Luxor to Aswan 4 Night 5 Day HS Kon Tiki Nile Cruise

Luxor to Aswan 5-Day Nile Cruise on H/S Kon Tiki
Experience the timeless beauty of the Nile on a 4-night, 5-day Luxor to Aswan Nile cruise aboard the H/S Kon Tiki, a five-star floating hotel designed for comfortable cruising through Upper Egypt. This classic itinerary combines ancient temples, royal tombs, fascinating landscapes, and relaxing time on the river, making it an excellent way to discover Egypt’s most important archaeological treasures in one seamless journey. 

Your journey begins in Luxor, one of the world's greatest open-air archaeological destinations. After boarding the H/S Kon Tiki, explore the magnificent Karnak Temple Complex and Luxor Temple, where monumental columns, obelisks, courtyards, and ancient inscriptions reveal the importance of ancient Thebes. The ship then begins sailing south toward Aswan, allowing you to enjoy Egypt's countryside from the comfort of the sun deck.
The second day focuses on the Luxor West Bank. Visit the famous Valley of the Kings, the burial place of numerous New Kingdom pharaohs, followed by the impressive Temple of Queen Hatshepsut at Deir el-Bahari and the Colossi of Memnon. After sightseeing, return to the cruise for lunch and continue sailing toward Edfu through the Esna Lock. 

On the third day, discover the beautifully preserved Temple of Horus at Edfu, dedicated to the falcon-headed god Horus. Continue by cruise to Kom Ombo, where the unique double temple is dedicated to Sobek and Horus. The combination of temple visits and Nile sailing gives you the opportunity to experience both ancient Egyptian history and the peaceful landscapes of Upper Egypt.
As the cruise approaches Aswan, enjoy a sightseeing day featuring the Philae Temple, the Aswan High Dam, and the Unfinished Obelisk. Philae Temple is located on Agilkia Island and is reached by a short boat ride, creating one of the most memorable experiences of the journey. 

The H/S Kon Tiki provides a range of onboard facilities designed to make your Nile journey comfortable, including elegant cabins, a sun deck, swimming facilities, restaurants and lounges. Published information describes approximately 70 cabins, including suites and panoramic suites, along with spa and wellness facilities. 
Why Choose This Nile Cruise?
