Nile - Nile Cruises
- Overview
The Nile. Overview. Cruise type.
There are many different holidays combining a River Nile Cruise. The Nile is an extra special holiday full of brilliant historic places, such as the Pyramids and the Sphinx .The skill, mathematics, structure, the huge volume of manual labour, and the sheer willpower of the Egyptian Royal Family’s belief in its own immortality thousands of years ago, defies logic. They were geniuses of architecture, construction and town planning all those thousands of years ago. The visits to Cairo are normally based on Gaza, to the South East of the city where the Pyramids and the Sphinx are. Cruises also offer visits to temple complexes of Luxor and Karnack. Some cruises also sail via the river lock at Esna and Edfu. You can cruise from Aswan to Abu Simbel to see the beautiful desert landscapes, particularly sunrises and sunsets. This allows visits to temples and sights only accessible by water.
