Indulge in a relaxed morning meal while aboard your cruise ship, then get ready for an expedition to Luxor's western bank.     
Commence by entering the Valley of the Kings, a domain of opulent tombs where the pharaohs rest and their legacies are immortalized through hieroglyphs on ancient walls. Your Egyptologist guide, a contemporary interpreter of these celestial visions, will recount tales of ancient monarchs from bygone eras, their triumphs and aspirations for immortality— all enshrined in the Valley.     
Next, climb the terraces of the exquisite architectural marvel known as Hatshepsut's Temple, which was carved into the cliffs. Experience the warmth of the desert heat; touch the very places where the "Female Pharaoh" defied societal expectations, governing with intelligence and grace. Marvel at the expansive vista that stretched out in front of her and allow the reverberations of her rule to take you centuries into the past.     
Take shelter from the sun's intense heat by finding cover under the protection of two towering guardians that watch over the ancient city of Thebes, known as the Colossi of Memnon. Once you are back on your Nile cruise, embark towards Edfu by passing through the Lock of Esna. Stay in Edfu for one night.     
Optional activity: Sunrise Hot Air Ballooning above Luxor.

 

  • Day 6: Edfu & Kom Ombo Temples

Indulge in a lavish breakfast on the ship; thereafter, go on a horse-drawn carriage and commence your journey under the magnificent sun through the streets towards the Temple of Horus in Edfu. This is an impressive architectural marvel from the Greco-Roman era, considered one of the most well-preserved temples in Egypt. Observe the impressive pylons, significant reliefs, and immerse yourself in an enigmatic realm ruled by the falcon-headed deity, Horus.     
Return to your Nile cruise by carriage and continue sailing to Kom Ombo. At this location, you will get the opportunity to explore a distinctive dual temple that is devoted to both the formidable deity Sobek, who is associated with crocodiles, and the celestial god Horus, who is symbolized by a falcon. The walls of the museum display inscriptions depicting heavenly narratives involving various gods.

Commence your day with a delectable breakfast, followed by a drive to Aswan for an exhilarating expedition. Commence with the High Dam, an impressive feat of engineering in the modern period that successfully controlled the flooding of the Nile and provided electricity to numerous Egyptian households. The immense size of this remarkable structure is enough to inspire awe, not to mention the transformative impact its construction had on the surrounding area.     
Afterwards, make a stop at the Unfinished Obelisk, a site showcasing old craftsmanship. The immense edifice remains incomplete and gives the impression of being frozen in time. Contemplate the skilled artisans who were actively engaged in the creation of this monolithic structure, intended to be an enduring symbol, but ultimately left unfinished for reasons that remain unclear.     
Embark on a serene motorboat excursion on the shimmering Nile and uncover the exquisite Temple of Philae, a superb representation of the Ptolemaic era. Initially, the increasing water levels from the High Dam posed a threat of submerging the temple. However, with assistance from UNESCO, the temple was successfully relocated to higher land. Witness the intricate sculptures that resonate with the echoes of the pharaohs in a tangible manner.     
Indulge in a lavish lunch at a nearby restaurant, then proceed to Aswan for your return flight to Cairo, where you will continue your 9-day 2027 Egypt Eclipse Tour with a Nile cruise.
