Tour Itinerary

Day (1):

Welcome to Luxor, the historical city on the Nile with its impressive sights and its hospitable people. In the morning we’ll collect you from your hotel and take you for the 1-hour ride in an air-conditioned vehicle to Esna where the dahabiya is moored. But, before we set sail and start our magical journey, we’ll visit the Khnum Temple in Esna. After that you sit back, relax, and enjoy the breathtaking views of the Nile. At night we will be anchored at a quiet island.

Day (2):

Today we will be sailing to Edfu and Wadi Shatt. In Edfu you’ll visit the Temple of Horus, the best preserved temple in Egypt. Then, we continue sailing as far as
Wadi Shatt where we’ll go for a one hour walk through plantations and villages on the fringe of the desert. We’ll meet up with the ship again in Gebel el Silsila where dinner will be served on the deck of the boat.

Day (3):

On this day we will venture to Gebel el Silsila where you’ll see sandstone boulders that have been around since ancient times and had chapels hewn out of these rocks by rulers from pharaonic times. After that, we will head over to visit the unique temple of Haroeris and Sobek in Kom Ombo. In the evening, dinner will be served on the riverbank under the starry skies.

Day (4):

On our last full day of sailing, we’ll visit a camel stable near Daraw, where you’ll learn about the camel trade and get the chance to meet a camel up close. Afterwards, we’ll stroll through the village with its colorful fruit and vegetable stands where you can enjoy the sights and sounds of the lively market.

Day (5):

After a leisurely breakfast Captain Mohammed and his crew will bid you a fond farewell. From there, we’ll take you by car to your hotel in Aswan, the airport, or train station.
