The only thing I would change is that the first day - coming right after most people had taken trans-oceanic flights and still had jet lag - was too demanding (flying to Luxor, touring Karnak before checking into ship). It would have been better to have a lighter Day One to allow for rest and time zone adjustment, and do Karnak on the way back.
The all-women's tour group and the Tour Director were outstanding and hugely enhanced the experience.
Tipping became a constant irritant and would be better if Tour Director handled tips and Insight appropriately raised the package cost, to alleviate that daily chore (ensuring correct currency & denominations, ATM visits, etc.). PS - bring American dollars in small bills.
Overall, a fascinating country, knowledgeable and constantly helpful Tour Director, and a good balance of historic and current experiences. Aswan (and the Cataract Hotel) was a definite highlight, and don't pass on Abu Simbel. It is worth the cost; as is the Aswan boat tour of the Nile (two options worth doing).
Embark on a Nile cruise and immerse yourself in the wonders of ancient Egypt. Witness the breathtaking beauty of the Nile River as you sail from Luxor to Aswan, passing by iconic landmarks and picturesque landscapes. Explore legendary temples such as Karnak Temple and Luxor Temple in Luxor, where history comes alive through intricate hieroglyphics and grand architecture. Discover the Valley of the Kings, where pharaohs were laid to rest in elaborate tombs filled with treasures.
As you journey towards Aswan, visit Edfu Temple and Kom Ombo Temple, each offering a unique glimpse into Egypt's rich past. Marvel at the stunning scenery along the river, with golden sunsets casting a magical glow over the water. Indulge in luxurious accommodations and gourmet dining on board, where every moment is a blend of relaxation and adventure.
Immerse yourself in Egyptian culture through traditional music and dance performances, and enrich your knowledge with insightful lectures on the history and significance of the sites you explore. Whether you're seeking cultural enrichment, historical intrigue, or simply a serene escape, a Nile cruise from Luxor to Aswan promises an unforgettable experience that will leave you with memories to cherish for a lifetime.
