Radamis II Nile Cruise Itinerary

High Dam (Day 1)

This colossal structure regulates the Nile's flow and powers much of Egypt. From its crest, enjoy sweeping views across the vast expanse of Lake Nasser.

Philae Temple (Day 1)

Reached by motorboat on Agilkia Island, this graceful sanctuary honors Isis, goddess of magic and motherhood. Rescued from flooding by a UNESCO relocation, its colonnades and reliefs are among the Nile's most enchanting sights.

Unfinished Obelisk (Day 1)

Lying in the ancient granite quarries, this massive monument was abandoned due to a fatal crack. It offers a rare glimpse into the stone-working mastery of Egypt's craftsmen.

Evening
The ship remains docked overnight in Aswan, with the city's lights reflecting softly on the river.

Meals: Lunch, Dinner

Abu Simbel Temples (Day 2 – Optional)

An early departure by road or flight leads to the rock-cut marvels of Ramses II and Queen Nefertari. These twin temples, relocated stone by stone, stand as timeless tributes to ancient devotion.

Kom Ombo Temple (Day 2)

This rare double sanctuary honors Sobek, the crocodile god, and Horus the Elder in mirrored symmetry. Its walls display ancient medical instruments, and the adjacent museum houses mummified crocodiles.

Evening
The cruiser continues north toward Edfu as desert silhouettes glide past beneath the stars.

Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Temple of Horus at Edfu (Day 3)

Reached by horse-drawn carriage, this is the most completely preserved temple in Egypt. Its towering pylon and vivid reliefs tell the epic battle between Horus and his uncle Seth.

Karnak Temple Complex (Day 3)

The largest religious site of the ancient world, this sprawling complex features the legendary Hypostyle Hall with its forest of towering columns. Explore sacred lakes, soaring obelisks, and the Precinct of Amun-Re.

Luxor Temple (Day 3)

Bathed in golden afternoon light, this riverside temple displays colossal statues of Ramses II and soaring obelisks. The Avenue of Sphinxes once connected it to Karnak over a considerable distance.

Evening
The ship docks overnight in Luxor as the illuminated temples cast their glow across the water.

Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Valley of the Kings (Day 4)

Hidden in the arid Theban hills, these royal tombs are carved deep into limestone and adorned with vibrant afterlife scenes. Three tombs are included, with optional entry to Tutankhamun's tomb at extra cost.

Temple of Queen Hatshepsut (Day 4)

Rising in terraces against the cliffs of Deir el-Bahari, this mortuary temple honors Egypt's most powerful female pharaoh. Its elegant colonnades and sweeping views over the necropolis are breathtaking.

Colossi of Memnon (Day 4)

These two colossal statues of Amenhotep III once guarded a grand temple now lost to time. Legend says one would "sing" at dawn—a haunting echo of ancient mystery.

Evening
Return to the ship for a final breakfast before disembarkation in Luxor.
