Soleil Nile Cruise Egypt

A Luxurious Way to Sail the Nile

If you’re looking for a luxury Nile cruise that blends comfort, culture, and adventure, the Soleil Nile Cruise Egypt is the perfect choice. Offered through Pyramids Day Tour, this 5-star deluxe cruise is available for 3, 4, or 7 nights—sailing between Aswan and Luxor, two of Egypt’s most historic cities. Whether you’re starting your journey from Cairo or already in Upper Egypt, this cruise can be added seamlessly to your Egypt tour package or included in your Cairo Day Tours.

Why Choose Soleil Nile Cruise?

Unlike standard cruises, the Soleil Nile Cruise focuses on a more personalized experience. It includes daily guided excursions to some of the most important temples and landmarks in Egypt. In addition, the cruise offers onboard entertainment, optional hot air balloon rides, and access to Nubian culture, all while sailing in a modern, fully equipped vessel.

Moreover, you can begin your cruise every Friday from Aswan (3 or 7 nights) or Monday from Luxor (4 or 7 nights). This flexibility makes it easy to integrate into your itinerary no matter where you start your journey.

Itinerary Highlights

Let’s explore what a typical cruise includes, depending on your selected duration.

3-Night Itinerary (Aswan to Luxor – Fridays)

Your journey begins with check-in by noon in Aswan. On the first day, after a welcome lunch onboard, you’ll enjoy a tour of the Aswan Natural Reserve and a visit to a traditional Nubian House. That evening, you can relax with entertainment onboard.

The next day features a visit to the Philae Temple, followed by sailing to Kom Ombo, where you’ll explore the twin temple of Sobek and Horus. Afterward, the ship continues to Edfu.

On the third day, you’ll visit Edfu Temple by horse-drawn carriage before sailing to Luxor. Upon arrival, you’ll explore the Karnak and Luxor Temples, guided by a licensed Egyptologist. Finally, your tour ends on Monday with an optional hot air balloon ride and visits to the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut Temple, and the Colossi of Memnon.

4-Night Itinerary (Luxor to Aswan – Mondays)

Starting in Luxor, this itinerary includes guided visits to Karnak and Luxor Temples on the first day. The following morning, you may opt for a hot air balloon ride before visiting the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut Temple, and Colossi of Memnon.

You’ll then sail to Edfu, visit Edfu Temple, and continue to Kom Ombo, where you’ll explore the famous double temple. Eventually, the cruise arrives in Aswan, where you’ll visit Philae Temple, tour the Aswan Natural Reserve, and enjoy time in a Nubian village.

Optional visit to Abu Simbel is available on Friday morning before disembarkation.

7-Night Cruise (Round Trips from Luxor or Aswan)

If you prefer a more relaxed pace with extra time at each site, the 7-night Soleil Nile Cruise is ideal. You’ll cover the same major stops but with additional leisure and sightseeing built into the schedule. Starting from Luxor or Aswan, these longer journeys allow for deeper cultural experiences and extra amenities onboard.
