How to choose a Nile cruise
Nile cruises usually sail between Luxor and Aswan on three-, four-night or longer itineraries, stopping at Edfu and Kom Ombo, and some pass the Esna lock. A cruise combines rooms, meals and transport: temples by day, river views in the evening, which makes it a good choice for families with older relatives or children. When choosing, look at the ship’s level, cabin side, sailing direction and whether shore visits come with Chinese explanations. Winter and the Chinese New Year period are peak season, so the best ships and cabins go early.
Cruise tips
- Check the direction: Aswan → Luxor or the reverse changes the order of visits.
- Ask whether site tickets are included.
- Some evenings have themed events; pack one smarter outfit.
- Bring your usual medicines.
