Cairo-to-Luxor Section of Nile River Re-opened to Travelers

Cairo-to-Luxor Section of Nile River Re-opened to Travelers
Until recently it was only possible to cruise along the Upper Nile, between Luxor and Aswan (and vice versa); but now travelers can embark on an extended adventure from Cairo.

Discover Egypt's 14-night journey on board the 30-cabin Alexander the Great yacht taking passengers from Cairo to Aswan via Luxor with excursions to some of the country's best sights.

Before boarding the luxury vessel, guests have time to explore Cairo, visiting Ancient Egypt's iconic landmarks, The Great Pyramid, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and the Sphinx. A trip to the Egyptian Museum gives guests the chance to read up on the fascinating history of the capital.
