Take a relaxing cruise up the Nile between the two main cities of ancient Nubia on our four-day tour of Upper Egypt. The first two days of our tour are spent in Luxor, exploring the magnificent Nubian temples and sculptures. We then board a cruise liner and set sail south towards Aswan. On the way we stop off at Edfu and Kom Ombo, two Nubian temples on the banks of the Nile. We spend the final day in Aswan, visiting the Aswan High Dam and the Temple of Philae.
