Choosing between 5 star nile cruise ships rather than a standard tourist boat changes the whole feel of a Nile sailing, from the size of the cabin to the standard of food served each evening. Every vessel in this collection from Bastet Travel is rated five-star, pairing the same sightseeing route between Luxor and Aswan with genuinely premium onboard service. Below you'll find the general sailing programme explained by direction and onboard experience, rather than the names of individual ships, so you can see exactly what a booking includes before choosing one.

A 5 star nile cruise ship sailing south from Luxor opens with the East and West Bank sites, including Karnak Temple, Luxor Temple, and the Valley of The Kings, before the ship departs south for the river portion of the trip, leaving the busier streets of Luxor behind.

From there, the itinerary calls at Edfu Temple and Kom Ombo Temple, finishing in Aswan with Philae Temple and the High Dam. Onboard, this 5 star nile cruise ship pairs five-star dining with a sundeck pool each day. Browse sailings under Luxury Nile Cruises From Luxor or Luxor To Aswan Nile Cruises.

Most sailings on this style of 5 star nile cruise ship run 4 to 7 nights, timed so guests wake up docked at the next temple rather than losing daylight hours to travel between stops.

Because a 5 star nile cruise ship moves overnight while guests sleep, days themselves are spent almost entirely on sightseeing rather than transit, which is part of why this style of sailing suits both first-time and repeat visitors to Egypt.

Travelers who'd rather start in the south will find an equally premium 5 star nile cruise ship sailing from Aswan to Luxor. The trip opens with Philae Temple, the High Dam, and a felucca-style glide around Elephantine Island before the ship heads north.

Along the way, the ship stops at Kom Ombo Temple and Edfu Temple, arriving in Luxor for the Valley of The Queens, Hatshepsut Temple, and Colossi of Memnon. This direction of 5 star nile cruise ship suits travelers who'd rather see Aswan first. See current departures under Luxury Nile Cruises From Aswan.

Because meals, guiding, and transfers on every 5 star nile cruise ship run as a fully arranged programme, there's little for guests to plan once they land, beyond choosing which optional excursions to add along the route.

Booking a 5 star nile cruise ship from Aswan also works well for travelers flying into Aswan directly, since it avoids doubling back through Luxor before the sailing even begins, saving a day of travel at the start of the trip.

Cabins on this class of 5 star nile cruise ship typically include a private balcony or panoramic window, en-suite bathroom, and daily housekeeping, with suite categories offering more floor space and a separate seating area.

Common onboard facilities across most 5 star nile cruise ship options include a rooftop pool, a spa or massage room, and a lounge bar with river views for the evening hours. Guiding is private or in a small group throughout, so sightseeing pace stays flexible.

Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and a laundry service are standard on nearly every 5 star nile cruise ship, so day-to-day comfort matches what guests would expect from a five-star hotel rather than a basic river boat.

Evening entertainment on many a 5 star nile cruise ship often includes a Karnak Sound and Light Show or a similar performance at one of the temples visited along the route, giving guests a cultural evening activity beyond dinner on board.

Bastet Travel works only with vetted five-star vessels and licensed Egyptologist guides, so the standard shown across every 5 star nile cruise ship listing is consistent from the first day to the last.
