Experience Both Historic Waterways on a 10-Day Double Cruise Expedition

Uncover the complete waterborne heritage of ancient Egypt by combining a classic Nile riverboat voyage with a serene Lake Nasser cruise on our comprehensive 10-Day Nile River and Lake Nasser cruise tour. Designed for dedicated history enthusiasts, this private expedition connects the monumental temples of Upper Egypt with the remote, rock-hewn sanctuaries of Nubia in a seamless dual-waterway journey.

Transitioning to a second specialized vessel in Aswan, you will glide across Lake Nasser past rescued monuments like Kalabsha, Wadi el-Sebua, Amada, and the breathtaking colossal temples of Ramses II at Abu Simbel.
