An Egypt tour with a Nile cruise joins the two halves of the country into one trip: the pyramids, the Sphinx and the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, then the temples of Upper Egypt from the deck of a five-star ship. Everything in between — internal flights, hotels, transfers, guides and entry tickets — is arranged in advance, so you never spend a morning working out how to get to the next city.
We build these packages ourselves. Nile Cruise Trips is a licensed Egyptian operator (ETAA) running the river since 2009, so the cruise portion is booked directly with the ship rather than through a broker, and the Cairo days are handled by our own guides and drivers. That means one point of contact, one price, and someone reachable on WhatsApp for the whole journey.
Optional extras — a hot-air balloon over Luxor, Abu Simbel, or a Red Sea extension — can be added to any itinerary. Inclusions and exclusions are always listed plainly, and our pricing policy sets out child rates and what isn’t covered.
Eight days is the classic length: three or four nights in Cairo and a 4-night Luxor–Aswan cruise. Ten to twelve days lets you add Abu Simbel, Lake Nasser or the Red Sea without rushing. Shorter trips are possible if you fly straight to Luxor and cruise from there.
Any of them. Package pricing follows the cruise tier you choose, from Standard 5★ up to ultra-luxury — so you can spend more on the boat and less on hotels, or the other way round.

We’re rated a perfect 5.0 on Tripadvisor — here’s what guests say after sailing the Nile with us.
We've taken many trips but nothing compares to this. Abu Simbel and Hatshepsut were breathtaking, and the balloon ride over Luxor was unforgettable. Every detail was handled.
Ahmed was an incredible guide and the ship was spotlessly clean. Everything ran perfectly from start to finish — we couldn't have asked for more on our first Nile cruise.
We had a fantastic time thanks to Mona, and our guide Amir was brilliant. We left Egypt with a new friend. Genuinely the trip of a lifetime for the whole family.
