Continue to the Crocodile Museum, where mummified crocodiles once worshiped in ancient times are displayed. After the visit, return to the ship for lunch and continue sailing toward Edfu.

After breakfast, disembark for a short horse-drawn carriage or tuk-tuk ride to Edfu Temple, one of the best-preserved temples in Egypt and dedicated to the falcon god Horus. Your guide will highlight the temple's remarkably intact reliefs, towering pylons, and inner sanctuary before you return to the ship. Enjoy lunch as the cruise continues sailing toward Luxor. The ship typically arrives in Luxor during the afternoon or evening, and depending on the arrival time, you'll visit Luxor Temple, beautifully illuminated after dark along the Nile Corniche.

Continue to the Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el-Bahari, the striking terraced mortuary temple built into the cliffs for one of ancient Egypt's most powerful female pharaohs.
