- Do you want to know if sailing down the Nile is worth the trip? Definitely!!
This is a 5 days Nile River Cruise with visits to Karnak and Luxor Temples, the Valley of the Kings, Edfu and Philae Temples and a Nubian Village. All of this onboard of an amazing boat!
The best Nile cruise!

stunningly gorgeous
As a Canadian tourist in 1989 I had the thrill of visiting Kamak and Luxor Temples and the Valley of the Kings
Truly excellent commentary, very clear .. your English is very good
Thank you! That is very kind of you!
Excellent vlog 👌 voice is very sweet 😋
Thank you!
I did the same trip in December last year. The weather was perfect and it included a stop at Kom Ombo temple and an excursion to Abu Simbel
Very interesting video with these attractive tourist destinations!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
As a previous traveller to Luxor and the Valley of the Kings as well as the cruise to Aswan, I can thoroughly recommend this tour. One suggestion, choose a tour when the daytime temperatures are milder as it can be very hot in the height of summer.
So true. I did mine very early in the morning.
We sailed the Nile river for 10 days….
This was fun, thank you!
Beautiful video.. very informative.. thank you 🙏
Good job I enjoyed it. It’s a bucket list trip February 2024 I hope.
Lovely cruise, thank you. My son & his wife are over there now doing this same cruise, so it was nice to see what they are seeing.
Hope they love it as much as I did!
Beautiful #Egypt #nileriver #cruise #Luxor #Aswan #history #temples #museums #sunny #fun #travel #enjoy, Thanks
This is very historic and amazing! Definitely a mystery , how they carved through rock and made smooth surfaces . The Egyptians are advanced.
My thoughts exactly while I was there! There’s no comparison with today’s world.
Many thanks
Awesome
What a magnificent civilisation! Did Rome really outdo it..
Great video. I am excited to go next Jauary. (hoping for a bit cooler weather)
You will love it, for sure! I went there in August and it was above 40°C but it was fine! Early visits in the morning and pool in the afternoon!
Illuminated Luxor Governorate, welcome to Egypt
We were there two months ago.
Oh lovely very good post 📫 very nice 👌 explained...thnks...
Thank you for your kind words!
You are welcome ❤❤❤❤❤❤any time
Very nice video! information given is gold! BTW the 90USD for the boat trip was for the whole 5 days?
Hi. I have another video where I have the prices for this year. But the 5 days, full board, with tickets and transport to the temples is about 500$ per person.
Loved the video. You uploaded this 2 months ago but what are the dates you were actually there. Me and my wife plan on going around the end of Oct. We are doing the same cruise. From Luxor to Aswan. This will be our first time going to Egypt. You flew into Cairo and then took a plan from Cairo to Egypt. Do you suggest a certain plan over another. Did you fly to Luxor the same day you landed or did you fly the following day. If you stayed over night can you recommend a hotel. Should we stay in at the airport hotel or get one downtown. I am not sure if you did other videos. Did you get Egyptian pounds at the airport or before you flew into Cairo? What about SIM cards. Did you get one there or you used your own carrier? I am flying from the US to Cario and not sure the best or most comfortable plan to take. I have so many other questions, but I am going to leave it there. If anyone that reads this can give me some insight I would appreciate it. We plan on spending a day or two before and after the cruise in Cairo. If anyone can suggest hotels, modes of travels, should I contact someone in Cairo to help facilitate our stay. Sort of light tour guides. Thanks in advance.
Lots of questions! So, I flew to Cairo where I spent 3 nights. If you want to see the Pyramids and some museums, you should spend a couple of days here. I stayed in a hotel in the city, but now I would book Le Meridien at the airport. I had lunch there before going home, it's a nice hotel, with a great pool and good food. Besides, you can book a driver at the hotel that will take you anywhere. It's safer to travel the city. I paid 50$ for one day. I took an old phone with me and bought a SIM card at the airport, so I had 2 phones. And I exchanged money there as well. There are hotels where you can exchange money too. I then flew from Cairo to Luxor on the 5am plane. It takes about one hour.
Feel free to ask more!
Loved it! Thank you for your insights. How was it so empty when you visited and nut crowded? What month did u go? :)
I went in August which is not peak season and always arrived there very early.
Would you recommend nubian village dinner ? How was your experience
I enjoyed walking around the village but I didn’t eat there, so I can’t tell you about the food. We had some refreshments in a small café which was nice. Just be careful with what you eat and drink outside the hotels and boats. You can easily get sick.
H!! Where did you book this? Looks awesome :)
It was awesome! I booked it directly at a local agent - Imperial Egypt. You can check it here: ua-cam.com/video/cO5sqUIn388/v-deo.html
How did you book your cruise? Did you book it via a website? Or did you book it from Egypt?
Hi! It was through an Egyptian agent, Imperial Egypt. I explain everything here: ua-cam.com/video/cO5sqUIn388/v-deo.html
Thanks you so much, I have seen the video 😍
Everything was wonderful! I’m going back in 2024 to see the new museum!
We are going this year, hopefully in October fingers crossed, enjoy your trip. Please keep this up, your video was very helpful and I learned so much. If you have any tips, please spill 😅
What is the name of the cruise ship you were on?
It was the MS Amwaj, they called it the Livingstone.
@@theusualtraveller I'll be on the M/S Nile Dolphin in September 2023.
Some of these boats charge $1,000 a day per person.
That’s true. But there are many affordable options. We just need to choose carefully.
Thinking of a 7 night cruise but it's priced at £2000 including flights, not sure if this is too high
Is that a travel agency price? I never book flights + accommodation with agencies. I book them separately by myself.
@@theusualtraveller yeah that's via a travel agent, I'm sure it could be a lot cheaper doing it separately?
It’s cheaper, for sure. It also depends on when you want to go. I booked my trip 6 months before. I paid about 2600€ for flights, 5-days cruise and 3 nights in Cairo for 2 people.
@@theusualtraveller ah ok, yeah I was only booking for late August this year so quite short notice but off season. Finding it hard to get a good deal and sort out flights
@@theusualtraveller did you also find it easy to book entrance to the attractions or is it included in the cruise?
I’ll be 65 do you think we’re too old for this confusion?
Not at all. Doing the Nile cruise is quite relaxing. You visit the temples early in the morning for 2/3 hours and get back to the boat for lunch. After lunch we sail, so you rest at the pool or in your cabin. This was the first vacation where I took naps!
You’re still young. We fun this exact trip mid 1980s
And didn't visit the pyramids????
Yes, I did. This video is only about the Nile cruise. It would make it too long to talk about Cairo, but I will!
Yeah the French stole that from Egypt. Let's say it how it is.
Who cares? Not stolen, conquered.
Actually that particular one was not stolen. The Egyption government at that time gifted it to France in exchange of a huge clock at Mohamed Ali Mosque at the citadel
The entire British Museum is stuffed with looted artifacts
@@kellybrown8638 not looted, found and preserved...the British are heros of humankind for saving and preserving human history because we all know the Egyptians were ransacking ancient Egyptain treasures and selling them to the highest bidder....shit, they would even grind up mummies and sell them as a cure--all medical treatment....THANK GOD for West Europeans for preserving this history!
Totally illegal behavior.I hope you realize you still will be punished. Many places would evict you for stealing part of their heritage. To steal a piece of the Valley of the Kings! Karma.
Well, that stone is not heritage. It was literally picked from the side of the road and I asked a guard if I could do it. History is my life. I understand more about the protection of the heritage than many.
@@theusualtraveller Glad you asked for permission. People here warn tourist about how offensive locals find the concept. If every tourist took 1 shell home? The aina is their ancestors. I simply cannot believe how tourism in Egypt has changed since I visited Luxor in 1966. ⭐️
