Detailed itinerary

Day 1 · Aswan arrival and hotel

Meet your representative at the confirmed arrival point, transfer to the proposed hotel and settle in. No sightseeing is promised before the arrival time is checked. This day is reserved for the named transfer, embarkation or leisure plan. No unlisted attraction is included. Allow time for check-in procedures, meals and rest; optional experiences can be quoted before departure. Hotel breakfasts are included where a hotel night is part of the accommodation plan; other meals follow the explicit inclusions.

Day 2 · Philae Temple + Nubian Museum

Your guide follows the listed route at a practical pace, with a break for lunch at your own expense unless a cruise or activity meal is specified. Return to the accommodation or continue to the next overnight stop shown in the route. Hotel breakfasts are included where a hotel night is part of the accommodation plan; other meals follow the explicit inclusions.

Take the arranged boat to the Philae temple complex and explore its island setting with your guide. Discuss the cult of Isis and the monuments’ relocation without rushing the waterfront views. Boat access involves steps and changing water levels; mobility needs must be checked with the actual embarkation facilities.

Visit the Nubian Museum in Aswan to place the region’s monuments, communities and changing landscape in context. A focused route highlights selected objects rather than claiming to cover the entire collection. Opening arrangements and any temporary gallery closure are checked before finalising the excursion.

Day 3 · Lake Nasser embarkation + Kalabsha

Your guide follows the listed route at a practical pace, with a break for lunch at your own expense unless a cruise or activity meal is specified. Return to the accommodation or continue to the next overnight stop shown in the route. Hotel breakfasts are included where a hotel night is part of the accommodation plan; other meals follow the explicit inclusions.

Cross to the relocated Kalabsha temple area using the confirmed boat service. Explore the monuments open to visitors and learn about the wider Nubian salvage story. Water access and operating arrangements are more limited than a central Aswan walk, so this stop must be checked before confirmation.

Day 4 · Wadi El Seboua

Your guide follows the listed route at a practical pace, with a break for lunch at your own expense unless a cruise or activity meal is specified. Return to the accommodation or continue to the next overnight stop shown in the route. Hotel breakfasts are included where a hotel night is part of the accommodation plan; other meals follow the explicit inclusions.

Go ashore for the monuments in the Wadi El Seboua area when landing is permitted. Your guide sets the surviving buildings within the story of Nubian relocation. Heat, exposed paths and access conditions influence the pace, and a water landing cannot be guaranteed on every departure.

Day 5 · Amada

Your guide follows the listed route at a practical pace, with a break for lunch at your own expense unless a cruise or activity meal is specified. Return to the accommodation or continue to the next overnight stop shown in the route. Hotel breakfasts are included where a hotel night is part of the accommodation plan; other meals follow the explicit inclusions.

Visit the accessible temple group in the Amada area during the confirmed Lake Nasser sailing. The landing sequence is controlled by the vessel and local permissions. Take care on uneven ground and return to the boat at the crew’s stated time so the cruise can continue safely.

Day 6 · Abu Simbel

Your guide follows the listed route at a practical pace, with a break for lunch at your own expense unless a cruise or activity meal is specified. Return to the accommodation or continue to the next overnight stop shown in the route. Hotel breakfasts are included where a hotel night is part of the accommodation plan; other meals follow the explicit inclusions.

Travel by the confirmed road route to Abu Simbel and visit the temples of Ramesses II and Nefertari. Allow meaningful time on site rather than treating the long journey as a photo stop. Departure and return depend on road arrangements and security instructions; the programme never guarantees a private or crowd-free temple.

Day 7 · Abu Simbel disembarkation and road transfer to Aswan

After the included breakfast, complete the listed final arrangements and take the confirmed departure transfer. Checkout time and flight buffer are agreed separately. Hotel breakfasts are included where a hotel night is part of the accommodation plan; other meals follow the explicit inclusions.

Price and booking basis

Indicative regular price: US$999 per adult sharing a twin/double room or cabin, 6 nights.

Indicative regular base rate in USD, proposed for standard non-holiday dates and subject to written confirmation before booking. No live availability is implied. Christmas, New Year, Easter and the August 2027 eclipse period require a separate quotation. There is no fabricated discount or crossed-out comparison price.

Children’s ages, solo occupancy, additional passengers and accessibility arrangements are quoted individually. Required extras are disclosed before payment; an enquiry does not reserve inventory.

Pickup and practical details

In Aswan, boats and road transport often need to be coordinated. A central hotel, an island property and a West Bank guesthouse can involve different meeting arrangements. Send the full address and ask who organises any river crossing. An Abu Simbel excursion also needs a workable road schedule, especially when a cruise departs later the same day. Avoid treating a published itinerary as proof that a particular ship or transfer is available on your date.

Please provide the full hotel name, arrival details and a contact number that works during travel. Tell us about mobility needs, dietary restrictions and children’s ages before confirmation. No specific accessibility, language upgrade or special venue access is assumed without agreement.

Cancellation

Cancel in writing at least 24 hours before the confirmed service start for a full refund of the amount paid to Wow Travel Egypt for that service. The cutoff uses the local time shown in your confirmation. For a multi-day booking, the cutoff is measured from the start of the whole booking.

Frequently asked questions

Does an enquiry confirm my booking?

No. We confirm the date, services and total price in writing before a reservation is accepted. Do not book dependent transport on the basis of an indicative rate alone.

Are entrance fees included?

Use the inclusions above and your written quotation. Standard cultural admission and special tickets are excluded unless specifically listed; activity admission such as the booked boat or beach pass follows its own inclusion list.

Can the route be adapted?

Tell us your priorities before confirmation. Changes may affect price, transport or the available time. A safety or access restriction cannot be overridden by a request.
