The sailing
Upstream, the unhurried way
The longer sailing, and the better one if you only do this once. Luxor gets two days instead of one — the East Bank on arrival, the whole West Bank the next morning — and Aswan gets a full day at the end rather than an afternoon.
Going upstream is slower, which is the point: more of the sailing happens in daylight, and you spend it on the sun deck watching the bank rather than sleeping through it.

Before you book
Questions we are asked most
What time do we board, and what time do we leave?
Check-in opens at noon on the day of departure and cabins are ready from 14:00. Lunch is served on board on embarkation day. Disembarkation is after breakfast, by 09:00, on the last morning — we can hold your luggage at reception if your flight is later.
Is the excursion programme included, and is it optional?
Every site listed in the day-by-day is included: the guide, the transfers and the entrance tickets. You are free to skip any of them and stay on board. The only paid extras are Abu Simbel, the Luxor balloon, and the separately ticketed tombs in the Valley of the Kings.
Can you arrange flights and airport transfers?
Yes. Tell us your arrival airport and we will quote the domestic flight and a private transfer to the ship. Airport meet-and-greet is included with any transfer we arrange.
Do you take single travellers and families?
Both. Single occupancy carries a supplement rather than a share arrangement — you get the cabin to yourself. Connecting cabins on the main deck work well for families, and children under six travel free sharing with two adults.
What are the meals like, and can you handle dietary requirements?
Full board: open buffet at breakfast and lunch, and a set menu with three choices at dinner, served in one sitting so nobody eats late. Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and kosher-style requests are all fine — tell us at least 48 hours before departure.
Is there Wi-Fi on board?
Free Wi-Fi in the public areas. It runs on the mobile network, so it is good in Aswan and Luxor and patchy on the stretch between Edfu and Esna. Egyptian SIM cards are inexpensive if you need something more reliable.
