The Top 10 Reasons to Take a Nile Cruise Include:
Memories
1. The wonders of Egypt will live in your memory for the rest of your life. See the Great Pyramid of Cheops, the largest of the three main Pyramids and the only survivor of the Seven Great Wonders of the Ancient World. Nearby is the Sphinx, the lion's body stretches 45m or 135 feet. The Valley of the kings is where the Kings and Queens of ancient Egypt were entombed. The Egyptian Museum in Cairo houses all the treasures discovered over the millennia. It is moving from Cairo to Giza in 2020. Marvel at the temples of Hatshepsut, Edfu, Kom Ombo, Philae and Abu Simbel which was moved in the 20th century when the Aswan Dam was constructed.
Private Guide
2. Our Egyptologist will join you on board and be your private guide or join one of our small groups (15 people or less). A better way to see the marvels of ancient Egypt rather than joining the large tour group from the rest of the boat. Our guide is also at your service during the cruise to help with any problems such as dietary requirements, or if you simply wish to sit and talk about Egypt.
Unpack Once
3. Unpack only once and float down the Nile in a boutique Hotel. All rooms have large windows and it is a fantastic feeling staring out the window from your room or from a lounge chair on the sun deck and watching the scenes of the Nile go by as they have done for thousands of years.
Transfers
