Discover the serene beauty of Upper Egypt with this exclusive 4-day journey combining the tranquil elegance of Aswan with a luxury cruise along the life-giving Nile. This carefully curated experience showcases Egypt’s southern treasures while providing accommodations at the country’s most legendary properties. From the colonial splendor of the Old Cataract to the unparalleled luxury of the Oberoi Zahra, this journey represents the finest in Egyptian hospitality.
Upon arrival at Aswan Airport, your personal guide will escort you to the legendary Old Cataract Hotel. Spend the afternoon at leisure, perhaps enjoying the hotel's famous high tea on the Terrace overlooking the Nile cataracts. For dinner, we recommend the optional King Farouk Terrace experience, where you'll dine under the stars in the footsteps of royalty (advance reservation required).
After breakfast at the Old Cataract, transfer to the Oberoi Zahra, the most exclusive vessel on the Nile. After settling into your luxury suite and enjoying a gourmet lunch prepared by the ship's renowned chefs, visit the magnificent Philae Temple, rescued from the rising waters of Lake Nasser and reconstructed on Agilkia Island. In the evening, consider the optional Nubian village experience, offering authentic cultural encounters in a private setting.
As your luxury vessel sails northward, visit the unique double temple of Kom Ombo, dedicated to two distinct deities. Return to your cruise for a gourmet lunch while sailing to Edfu, where you'll explore the exceptionally preserved Temple of Horus, one of Egypt's most complete ancient structures. Return to the Oberoi Zahra for an elegant dinner featuring regional specialties and international favorites.
Early risers may opt for a magical hot air balloon experience drifting over Luxor's ancient monuments at dawn (additional charge). After breakfast, explore the Valley of the Kings, where generations of pharaohs prepared for eternity, and the architectural marvel of Queen Hatshepsut's temple. Complete your journey with an optional à la carte lunch at the historic Winter Palace before your private transfer to Luxor Airport for your onward flight.
