4-Day Nile Cruise: Luxor to Aswan
A dedicated Nile cruise, without a Cairo itinerary built around it.
Shore excursions bring temple stone and tomb stairs; the sailing hours between them ask nothing of you at all, with the boat as your base throughout.

For travelers who already have Cairo covered, or who are flying directly into Luxor — a 5-star Nile cruise ship sailing from Luxor to Aswan, with shore excursions to Karnak, Luxor Temple, the Valley of the Kings, Edfu, Kom Ombo, and Philae Temple built into the itinerary.
