4-NIGHT CRUISE FROM LUXOR TO ASWAN
Day 1: Luxor
On the first day we will pick you up at Luxor airport at your arrival time. We can also pick you up at the train station, a hotel or any other place. We will take you to the motorboat (that is what the boats that travel the Nile are called), where the full board begins.
Day 2: Luxor – Esna – Edfu
After breakfast we will disembark to visit the majestic city of Luxor, the ancient Thebes. We will visit two of the most spectacular temples in Egypt, the Luxor Temple and the Karnak Temple, formerly separated by the Avenue of the Sphinxes, a three-kilometer-long street.
After eating we will head to the gigantic necropolis near Luxor. We will visit the Valley of the Kings (entering 3 tombs), the Temple of Hatsepsut (dedicated to the only woman who reigned in Egypt for a long period) and the Colossi of Memnon (two gigantic stone statues representing Pharaoh Amenhotep III) .
Upon returning to the boat we will begin sailing towards Edfu, where we will dock for dinner and spend the night.
Day 3: Edfu – Kom Ombo – Aswan
Once we have had breakfast and our energies are recharged, we will visit the Temple of Edfu, dedicated to the God Horus. The cruise continues sailing towards Kom Ombo, where we will visit its incredible temple, dedicated to the gods Sobek and Hareoris.
After the visit we will sail to Aswan, where we will spend the night.
Day 4: Aswan
After breakfast we will disembark to visit one of the most beautiful temples in Egypt, the Temple of Philae, dedicated to the goddess Isis. Whoever wishes can take, after visiting Philae, the excursion to the temples of Abu Simbel, something that we highly recommend.
In the afternoon we will take a felucca ride along the Nile to contemplate its life, its volcanic islands and its nature. We will also spend the last night in Aswan.
Day 5: Aswan
After having breakfast and checking out you will have free time. At the time you want, we will take you to Aswan airport, the train station or wherever you want in the city. If the transfer is in the afternoon you can also eat on board.

COMPLETE TOUR BY CAIRO
Our Spanish-speaking tour guide will pick you up from your hotel first thing in the morning and we will enter the historic center of the largest metropolis in Africa.
Our first stop will be the Citadel of Saladin, a huge medieval fortress that has become the best-known non-Pharaonic monument in Cairo. Inside the fortress we will enter the Mosque of Mohamed Ali, known as the Alabaster Mosque due to the material that covers it. Its ornate decoration is spectacular.
Leaving the fortress behind we will head to the Khan el-Khalili market (Khan El-Khalili), the most famous market in Cairo. Walking through its labyrinthine streets is like visiting an authentic open-air museum. Khan el-Khalili is perfect for buying souvenirs and reproductions of Ancient Egyptian objects.
After the market we will stop for an optional meal at a high-class restaurant.
In the afternoon we will dedicate ourselves to discovering the Egyptian Museum, the most important not only in the country, but in the entire world. Here are the masterpieces of the pharaonic era, its greatest exponent being the treasure of Tutankhamun.
We will tour the Coptic Neighborhood, one of the most unique in the city. Here, we will visit Al-Muallaqa, better known as the Hanging Church, because it was built on top of the ruins of the Tower of Babylon. Nearby, we will see the Ben Ezra Synagogue, located on the site where it is believed that baby Moses was found. In addition, we will go to the Church of San Sergio, known as the Cave Church, where the Holy Family was hidden during their flight to Egypt. The day ends with your return to your hotel.
