Itinerary
Day 1 - Arrival in Aswan & Embarkation Aboard the Tamr Henna Nile Cruise
Your nile cruise ship adventure begins in Aswan — a city of rare tranquility where the Nile runs its clearest and the surrounding desert landscape glows in shades of gold and amber. Few places in Egypt capture the imagination quite like Aswan, where ancient Nubian culture, dramatic granite riverscapes, and a pace of life unchanged for centuries create an atmosphere of genuine serenity.
Upon arrival, your dedicated private Egyptologist guide greets you personally before accompanying you to the distinguished Tamr Henna Nile Cruise — your elegant floating sanctuary for the next three nights. Step aboard, settle into your well-appointed cabin with its sweeping river panoramas, and enjoy a welcoming lunch served onboard as the unhurried rhythm of the Nile begins to work its magic.
The afternoon unfolds across three of Aswan's most significant destinations. Your nile cruise ship journey begins at the Aswan High Dam — an engineering marvel whose construction tamed the seasonal flooding of the Nile and gave birth to the immense Lake Nasser. From there, your Egyptologist guide leads you to the legendary Unfinished Obelisk — abandoned mid-creation in its ancient granite quarry and lying exactly as its craftsmen left it thousands of years ago, offering a uniquely intimate window into the methods and skill of ancient Egyptian stonemasons.
Your first afternoon concludes with a scenic motorboat crossing to the enchanting island sanctuary of Philae Temple, dedicated to the goddess Isis and beautifully relocated to the peaceful shores of Agilkia Island. As late afternoon light falls softly across its elegant courtyards and intricately carved reliefs, Philae creates an atmosphere of extraordinary beauty that perfectly sets the tone for the journey ahead.
Return to the Tamr Henna Nile Cruise for a beautifully prepared dinner as the city's lights reflect softly across the Nile.
Overnight onboard in Aswan.
Day 2 - Kom Ombo Temple & Life Along the Living Nile
The second morning begins with the gentle movement of the Tamr Henna Nile Cruise as your nile cruise ship journey begins its northward passage. After a relaxed breakfast, settle onto the sun deck as Aswan's granite landscapes give way to one of the most quietly beautiful stretches of the Nile Valley. Traditional feluccas drift silently on the water, farmers work their fertile land, and riverside villages reveal a pace of daily life beautifully unchanged by the modern world.
At Kom Ombo, your Egyptologist guide leads you to one of ancient Egypt's most architecturally distinctive temples — a uniquely symmetrical double sanctuary dedicated simultaneously to Sobek, the powerful crocodile god of the Nile, and Horus the Elder, the falcon god of kingship and protection. The temple's twin halls, mirrored sanctuaries, and richly detailed carvings reveal the fascinating theological complexity of ancient Egyptian religious thought. A visit to the adjacent Crocodile Museum, housing a remarkable collection of mummified crocodiles, provides a compelling complement to the temple experience.
Return to the Tamr Henna Nile Cruise for lunch as your nile cruise ship continues its graceful northward passage toward Edfu. A relaxed evening of dinner and authentic onboard cultural entertainment follows, with the timeless rhythm of the river as the perfect accompaniment.
Overnight onboard.
Day 3 - Edfu Temple & Arrival in Luxor
After breakfast aboard the Tamr Henna Nile Cruise, you disembark at Edfu for a visit to the magnificent Temple of Horus — the best-preserved ancient temple in Egypt and one of the most completely intact examples of Ptolemaic architecture in the world. Its enormous entrance pylons, sacred hypostyle hall, and elaborately carved inner sanctuaries offer an unparalleled window into the religious ceremonies and mythological traditions of ancient Egypt. Your Egyptologist guide brings every carved scene and hieroglyphic inscription to life with a depth of knowledge that transforms this nile cruise ship highlight into a genuinely immersive encounter with the ancient world.
Rejoining the Tamr Henna Nile Cruise, your northward journey continues through the fascinating Esna Lock before a leisurely lunch is served onboard as the legendary city of Luxor draws closer on the horizon. Upon arrival, your nile cruise ship exploration of the East Bank begins at the awe-inspiring Karnak Temple Complex — walking through its iconic Hypostyle Hall, with 134 monumental columns soaring skyward and covered in sacred carvings, is an experience of overwhelming grandeur that never fails to move even the most seasoned traveler.
As dusk approaches, your guide leads you to the graceful Luxor Temple, illuminated magnificently as evening descends over the city. Return to the Tamr Henna Nile Cruise for dinner as the lights of Luxor shimmer across the water.
Overnight onboard in Luxor.
Day 4 - Luxor West Bank & Farewell to the Tamr Henna Nile Cruise
The final morning of your nile cruise ship voyage is reserved for the legendary West Bank — an archaeological landscape of extraordinary richness that stands without equal anywhere in the ancient world. After a final breakfast aboard the Tamr Henna Nile Cruise, you cross the river with your Egyptologist guide to begin a morning among monuments that have shaped humanity's understanding of ancient civilization.
In the Valley of the Kings, you descend into elaborately painted royal tombs carved deep into the limestone hills of the Theban necropolis. Surrounded by vivid scenes from the Book of the Dead and the pharaoh's celestial journey through the afterlife, the experience connects you directly with the beliefs and artistry of a civilization that flourished here over three thousand years ago. The Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el-Bahari follows — rising in elegant terraced colonnades against the sheer face of the Theban cliffs, dedicated to one of ancient Egypt's most visionary and remarkable female rulers. Your morning concludes at the Colossi of Memnon, where two immense seated figures have stood in silent guardianship over the Theban plain for more than three thousand four hundred years.
Following this final memorable morning, you are transferred comfortably to Luxor Airport, the railway station, or your hotel — bringing your extraordinary nile cruise ship voyage aboard the distinguished Tamr Henna Nile Cruise to its conclusion, with memories of temples, sunsets, and the timeless beauty of the Nile that will remain with you long after you return home.
Day 1 - Arrival in Luxor & East Bank Exploration Aboard the Tamr Henna Nile Cruise
Your five-day nile cruise ship journey begins in Luxor — once the glorious capital of Egypt's New Kingdom and home to the greatest concentration of ancient monuments anywhere on Earth. Upon arrival, our representative welcomes you and transfers you comfortably to the distinguished Tamr Henna Nile Cruise — your elegantly appointed floating home for the next four nights. Settle into your spacious cabin with its panoramic river views and enjoy a leisurely welcome lunch onboard as the excitement of the journey ahead takes hold.
Your afternoon exploration of the East Bank begins at the legendary Karnak Temple Complex, where walking through the iconic Hypostyle Hall — a breathtaking forest of 134 monumental columns covered in sacred inscriptions accumulated across three thousand years of continuous devotion — is an experience of overwhelming scale and spiritual power. As the afternoon light turns golden, your nile cruise ship itinerary continues to the graceful Luxor Temple, beautifully illuminated as evening descends over the city. Return to the Tamr Henna Nile Cruise for a warm welcome dinner as your extraordinary journey officially begins. Overnight in Luxor.
Day 2 - West Bank Wonders & Scenic Sailing South
After breakfast with Nile views, your second day aboard the Tamr Henna Nile Cruise crosses to the legendary West Bank for a morning that many travelers describe as the most powerful experience of their entire Egypt journey. In the Valley of the Kings, you descend into elaborately painted royal tombs where vivid scenes from the Book of the Dead cover every surface — your Egyptologist guide weaving the stories of gods and pharaohs into a narrative that connects you intimately with a civilization that flourished here over three millennia ago.
The Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el-Bahari follows — rising in three elegant terraced colonnades against sheer limestone cliffs in a composition of architectural brilliance and natural drama unlike anything else in Egypt. Your morning concludes at the Colossi of Memnon, where two immense seated figures have maintained their majestic vigil over the Theban plain for more than three thousand four hundred years.
Return to the Tamr Henna Nile Cruise for lunch before your nile cruise ship sets course southward through the historic Esna Lock. The sun deck becomes the finest vantage point as palm-lined riverbanks, golden fields, and desert cliffs drift peacefully by in the afternoon light.
Overnight sailing toward Edfu.
Day 3 - Edfu & Kom Ombo Temples
The third day of your nile cruise ship voyage delivers two of the most celebrated temple destinations along the Upper Nile. After breakfast aboard the Tamr Henna Nile Cruise, your morning begins at the Temple of Horus in Edfu — Egypt's finest and most completely preserved ancient temple. Its towering entrance pylons, elaborately decorated hypostyle hall, and deeply carved mythological scenes create an experience of profound historical immersion, brought fully to life by your dedicated Egyptologist guide whose knowledge and passion transform every carved wall into a living story.
Sailing onward, the Tamr Henna Nile Cruise arrives at Kom Ombo, where the temple's perfectly symmetrical double design — dedicated simultaneously to Sobek and Horus the Elder — makes it one of the most architecturally unusual and thought-provoking destinations of the entire nile cruise ship journey. The remarkable collection of ancient crocodile mummies and extraordinary carvings of what appear to be early surgical instruments add further layers of fascination to this exceptional riverside monument. As evening approaches, the vessel continues its graceful southward passage beneath skies shifting through extraordinary shades of gold and crimson. Overnight onboard.
Day 4 - Discovering the Beauty of Aswan
Aswan takes center stage on the fourth day of your nile cruise ship adventure — a city whose softer character, Nubian warmth, and dramatic riverside beauty make it unlike anywhere else along the Nile. After breakfast aboard the Tamr Henna Nile Cruise, a motorboat crossing brings you to the island sanctuary of Philae Temple, dedicated to the goddess Isis and possessing a combination of physical beauty and spiritual atmosphere that few ancient monuments anywhere can match. Its elegant colonnaded courtyards, beautifully preserved carved reliefs, and serene island setting in the soft morning light create an experience of genuine and lasting magic.
From Philae, your nile cruise ship itinerary continues to the Aswan High Dam — whose construction reshaped Egypt's agricultural landscape and created the vast Lake Nasser — followed by the remarkable Unfinished Obelisk, abandoned in its ancient granite quarry thousands of years ago and offering a fascinating window into the ambition and craftsmanship of ancient Egyptian stonemasons.
The afternoon offers an optional felucca sailing excursion around Elephantine Island or a visit to a traditional Nubian village — an opportunity to experience one of Africa's oldest and most distinctive living cultures at close quarters. The evening brings a celebratory farewell dinner aboard the Tamr Henna Nile Cruise — a fitting and joyful conclusion to an extraordinary nile cruise ship journey.
Overnight onboard.
Day 5 - Optional Abu Simbel & Departure from Aswan
Your final morning aboard the Tamr Henna Nile Cruise begins gently with breakfast as early light falls across the Nile outside your cabin window — a peaceful and memorable final hour aboard a vessel that has carried you through some of the most extraordinary landscapes and monuments in the world.
For those wishing to crown this remarkable nile cruise ship experience with one final and unforgettable encounter, an optional excursion to Abu Simbel is available. The colossal rock-cut temples of Ramses II and Nefertari — carved into the sandstone cliffs above Lake Nasser and precisely oriented so that sunlight illuminates the inner sanctuary on two specific days each year — represent the absolute pinnacle of ancient Egyptian monumental ambition. Their extraordinary scale, artistic mastery, and the remarkable story of their relocation to save them from the rising waters of Lake Nasser combine to make Abu Simbel an experience that leaves every visitor profoundly moved.
Following breakfast and this optional excursion, disembarkation in Aswan brings your magnificent nile cruise ship voyage aboard the distinguished Tamr Henna Nile Cruise to its conclusion — not with sadness, but with the deep and lasting satisfaction of having experienced something truly extraordinary in a place unlike any other on Earth.
Frequently Asked Questions
How far in advance should I book my Egypt tour?
We recommend securing your reservation 3 to 6 months prior to your intended travel date. This is particularly important during Egypt's peak season, which runs from October through April. Booking early not only guarantees availability but also gives our team ample time to craft a truly personalised experience tailored to your preferences.
Do you offer discounted rates for group travel?
Yes, we are pleased to offer preferential rates for groups of 6 or more travellers. As every group has unique requirements, we invite you to contact us directly so that we may prepare a customised quotation suited to your party size, itinerary, and interests.
What is included in the tour price?
Our tour packages are designed to provide a seamless, all-encompassing experience. Inclusions typically cover accommodation, guided excursions, select meals, and all transportation within Egypt. Specific inclusions vary by package, and a full breakdown is provided at the time of booking so you know exactly what to expect.
Is travel insurance required to book with you?
Travel insurance is not a mandatory requirement; however, we strongly advise all clients to obtain comprehensive coverage prior to departure. International travel can bring unforeseen circumstances — from medical emergencies to flight disruptions — and adequate insurance ensures that your journey is protected from the unexpected.
Is Egypt actually safe for tourists in 2026?
Egypt is genuinely safe for travelers, and millions visit each year without incident. Tourist police are a highly visible presence at every major site, resort town, and transport hub. The Egyptian government treats tourism as a national priority — and that protection is real, not just on paper. Common sense applies as it would anywhere: stay aware of your surroundings, avoid unsanctioned political gatherings, and stick to well-traveled areas after dark. The Egyptian people themselves are famously warm and hospitable toward visitors.
Can I get a visa on arrival, or do I need to apply in advance?
Most nationalities — including those from the US, UK, EU, Australia, and Canada — can purchase a single-entry tourist visa on arrival at Cairo International Airport. The cost is USD $25 or the equivalent in Euros, paid in cash only (cards are not accepted at the visa desk). Your passport must be valid for at least six months from your travel date. Alternatively, Egypt's e-Visa portal (visa2egypt.gov.eg) lets 41 nationalities apply online before departure. However, many travelers find it simpler to just buy it at the airport.
Is it safe for women to travel solo in Egypt?
Solo female travel in Egypt is increasingly common, and many women do it comfortably with proper preparation. Dress modestly outside of Red Sea resort areas, be confident in your manner, and don't hesitate to be firm with anyone who is overly persistent. Harassment does occur, particularly in busy tourist markets, but it is usually verbal and easily managed by moving on. Booking tours with reputable operators removes a lot of friction and lets you focus on the experience itself. Many female solo travelers describe Egypt as one of their most memorable journeys.
Can I extend my tourist visa if I want to stay longer?
Yes — a standard tourist visa is valid for 30 days, but extensions are obtainable. Visit the Mogamma building in Cairo's Tahrir Square, or go to the passport offices in Luxor, Alexandria, or Aswan. Extensions allow you to stay for an additional month. Come prepared with your passport, a photo, and a small fee. If you're leaving Egypt and re-entering (for example, via Jordan), you'll need a fresh visa on your return — your original is cancelled at departure.
What currency is used, and how much cash should I carry?
The Egyptian Pound (EGP) is the local currency. Hotels, large restaurants, and most shops in tourist areas accept major credit cards and US dollars or Euros at a reasonable rate. That said, always keep some Egyptian Pounds on hand — local markets, small cafés, taxi drivers, and tips all run on cash. ATMs are widely available at airports, banks, and shopping centers across all major tourist cities, and they dispense Egyptian Pounds directly.
How does tipping work in Egypt, and how much is expected?
Tipping — known locally as "baksheesh" — is a well-established part of Egyptian culture and an important part of service workers' income. At restaurants, 10–15% is standard. For private guides, EGP 100–200 per day is appreciated. Drivers typically receive EGP 50–100 for a full day. At major sites like the Pyramids, you may encounter unofficial "helpers" who offer unsolicited assistance and then expect payment — it's perfectly fine to politely decline any help you didn't ask for.
Is bargaining expected in the markets?
Absolutely — bargaining is part of the experience in Egypt's bazaars and souks. Opening prices at markets like Cairo's Khan el-Khalili are usually two to three times what a seller expects to receive. Approach it with good humor, don't take the first price, and feel free to walk away — that often brings a better offer. Fixed-price shops and mall stores are the exception: what you see is what you pay. The goal is always a fair deal, not a "win," so keep it friendly.
What should I wear while exploring Cairo and Luxor?
Lightweight, loose-fitting clothing that covers your shoulders and knees is ideal — both for cultural respect and practical comfort in the heat. Think linen trousers, long cotton skirts, and breathable tops. Men should avoid shorts at historic and religious sites. Flat, closed-toe shoes are strongly recommended when walking around temples and pyramids — the ground is uneven and dusty. Red Sea resort towns like Hurghada and El Gouna are far more relaxed; beach attire is completely normal there.
What are the rules for visiting mosques and religious sites?
Shoes must be removed before entering any mosque — bring a bag to carry them if you prefer not to leave them at the door. Women are asked to cover their hair and wear clothing that covers arms and legs; a large scarf in your day bag solves this easily. Men in shorts may be lent a wrap at the entrance of some mosques. Most mosques are closed to non-Muslim visitors during prayer times, so check in advance for the five daily prayer schedules, especially Friday midday prayers when many sites close temporarily.
Is alcohol available in Egypt?
Yes, alcohol is legal and available — but selectively so. You'll find beer, wine, and spirits at hotels, upscale restaurants, licensed bars, and duty-free shops. Outside of tourist establishments and resort areas, alcohol is rarely sold. Drinking in public streets is not acceptable and is technically prohibited. You may bring up to 2 liters of alcohol into Egypt duty-free. The legal drinking age is 21.
Can I go inside the Great Pyramids of Giza?
Yes — entry to the interior of the Pyramids is possible but limited. Only a fixed number of tickets are released each day and they sell out quickly, especially at peak season. Tickets must be purchased in person at the main entrance; online booking is not available for interior access. Arrive early — ideally before 8 AM. Be aware that the passages inside are narrow, low, and warm. If you're claustrophobic, the experience of the exterior and plateau is every bit as spectacular.
Can I take photos inside the tombs in the Valley of the Kings?
Photography inside the tombs is prohibited — a rule that is actively enforced. Cameras and phones are typically required to be put away before entering. The reason isn't arbitrary: flash photography, even from smartphones, accelerates the deterioration of thousands-of-years-old paint and pigment on tomb walls. Respect the rule. What you can do is photograph everything outside, and the imagery inside is so vivid it will remain in your memory long after the visit.
Is a Nile cruise worth it, and what type should I choose?
A Nile cruise between Luxor and Aswan is one of the finest ways to experience Upper Egypt — watching temples emerge from the riverbanks as you sail is genuinely unlike anything else. Classic motor cruises (3–5 nights) are the most common and affordable. For a more intimate, slower experience, a Dahabiya — a traditional wooden sailing vessel accommodating only 8–16 guests — offers unhurried access to small villages and lesser-visited temples. Lake Nasser cruises, sailing south of Aswan toward Abu Simbel, are for the truly adventurous.
When is the best time of year to visit Egypt?
October through April is the golden window — temperatures are comfortable (15–28°C / 60–82°F) and the light is extraordinary. December and January are peak season with the highest hotel rates and crowds. March to May is a sweet spot: warm but not oppressive, with fewer crowds and lower prices. Summer (June–September) is intensely hot in Cairo and Upper Egypt — up to 45°C (113°F) — though the Red Sea resorts remain pleasant due to sea breezes and are significantly cheaper to visit.

My husband and I had an excellent time in Egypt for 5 days thanks to Lady Egypt. With thanks to Nadin for being our point of contact, every step of the way was very well planned and executed in a smooth manner. Shams was our guide in Cairo, and she’s extremely knowledgeable and knows how to navigate her way through Cairo’s history. Ahmed in Luxor went out of his way to help us with logistical arrangements when our hotel wasn’t up to the mark. Mohammed in Hurgadha was great as well. Overall, a lovely place to visit, with thanks to Lady Egypt for their help, planning and coordination from the minute we landed to when we took off, and big hugs to Shams and Nadin. ❤️
Amazing 2 Week Tour with Lady Egypt! I recently did a 2-week tour of Egypt with Lady Egypt Tours and had an incredible experience from start to finish. Our guide, Mahmoud, was absolutely brilliant – like having a personal ancient history teacher by our side every day. His knowledge, passion, and storytelling brought Egypt’s history to life in the most fascinating way. Everything was well-organised, the itinerary was fantastic, and I felt completely looked after the whole time. I can’t recommend Lady Egypt and Mahmoud highly enough for anyone wanting to explore this beautiful country!
An amazing 9 day visit to Cairo, Luxor and Aswan, the whole experience was incredible in every aspect, the weather was windy and cool but the clear skies made a view to remember, overall a trip to remember one that is necessary to do in a lifetime. Mr.Ahmed our guide was excellent in helping us through international barriers that you may face in foreign countries, helping us immerse ourselves in the culture.
Lady Egypt Tours guides were incredible! Everyone was extremely helpful, knowledgeable, enthusiastic, outgoing and friendly. From the moment we met Nadine at the airport everything was taken care of and we didn't have to worry at all. All our guides for our tours throughout our stay in Egypt went above and beyond to ensure we received the best experience possible. We couldn't fault them and we have told all our friends that if they are to go to Egypt then they have to book through this company.
