Our voyage guides us effortlessly from Cairo to Aswan. Aboard our privately chartered vessel, we navigate this seldom-travelled route accompanied by our own Egyptologist. This comprehensive discovery of Egypt’s history, culture and extraordinary treasures is reserved for 55 guests.
CURATE YOUR CAIRO EXPERIENCE
Enter Chephren Pyramid for a rare look at its inspired structure. Behold the Khufu Ship, once buried next to the pharaoh’s pyramid. Ride around the base of the pyramids aboard a camel. Or enjoy exclusive access to the feet of the Sphinx.
ENGAGING CULTURAL IMMERSIONS
Throughout our journey, we are accompanied by two expert Egyptologists, who deepen our appreciation for this remarkable country. Aboard our privately chartered vessel, we take part in a hieroglyphics class. While our group also enjoys exclusive access to the Egyptian Museum before it opens to the public.
ADMIRE THE EXQUISITE HATHOR TEMPLE
Visit the ancient Temple of Hathor, one of Egypt’s best-preserved sites. Largely built during the Ptolemaic Dynasty, the temple features a wealth of intricate engravings, including likenesses of Cleopatra and her son to Julius Caesar, Caesarion.
LOOK UPON THE TEMPLE OF RAMSES II
At the conclusion of your cruise, join a charter flight to Abu Simbel, where you will come face to face with the awe-inspiring Temple of Ramses II. Pass beneath the four imposing statues of the pharaoh and observe the treasures inside.
