Day 4 - 7:00: Valley of the Kings-the Temple of Hatshepsut and Departure

Optional early morning trip Hot air balloon ride over the West bank of luxor Check out from the cruise after breakfast and start visiting the following sightseeing Valley of the Kings At first glance, the Valley of the Kings, also known as the Valley of the Gates of the Kings, seems like no more than a sun-blasted gorge of generic red rock, but underneath all of its dust lay the tombs of 63 of the most important pharaohs in the history of Ancient Egypt. Used as a burial chamber for nearly 500 years from the 16th to 11th century BC, the Valley of the Kings was used for royal burials for the Kings, their families, and their possessions. In 1979, it became a World Heritage Site, as well as the rest of the Theban Necropolis. Temple of Hatshepsut The mortuary temple of Hatshepsut (c.1478/72-1458 B.C.E.) dates from the New Kingdom. It nestles at the foot of the cliffs in a natural "bay" on the West Bank of Luxor. This area had long been sacred to the goddess Hathor and was the site of the earlier mortuary temple and tomb of King Nebhepetre Mentuhotep (c.2008-1957 B.C.E.) of the Middle Kingdom (ramp visible on the far left). After the introduction of Christianity, Hatshepsut’s temple was used as a monastery, hence its modern name, Deir el-Bahri, Arabic for "Northern Monastery." Colossi of Memnon One of the biggest tourist attractions in Luxor, the Colossi of Memnon gained its popularity due to its majestic appearance and for the mysterious sounds emitted by the northern colossus statue at every sunrise.

FAQs

What is the main difference between a private Nile cruise and a regular one?

private Nile cruise offers a more personalized and exclusive experience. Instead of being part of a large tour group, you will have a private, dedicated Egyptologist guide who can tailor the sightseeing pace to your interests. Transfers are also private, and you have greater flexibility with your schedule. The "private" element typically refers to the guided tours, while the cruise ship itself is a shared 5-star vessel with other guests.

What is a typical itinerary for a 4-day private Nile cruise?
  • Day 1: Arrival in Luxor, transfer to the cruise ship, and tour of the East Bank sites (Karnak and Luxor Temples).

  • Day 2: Tour the West Bank (Valley of the Kings, Temple of Hatshepsut, and Colossi of Memnon). The ship then sails toward Edfu.

  • Day 3: Visit the Temple of Horus at Edfu and the Temple of Kom Ombo. The ship continues to Aswan.

  • Day 4: Tour Aswan's highlights (Aswan High Dam, Philae Temple, and a felucca ride on the Nile). Disembarkation and departure.

What's included in a 5-star private Nile cruise package?
  • Accommodation: Three nights in a deluxe, 5-star cabin on a cruise ship.

  • Meals: Full-board dining (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) with a selection of international and local cuisine.

  • Excursions: All guided tours to the main sites mentioned in the itinerary.

  • Private Guide: The services of a licensed, private Egyptologist guide for all sightseeing excursions.

  • Transfers: Private, air-conditioned vehicle transfers for all tours and from the airport or train station.

Is tipping a significant part of the cost?

Yes, tipping is a standard and expected practice in Egypt. It is generally not included in the tour price. For a 4-day cruise, a common guideline for a private tour is to budget around $10-$15 USD per person per day for the guide and about $3-$5 USD per person per night for the cruise staff (often left as a lump sum at the reception desk at the end of the trip).

Are drinks included on the cruise?

Typically, no. Your meals are included, but beverages like bottled water, soda, juice, and alcoholic drinks are usually an additional cost. The prices for these can be expensive, similar to a hotel minibar.
