Dear friends,
Start the new year with an amazing trip that will not only allow you to visit all of Egypt's iconic sights—from the ancient temples of Luxor to the majestic Aswan Dam—but also enjoy a beach holiday at an all-inclusive hotel in Hurghada.
On a single New Year's trip with our general partner, the cruise company "Sozvezdie," you'll take two cruises: along the popular stretch of the Nile—from Luxor to Aswan—on the Jaz Al Qassida, and a rare cruise—from Aswan to Abu Simbel on the Omar El Khayam.
Additionally, anyone can purchase a one-day post-cruise program in Cairo with accommodation in a 5-star hotel, breakfast, and airport transfer.
Cruise tour dates:
Egypt cruises are another interesting feature of the "Discovering the World with Sozvezdie" project:
An all-inclusive package tour with a maximum of services – a cruise, accommodation at a 4-star hotel in Hurghada, a full excursion program, domestic flights and comfortable transfers, tips, medical insurance, and visa support (if necessary); a rich pre- or post-cruise program – the opportunity to spend 2 days on the Red Sea or purchase an additional program in Cairo with accommodation at a 5-star hotel; support, care, and attention from the group leader and accompanying staff from Sozvezdie throughout the entire route, assistance with any questions on board; fully Russian-language service – an information chat with pre-cruise preparation, excursions with Russian-speaking guides, an onboard newspaper, and a daily program in Russian.
During a 9 or 11 day cruise tour you will visit:
Cairo is the capital of Egypt, where oriental bazaars and the bustle of modern city life create a striking contrast. Hurghada is the main resort on the Red Sea, a great place for a family vacation, diving, or fun beach parties. Luxor is an open-air museum housing about a third of all ancient Egyptian monuments, including legendary temples, pharaonic tombs, and colossal statues. Aswan is the perfect place to experience the rhythm of the great river. Here you'll find the majestic Aswan Dam, the romantic Philae Temple of the goddess Isis, and a true oasis on the Nile—a picturesque botanical garden. Edfu is the best-preserved temple of ancient Egypt, dedicated to the god Horus, patron of the pharaohs' power. Kom Ombo is an architectural phenomenon: a double temple dedicated to the gods Sobek and Horus. Its terraces offer stunning views of the Nile. New Kalabsha is an open-air museum where several ancient Nubian temples were assembled to protect them from the waters of Lake Nasser during the construction of the Aswan High Dam. Wadi el-Sebouya is a complex of ancient Egyptian temples on the western shore of Lake Nasser, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Amadou is the oldest of the Nubian temples, with remarkably well-preserved reliefs and vibrant colors. Abu Simbel is one of the most famous and majestic monuments of Ancient Egypt, consisting of two rock-cut temples carved by Pharaoh Ramesses II in the 13th century BC.
