you have had plenty of time to explore and photograph this marvelous site, you will be taken to see the Aswan High Dam itself, and then you will have the opportunity to wander around the bustling Aswan bazaar before finally returning to the boat for a much-deserved break and another good night’s rest on the water.

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner

 

Day 5 – Disembarkation and Transfer to Airport

Sadly, today is the last day of your unforgettable 5-Day Esna to Aswan MS Amoura Dahabiya Nile cruise, but before you disembark for the final time, first sit down and enjoy one last breakfast on onboard this charming boat. Once you have finished your meal, it will be time for you to gather your belonging, and then disembark.
