The Nile River is one of the most romantic rivers to cruise along in the world.  You can not only float along the stunning river and enjoy the vast open waterway views; you can also see some really beautiful views of the lands along the river, as well as the desert.  You will be traveling at a very relaxing pace; allowing you to see all that you would like to see during your cruise.

The Nile Goddess is a cruise ship that offers many of the luxurious amenities that you are used to seeing on a luxury liner.  You can get a cabin or a presidential suite, or anything in between.  There are onboard meals as well as nightly entertainment for everyone on the ship.  A captain’s welcome and belly dancing performance are also a part of your stay on this ship.  The cruise lasts for five days and four nights and leaves from Luxor and ends in Aswan.  All of the wonderful sites that are located in Upper Egypt are highlighted on this cruise.  You can also choose a round trip cruise that will take you back to Luxor so that you can relax a little longer and see the wonderful sights again on your way back.

The Presidential Nile Cruise ship also leaves from Luxor and also arrives back in Luxor, making this a round trip ship.  You can not only see all of the sights again, but the ship will pass them at a different time of day that on the way there, so it is like seeing them for the first time all over again.  The amenities included on this ship include a five star restaurant, a swimming pool, and English speaking tour guides for all of the sightseeing that you will do while on the cruise.  The rooms range from a regular room to a cabin suite.  The sights are so beautiful that you will most likely spend a minimal amount of time in your room.

The Travcotel cruise line departs from  Aswan and goes to Luxor on a three day cruise.  This cruise is more accommodating to those travelers that would like to take a vacation that is not as long as the other options.  This cruise allows you to see what you want to see along the Nile River while also allowing you to book a shorter vacation or spread your vacation among more than one place.  The amenities that are available on this cruise indulge wi-fi and a fitness room as well as a sauna.  The rooms that are available on this cruise range from just a room to a luxury suite if you prefer to have a more luxurious stay.
