Ultra Luxury Jaz Viceroy Nile Cruise

Your luxury voyage aboard the Jaz Viceroy Nile Cruise begins in Luxor, the ancient city of pharaohs. Upon arrival, meet your private Egyptologist guide and set out to explore the magnificent East Bank of Luxor.

Your first stop is the Karnak Temple, an awe-inspiring religious complex that evolved over 2,000 years. Built to honor the Theban Triad—Amun, Mut, and Khonsu, this grand sanctuary showcases colossal columns, towering obelisks, and the famed Avenue of Sphinxes. Walking through its Great Hypostyle Hall, with its 134 giant pillars, is like stepping back into Egypt’s golden age.

After this mesmerizing visit, head to the Jaz Viceroy Nile Cruise, where you’ll check in, settle into your luxurious cabin or suite, and enjoy a gourmet lunch on board.

As night falls, experience Luxor Temple, a magical site that glows under the evening sky. Built by Amenhotep III and expanded by Ramses II, this temple played a crucial role in the Opet Festival, an ancient celebration of kingship and renewal. The illuminated columns and statues make for an unforgettable sight.

Return to your floating palace, enjoy a sumptuous dinner, and prepare for the adventures ahead.

Start your morning with a delicious breakfast on deck before heading to Luxor’s West Bank, where some of the most magnificent tombs and temples await.

Your journey begins at the Valley of the Kings, the legendary burial ground of New Kingdom pharaohs, including Tutankhamun and Ramses II. Hidden beneath the desert hills, these richly decorated tombs hold mesmerizing hieroglyphics and stunningly preserved paintings that narrate the pharaohs' passage to the afterlife.

Next, visit the Temple of Hatshepsut, a masterpiece carved into the limestone cliffs. This striking structure, built by Egypt’s most powerful female ruler, reflects her unwavering legacy and vision. Its colonnaded terraces and divine chapels make it one of Egypt’s most unique temples.

Before returning to your cruise, stop at the Colossi of Memnon, two towering statues of Amenhotep III that have stood as sentinels of Thebes for over 3,000 years.

Back on board, indulge in a fine-dining lunch, then relax on the sun deck or by the pool as the Jaz Viceroy gracefully sails toward Edfu. Enjoy dinner under the stars and a peaceful night onboard.

After a leisurely breakfast, embark on a tour of the Edfu Temple, one of Egypt’s best-preserved sanctuaries. Dedicated to Horus, the falcon-headed god, this grand temple, built during the Ptolemaic era, narrates the mythical battle between Horus and his uncle Seth, the god of chaos. Its massive pylons, detailed inscriptions, and sacred halls transport visitors to an era of divine power.

Return to the cruise and enjoy a relaxing afternoon as the Jaz Viceroy sails south toward Kom Ombo.

By evening, visit the Temple of Kom Ombo, a rare double temple uniquely dedicated to two gods—Horus the Elder and Sobek, the crocodile deity. Marvel at the twin sanctuaries, mysterious hieroglyphics, and ancient surgical instruments displayed within its walls.

Back on board, savor a delectable dinner and enjoy the serene Nile views as you continue toward Aswan.

Wake up to the beauty of Aswan and start the day with a lavish breakfast on deck. This charming city, known for its stunning natural scenery and Nubian heritage, is home to some of Egypt’s most fascinating landmarks.

Your first stop is the Aswan High Dam, a modern engineering marvel that transformed Egypt’s agricultural and energy sectors. Built between 1960 and 1970, this colossal structure controls the Nile’s annual floods and supplies hydroelectric power to the country.

Next, explore the Unfinished Obelisk, an enormous monument commissioned by Queen Hatshepsut. Left incomplete due to cracks in the granite, this gigantic obelisk provides a rare insight into ancient stone-cutting techniques.

End your tour at the Philae Temple, an enchanting shrine devoted to Isis, the goddess of love and motherhood. Saved from rising waters and relocated to Agilkia Island, this stunning sanctuary boasts hypnotic hieroglyphics, towering columns, and captivating myths of Egyptian lore.

Back on board, indulge in a gourmet dinner and relish your final night on the Jaz Viceroy Nile Cruise, soaking in the tranquil Nile ambiance.
