River Nile Reopens Between Cairo And Luxor - Cairo to Aswan Cruise
Good news for Nile cruise lovers and tourists to Egypt as the portion of Egypt's Lower Nile River, between Cairo and Luxor, has re-opened to cruise vessels after over 16 years. This means that tourists can now sail all the way from Cairo to Aswan.
Online, June 11, 2013 (Newswire.com) - The stretch of the Nile was originally closed due to security concerns and unpredictable water levels in the 1980s but has recently been opened for cruise ships to sail down again.
Nile Cruise.com is offering its customers a unique experience to sail between Luxor and Cairo when its vessel HS Nile Vision makes the return trip to Cairo to start the long cruise programme in September. This is a unique opportunity as the offer is for one date only on Tuesday the 27th of August and is not to be missed! The cruise will include 7 days accommodation on Full Board or All Inclusive, transfers and an amazing 17 excursions all accompanied by an English speaking Egyptologist.
As many of the ancient sites and temples en route were previously very difficult to access when this section of the river was closed, this is a great chance for lovers of Egypt to soak in even more of its rich history and culture. The itinerary includes visits to Luxor Temple, Karnak Temple, Valley of the Kings, Valley of the Queens, Temple of Hatshepsut, Colossi of Memnon, Dendarah Temple, Abydos Temple, Tel Amarna, Beni Hassan, Tuna El Gabel, Cairo Museum, Citadel, Khan El Khalili Bazaar, Pyramids, Sphinx and Sakkara Step Pyramid.
Be one of the first to travel down a section of the Nile that has been closed for over a decade in style on the HS Nile Vision.
Prices for the special sailing from Luxor to Cairo on the 27th August 2013 start from £1139 per person and include seven nights Full Board on HS Nile Vision, return flights London Heathrow/Luxor and Cairo/London Heathrow, all transfers, taxes and fuel surcharge. All Inclusive is available at £90.00 per person supplement.
