Between excursions, enjoy time to explore Cairo’s vibrant streets, colorful markets, and lively holiday atmosphere.
Flying south to Luxor, the ancient capital of Thebes, you’ll step into the world of pharaohs. Walk through the Valley of the Kings, where grand tombs hold the secrets of rulers like Ramses and Tutankhamun. Gaze in awe at the striking Mortuary Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, a masterpiece of ancient architecture, and witness the towering Colossi of Memnon. The journey continues on the East Bank with the vast Karnak Temple complex, dedicated to the gods with towering columns and sacred avenues, followed by the elegant Luxor Temple, which glows beautifully under evening lights.

As you sail, admire the timeless landscapes along the riverbanks and stop at temples that feel like treasures unwrapped for the season. Visit the dual-dedicated Kom Ombo Temple, honoring both Sobek and Horus, and the remarkably preserved Temple of Horus at Edfu, one of the finest examples of ancient Egyptian craftsmanship. In Aswan, explore the enchanting island temple of Philae, dedicated to the goddess Isis, and stand before the massive Unfinished Obelisk, a testament to the skill of ancient stonemasons.
Evenings on the cruise are filled with festive spirit—share international cuisine and authentic Egyptian flavors, enjoy cocktails under the stars, and relax on deck as the Nile flows quietly beneath the glow of Christmas lights. The combination of ancient history and holiday celebration makes every moment magical.
