Cairo to Aswan–Luxor Nile Cruise — 3 Nights by Air
Domestic flights connect Cairo to a three-night scheduled Aswan–Luxor Nile cruise, with privately arranged guiding on shore when confirmed.
About this private journey
Connect Cairo with a three-night Aswan–Luxor Nile sailing, using domestic flights and transfers confirmed for the selected ship. The journey brings together river scenery and temple visits such as Kom Ombo and Edfu, with shore guiding arranged privately where stated in your quote.
The ship and its facilities are shared with other passengers, and docking times govern the sequence of visits. Confirm the named vessel, cabin grade and flight connections before booking. On the final day in Luxor, sightseeing must leave a realistic airport buffer; an early return flight may require a revised visit plan agreed in advance.

Frequently asked questions
Which direction does this cruise sail?
The reference is three nights from Aswan to Luxor, linked to Cairo flights. It is different from a four-night Luxor–Aswan sailing.
Can an early Luxor flight affect the final visits?
Yes. The ship's disembarkation and airport buffer must fit; the visit plan must be revised before booking if the flight leaves too little time.
What makes the booking binding?
Your dated written quotation confirms the route, admissions, transport, accommodation where applicable, cancellation terms and total before payment. Unconfirmed supplier availability is not a reservation.
