Nile Cruise & Luxor,
Egypt |  | A Nile
cruise is a fabulous way to discover the history, culture and traditions of Egypt
whilst, at the same time, enjoying the facilities of a comfortable Nile cruiser.
We have combined 4 nights on the Nile with 3 nights in Luxor to offer you the
amazing sights and sounds which can only be savoured on this unique holiday. Your
4 star Nile cruiser offers comfort and service in keeping with its comfortable
cabins, public lounges and restaurant spread over 4 decks. Each well furnished
cabin is air-conditioned and has a private sh/wc and an internal phone.
There
is also a well-appointed lounge, a restaurant, bar and gift shop. In addition,
there’s a small swimming pool, a sun deck, a laundry service, safety deposit
box, and, most evenings, on-board entertainment. In Luxor you will be staying
at the comfortable 4 star Hotel Mercure (1 Jan – 31 March 2010) or the 4
star Iberotel Luxor (1 April 2010 – 31 March 2011), both close to the Nile
and local amenities. Both hotels are fully air-conditioned and all rooms have
private sh/wc and a balcony or terrace. There’s a bar, a swimming pool and,
of course, a restaurant serving a mix of local and international dishes. |
