On this amazing eight-day cruise you will start at the East Bank in Luxor. Visit the magical Karnak Temples, the most massive religious structure in the world and which covers an area of about 60 acres. The Temples can be viewed as a history book, explaining the history of Egypt from the Middle Kingdom to the Ptolemaic period. The Temples at Karnak were dedicated to the God Amon-re, his consort Mut and their son Khonsu.

Your next stop will be the West Bank where you will explore the majestic necropolis of the Valley of the Kings. Here you will learn about the Pharaohs and their ancient beliefs about the afterlife at this fantastic site where 63 tombs were discovered.

Your guided tour will continue to theTemple of Queen Hatshepsut who was the 1st Queen in history. She played an essential role in ancient Egyptian history and ruled for approximately 21 years. Queen Hatshepsut was also the first Queen to send a diplomatic expedition to the land of Punt (Somalia). During your tour, you will discover that she left many monuments as her legacy.

Next on your itinerary will be the two Colossi of Memnon where legend has it that after the famous War of Troy, people would hear a sad voice coming from the statues. However: in later years, it was discovered that this phenomenon was the result of friction between air and tiny holes from inside the figures. Once the sculptures were restored, the voices disappeared.

Visit the beautiful Edfu Temple before sailing to Al Ramady Island.

Enjoy seeing the views in Egypt from the water as you will sail past Al Ramaday Island on your way to Aswan.

Our guide contributed enormously to our newfound love of tour. He not only explained in detail and in an interesting way about everything, but he also provided us with incredibly useful information about the rest of the city and it's many points of interest. We are definitely returning with my son and his family next year.
