  Itinerary


  1. Day 01: Embarkation and the Great Temples of Abu Simbel

    Day 01: Embarkation and the Great Temples of Abu Simbel Your unforgettable Prince Abbas Nile Cruise begins in Abu Simbel. Our representative will meet you at your accommodation in Abu Simbel or at the airport and transfer you directly to the luxurious Lake Nasser cruise ship for embarkation and check-in at 1:00 PM. After settling into your five-star surroundings, you'll be served lunch onboard. The afternoon features a guided tour of the awe-inspiring Abu Simbel Temples. Built by Pharaoh Ramesses II (1303–1213 B.C.) on the west bank of the Nile, these two temples are among Egypt's most famous ancient sites. Their story is one of modern triumph: after the decision to build the Aswan High Dam, the temples were meticulously dismantled and reassembled in 1968 on a desert plateau, 64 meters (200 feet) above and 180 meters (600 feet) west of their original flooded location. This relocation cemented their status as a global heritage miracle. After your amazing visit, you'll return to the cruise for afternoon tea time, a chance to relax and refresh. Dinner will be served onboard, followed by an overnight stay in Abu Simbel. Optional Activity: In the evening, you may choose to attend the fascinating Sound & Light Show at Abu Simbel Temple. This optional experience transports you to the time of the pharaohs, enchanting you with melodious music and projected images that bring the ancient world—and the history of the temples' rescue—to life around you. It's a truly memorable highlight of your Lake Nasser cruise. Meals Included: Lunch, Dinner


  2. Day 02: Citadel View, Amada Temple Complex, and Nubian Night

    Day 02: Citadel View, Amada Temple Complex, and Nubian Night Start your day with breakfast aboard your Prince Abbas Nile Cruise. The ship will then begin an early sail to Kasr Ibrim. This ancient citadel, once a formidable city perched high above the Nile, now appears as an island due to the construction of the Aswan High Dam. You will enjoy a panoramic view of Kasr Ibrim from the sundeck, as entry to the site itself is prohibited by the government. Lunch will be served onboard as you continue your sailing. In the afternoon, you will join your Egyptologist guide for a visit to the Amada Temple complex. This visit includes: Amada Temple: The oldest Egyptian temple in Nubia, originally built by Pharaoh Thutmose III and later enhanced by his successors, Amenhotep II and Thutmose IV. It's renowned for its exquisite and well-preserved reliefs. Exploring the beautiful art within this temple is a core experience of the Lake Nasser cruise. Temple of Derr: A magnificent example of Ramesses II's preferred rock-cut style, this temple is especially unique as it was one of the few ancient structures originally positioned on the Nile’s eastern bank. Tomb of Pennut: A rare sight, this rock-cut tomb belonged to a Viceroy of Kush and, like the nearby temples, was also relocated to save it from the rising waters, making its preservation story particularly fascinating. After a day of exploring these incredible relocated sites, you will return to your cruise ship. The evening will be celebrated with a lively cocktail party followed by a delightful Nubian show onboard. Dinner will be served, and you’ll spend the night as the cruise sails toward Wadi El Seboua. Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner


  3. Day 03: The Valley of the Lions and Sail to Aswan

    Day 03: The Valley of the Lions and Sail to Aswan Enjoy breakfast onboard before an early morning visit to Wadi El Seboua. This area is home to a cluster of magnificent relocated ancient sites, making it an essential stop on the Prince Abbas Nile Cruise. The most famous section is the "Valley of the Lions," a sphinx-lined avenue leading to two New Kingdom temples. You'll explore the main temple, originally built by Ramesses II and dedicated to Amun-Re and Re-Horakhty. While there, you'll also see the Temple of Dakka and the Temple of Maharraqua, all of which were painstakingly moved to their current location. The Lake Nasser cruise provides the ideal access to appreciate these monumental conservation efforts. Following your morning tours, you'll return to the ship for lunch. The afternoon features a long, scenic sail north towards Aswan. As your journey nears its end, you'll reflect on the countless wonders you've witnessed along this extraordinary Lake Nasser cruise. Dinner will be served onboard, with the ship docking and overnighting in Aswan. Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner


  4. Day 04: The Temple of Kalabsha and Final Disembarkation

    Day 04: The Temple of Kalabsha and Final Disembarkation Your final day begins with breakfast onboard. You will then join your Egyptologist for a visit to the Temple of Kalabsha. This is often the concluding stop on the Prince Abbas Nile Cruise from the south. The temple was built near the end of the Ptolemaic Dynasty and completed under the Roman Emperor Augustus, resulting in a fascinating mix of Roman and Egyptian artistry dedicated to the Nubian god Mandulis. It was rescued and moved to its current position, close to the Aswan High Dam, offering a perfect bookend to the journey of relocated monuments. After the visit, you will return to the cruise ship to check out. Our representative will then transfer you from the cruise to your accommodation hotel in Aswan, concluding your historical and luxurious Prince Abbas Nile Cruise 4 Days experience. Meals Included: Breakfast
