9 Day Cairo, Aswan and Lake Nasser Cruise Package
Cairo / Giza / Aswan / Lake Nasser / Abu Simbel
Duration
9 Days / 8 Nights
Tour Type
Private
Language
English
Overview
This private 9-day Egypt journey connects Cairo and Giza with Aswan, Abu Simbel and a four-night Lake Nasser cruise. It is deliberately different from a classic Luxor-to-Aswan Nile cruise: the southern sailing is slower, the route is scheduled around the Lake Nasser embarkation, and Abu Simbel is part of the cruise stage rather than a rushed out-and-back road day.
Three Cairo nights protect the pyramids, museum and historic-city days before the domestic connection south. Browse more Egypt packages with Lake Nasser, compare M/S Kasr Ibrim Lake Nasser cruise, or plan this private journey.
Tour Highlights

Why You'll Love This Tour
- Choose Lake Nasser when a quieter southern cruise is more appealing than a rushed add-on.
- Keep Cairo, Aswan and Abu Simbel in one coherent private route.

Questions About This Tour
Clear answers to the practical details travellers usually confirm before requesting a quotation.
Is this a classic Nile cruise?
No. This route uses Lake Nasser between Aswan and Abu Simbel. Its weekly sailing rhythm is different from a Luxor-to-Aswan Nile cruise and is the reason the itinerary is built around four cruise nights.
Is Abu Simbel included?
Yes. Abu Simbel is a fixed part of the Lake Nasser stage, not an optional Cairo-side day trip.
Are flights included?
The published route includes the domestic Cairo–Aswan and Abu Simbel–Cairo economy sectors.
How much does the package cost?
Prices begin at USD 2,690 per person in Standard tier, May–September, triple occupancy. Select your tier, season and occupancy to see the firm Egypt Story price.
