🛶 Cruise The Nile In Royal Style

Dinner Cruise tour at night on the Nile River from Cairo

Nov 2, 2025

There’s a river that carried the lifeblood of one of history’s greatest civilizations — and now it beckons you. At Egypt Excursions Online, we invite you to embark on a Nile River cruise like royalty, weaving together luxury, culture, and awe-inspiring sights.

Set Sail on Egypt’s Ancient Highway

For millennia, the Nile has been Egypt’s highway — the ribbon of life threading through desert sands. Today, you can retrace the journeys of pharaohs and traders aboard a traditional felucca or aboard a five-star cruiser complete with elegant cabins, gourmet dining, and panoramic sun decks. As the gentle current carries you downstream, every bend reveals a new wonder.

Temples by Twilight

One of the most magical moments on a Nile cruise comes at dusk. Imagine stepping ashore in Kom Ombo, where the twin temples of Sobek and Horus cast long, mysterious shadows in the fading light. Or picture yourself wandering through the columns of Edfu’s Temple of Horus as the sun dips below the horizon, painting the sky in brilliant oranges and purples. Our expert guides bring these monuments to life, sharing ancient myths and architectural secrets that you won’t find in any guidebook.

Luxury Meets Authenticity

Onboard amenities rival those of top resorts: plush lounges for evening cocktails, spa treatments with views of the riverbank, and sun decks where you can soak up the Egyptian sun. Yet our cruises never lose touch with the authentic. Our chefs craft dishes that blend international flavor with traditional Egyptian ingredients — think koshari with a modern twist, or freshly caught Nile perch paired with local herbs.

Shore Excursions Tailored to You

Whether you’re a history buff eager to explore the Valley of the Kings in Luxor, a photography enthusiast hunting for the perfect sunset shot, or a foodie keen on a street-market tasting tour, our shore excursions are fully customizable. Take a hot-air balloon ride at dawn over the West Bank, sip mint tea with a Nubian family in Aswan, or wander through vibrant bazaars brimming with spices, textiles, and handcrafted souvenirs.
