And not only this, but you will also get to benefit from the expertise of an Egyptologist whenever you enter into such things as the temples at Luxor and Karnak, the attractions on the West Bank and the city of Aswan.

This means you will get the upmost from your explorations and will come back considerably more knowledgeable on the subject.

Not only this, but your entrance fees to most such areas are included in your vacation package, meaning you don’t have to worry as much about budgeting.

So, if you are planning to visit Egypt, you should seriously consider a Nile Cruise.

New Year’s Resolution: River Nile Cruise

Saturday, January 1st, 2011

With Christmas gone, but the cold weather sticking around, you may be in need of something new to focus on, the next thing to look forward to. All January, harsh and disciplinary New Year’s resolutions are bounding around: get more exercise, watch less TV, stop smoking. This year, instead of punishing yourself with cold weather and harsh pledges to do this less and do this more, why not try something positive and life-changing as your New Year’s resolution? Why not go somewhere new, somewhere that you have always dreamed of visiting?

A Nile cruise holiday could be just the thing, providing a beautiful getaway and a wonderful experience. With the fantastic offers available from River Nile Cruise, it couldn’t be easier to make this dream come true.

Whichever is your idea of a holiday, the experiences you are longing for can be found on a Nile cruise holiday.

Be on the Nile not in Denial

Monday, November 1st, 2010

Like with any cruise, a Nile Cruise ship can come in many shapes and sizes. When you first arrive, there is a good chance you will be lead down to the dock to see row upon row of river boats that display opulence, beauty and a grand facade that will get even the most imperturbable people a little excited.

For many though, they will be led down to a grand Nile Cruise ship, festooned in beauty and led inside where they will find marble pillars and grand, ornate staircases. From here, they will be led right out the other side to what appears to be an awaiting raft moored alongside, but what is actually their boat and home for the next week.

With a swimming pool that can be crossed in one small step and a bedroom that encourages sleeping like a foetus, it can be a crushing disappointment after the splendour they have just witnessed, and the opposite of the luxury Nile Cruise they might have been expecting.

However, it doesn’t have to be like that. The ships at www.rivernilecruise.com are all of the highest calibre, ranging from big and beautiful budget boats to luxury cruise liners that would put even the best five star hotels to shame.

When you book a luxury Nile Cruise through us, you can be sure that you know exactly what you are getting and that when you are lead into that first luxurious reception hall, you will be staying just there and holidaying in lavish surroundings on the Nile.

What is There to Do in the Desert?

Friday, October 22nd, 2010

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.

Plenty to Do in Cairo

Thursday, September 30th, 2010

There is a whole range of things to see and do when on a Nile cruise and stopping off in Cairo is highly recommended.

Although it may mean temporarily sacrificing the comfort of your Nile cruise ship, the effort will be worth it.

While staying in the pumping heart of Egypt – which has been at the centre of life in the nation since farmers began settling on the banks of the Nile where it swells near the city – it is definitely worth taking a trip to the pyramids.

However, the fun does not stop there and there are a plethora of other activities guaranteed to keep you and the rest of your travelling party entertained.

You should leave at least a day or two in the area so you can make the most of much of what it has to offer.

If you fancy some retail therapy, why not head down the Sharia Khayamiya – or the Street of the Tentmakers. You’re bound to find a bargain or two to take back to your Nile cruise ship.

And once you have worked up an appetite, you can find some tasty offerings in the form of stalls that line the lanes of Cairo’s Islamic quarter – as well as many other vendors located across the city.

Historic mosques are also on view and it is possible to explore cultural highlights such as the Egyptian Museum.

By the time you restart your Nile cruise, you’ll certainly have plenty of stories to tell your fellow passengers!
