The 4-day Nile cruise from Luxor to Aswan with Egypt Gift Tours is 100% recommended
The four-day Nile cruise from Luxor to Aswan with Egypt Gift Tours was beautiful and is 100% recommended. Everything from picking up from Cairo accommodation, arranging flights, tours to the numerous temples such as Karnak Temple, Luxor Temple, Edfu Temple, Abu Simbel Temple and many more, visiting the Valley of the Kings and optionally taking a carriage through the night Luxor were perfectly organized and a wonderful experience. The accommodation on the Ciela was very good and the food was as well. Heba, who organized everything, was always available, answered all questions immediately and took care of all concerns. Our tour guide Hatem was the best tour guide I ever had. His incredible knowledge, enthusiasm and ability to bring us closer to the history of Egypt was incredible. Thank you Heba and Hatem for this wonderful time!

Nile Cruise 5 days and 4 nights+ 4 days and 3 nights in Cairo
Spectacular trip to Egypt, 4 nights by motorboat, with several excursions to the most beautiful and thousand-year-old archaeological sites of Upper Egypt between Luxor and Aswan, stops at Luxor and Karnak temple, Edfu temple, Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut temple and the Colossi of Memnon. We then continue to the Temple of Horus, at sunset visit the temple of Sobek, the crocodile God and related museum. Sailing then continues to Aswan, awake at 3.00 am to move by bus to the magnificent site of Abu Simbel, where you can find the magnificent and imposing Temple carved into the rock E built by Ramses II to honor himself and a smaller, but equally magnificent Temple built by Ramses II in honor of his bride Nefertari, then boat trip with a visit to a Nubian village. To finish the tour in upper Egypt visit the temple of Philae, and visits to the shops of: alabaster processing, papyrus, essences and perfumes and herbal teas / infusions. Then transfer by plane to Cairo, spent 4 wonderful days with a visit to the beautiful Egyptian museum, Saladin citadel, the Coptic part of the city, then the wonderful and amazing Giza plain with the majestic pyramids of Cheops Cheren and Mycerinus, and the enigmatic sphinx, for a fee then buggy ride to the sandy dunes of the Sahara to admire the pyramids from a breathtaking view. To finish the tour with the famous step pyramid of Saqqara and the old capital of Egypt Memphis. To complete the tour of the medieval part of Cairo with a fee and an evening of light and sound games at the Pyramids (evocative and exciting) The local guides are very professional and friendly, speak very good Italian and are very prepared about everything. What about we traveled my wife and I, crowned a dream we had since childhood, the expectations we had of these places were many, and they were fulfilled in a great way. Notes of merit to the motorboat and hotel in Cairo with all its crew and excellent service staff, very kind and helpful, in addition to good cleanliness and great food. Fantastic trip, to try absolutely.

My family and I had a wonderful time onboard the Blue Shadow Nile river boat. The accommodations were excellent and so was the staff. Particularly, Ahmed, our tour guide. He is quite knowledgeable, humorous, and gracious — always offering his assistance wherever needed. Please visit Egypt! The people are as beautiful as the sites.

4 Days 3 Nights Nile Cruise Trip From Luxor to Aswan: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Luxor.
How much does 4 Days 3 Nights Nile Cruise Trip From Luxor to Aswan cost?
+
Prices start at $100 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Luxor usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 4 Days 3 Nights Nile Cruise Trip From Luxor to Aswan take?
+
Plan for about 96 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Luxor is not rushed.
Is 4 Days 3 Nights Nile Cruise Trip From Luxor to Aswan worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 72 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 9 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Luxor, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 4 Days 3 Nights Nile Cruise Trip From Luxor to Aswan?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 4 Days 3 Nights Nile Cruise Trip From Luxor to Aswan suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 96-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 4 Days 3 Nights Nile Cruise Trip From Luxor to Aswan?
+
Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Luxor can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Luxor and add a light layer if any part of the 96-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 4 Days 3 Nights Nile Cruise Trip From Luxor to Aswan start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Luxor within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Luxor?
+
On Outty we rank every Luxor experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private Half Day Luxor Tour Valley of Kings & Queens, Hatshepsut, Full Day Tour to East and West Banks of Luxor (Private), Full Day Tour of Luxor private. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Luxor?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Luxor?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
