Steigenberger Senator

Arrive in Luxor and board your Nile cruise before lunch. After settling in, join your guide to visit the expansive Karnak Temple, famous for its ancient columns and stonework. Continue to Luxor Temple, elegantly linked to Karnak by the historic Avenue of Sphinxes. Return to the ship for dinner and your first evening on the Nile.

Following breakfast, venture to the West Bank to see the tombs of the Valley of the Kings, the impressive Hatshepsut Temple, and the iconic Colossi of Memnon. Return to the ship for lunch, then sail toward Edfu via Esna Lock. Spend the afternoon relaxing with tea on the sundeck, and enjoy the Captain’s cocktail reception before dinner.

After breakfast, visit Edfu’s Temple of Horus, one of the best-preserved temples from the Ptolemaic era. Cruise onward to Kom Ombo and enjoy lunch onboard. In the afternoon, explore the dual temple complex of Kom Ombo, dedicated to Sobek and Horus, and learn about ancient healing practices. Sail on toward Aswan, with a festive Galabeya Party to end the evening.

Start your day with a hearty breakfast and a guided visit to Aswan’s highlights: the modern High Dam, the Unfinished Obelisk, and the beautiful island temple of Philae. After lunch, take a traditional felucca ride to the Botanical Gardens. Conclude the day with dinner and a Nubian cultural show onboard.

Savor a final breakfast on the Steigenberger Senator before disembarking in Aswan. Assistance is provided for your onward travel plans as your Nile cruise adventure concludes.
