However, you might not be aware that Egypt is also famous for its holiday resorts – and our luxury Nile cruises are the perfect way to enjoy one of the most “holiday friendly” destinations on the entire planet.
Cairo
Cairo is perhaps the most famous destination in the whole of Egypt, and our Nile cruise deals that takes in Cairo are surely going to be a holiday to remember, as not only is Cairo a cultural hub, but it is also a historical hub, and home to some great 3 star to 5 star resorts – a must see for fans of ancient history and luxury alike.
Luxor
If you want to surround yourself in all things Ancient Egyptian, then you won’t do much better than a trip to Luxor – known as the greatest open air museum in the word. Why not combine a trip to such a magical location with a Nile cruise and stay – and experience ancient history as though it were alive today!
Other Destinations
Whilst Luxor and Cairo might lay claim to be the most popular holiday destinations in Egypt, there are plenty of other great resorts – each combining different qualities to offer thoroughly unique experiences.

A river Nile cruise promises to offer an experience that is truly memorable, or should that be “experiences” that are truly memorable? A Nile cruise holiday will take in a diversity of memorable sights and sounds – both cultural, historical and natural.
As Egyptian civilization essentially grew up around the Nile, it is no surprise that Egypt is home to some truly exhilarating water-based activities. For example, at most resorts in Egypt you will find diving schools – for every ability, which makes Egypt and a Nile cruise holiday the perfect vacation for anyone with even a passing interest in water sports.
Whilst the Nile is home to a wealth of hidden gems that you’ll just have to discover once you get there, it is also home to some more familiar treasures. Notable amongst these are the treasures of Tutankhamun found in the the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, a must see for anyone with even a passing interest in ancient history.
The beauty about taking an egypt nile cruise is that not only do you get to see one of the most vibrant holiday destinations in the world – Egypty – but you get to see it in style, on a river Nile cruise that is both steeped in luxury and Egyptian glamour.
So why not take a holiday that stands head and shoulders above the usual kind of holiday in the sun – with a stunning Nile cruise!

On the one hand the desert has a pretty bad reputation, and it is a synonym for words like barren and emptiness; however, in reality the desert is much more than this. Around the Nile in particular the desert really comes alive – offering everything from natural beauty to stunning cultural landmarks.
Egypt is unique in that the traces of its ancient history are there for everyone to see. Therefore no nile river cruise would be complete without taking in the stunning landmarks of one of the most sophisticated and significant civilizations that has ever existed. The experience can be much more than aesthetic, and there is even the chance to crawl in an authentic pyramid.
Whilst there are the traces of an ancient culture to be rediscovered, there is also a vibrant contemporary culture in Egypt – and what could be a better way to explore it than with a nile cruise holiday? What could be more exhilarating than spending the day in some of Egypt’s most vibrant markets and bazaars?
Egypt can also be a hugely fulfilling “traditional” holiday, with some of the most remarkable beaches and resorts on the whole planet – and of course, the climate is pretty much impeccable.
In fact, a nile cruise holiday is a distinctly luxury way to holiday. You’ll be bedazzled not only by the stunning Nile and its impeccable surrounds, but also by the Nile cruise ship itself and the 5 star service.

Trivia buffs should be well familiar with the Nile, as it is perhaps the most record breaking body of water on the planet. This makes a Egypt Nile cruise and stay the perfect holiday for anyone that appreciates the very best the world has to offer – both in terms of the Nile itself, and its truly unique cultural and physical surrounds.
The most familiar fact about the Nile is that it is the longest river in the world – this is no mean feat and when we consider how long the Amazon is. However, when we consider that the Nile winds its way through several African countries – from Ethiopia to The Sudan, then it is easy to see why.
The fact that the Nile is the longest river on the planet is only one reason why the Nile can be considered truly special, and by choosing a Nile cruise and stay you will be holidaying in a location that has a diversity of qualities – and serves a range of terrains.
For example, on a Nile river cruise you will encounter a real diversity of wildlife – everything from Ibises to water buffalo – which makes it a great location for anyone who appreciates the natural world. However, in places it is also a distinctly modern place and the Aswan High Dam is well worth visiting if you want to see the best that modern engineering has to offer alongside ancient history.
