    A Floating Museum with a Stunning View
    This cruise is not just a trip; it’s a cultural dive into Egypt’s grandeur. The temples of Kom Ombo and Edfu are a testament to ancient brilliance, while the luxurious accommodations onboard make you feel like royalty. My favorite moment was watching the sunrise over the Nile with a warm cup of coffee. The food, the staff, and the amenities were top-notch, making this journey an unforgettable one. Even the optional Sound & Light Show at Karnak Temple added a magical touch to the evenings.

    Luxury Meets History on the Nile
    Waking up every morning to a new panoramic view of the Nile felt like living in a dream. The SUNRISE Semiramis I Nile Cruise offers not just luxury, but also an immersive cultural journey. From the breathtaking temples of Luxor to the fascinating stories of the Pharaohs, every stop was captivating. The hot air balloon ride over Luxor added an unforgettable adventurous twist to the experience. Our cabin was cozy and luxurious, making it hard to believe we were on a boat. I highly recommend exploring the optional tours – the felucca ride was my personal favorite.
