3-Day 2-Night Aswan to Luxor Cruise with Abu Simbel and Balloon is designed around the confirmed route, your travel dates and a clearly itemised service package. Only accept dates with confirmed early Abu Simbel transport and a compatible same-day ship departure. This is a compressed itinerary, not a daily guaranteed sailing.
Use this itinerary to plan the experience that fits your party. Tell us your dates, hotel or arrival point and any practical requirements, and receive a written quotation before deciding. The programme separates included services from optional extras so you can compare the full cost and choose the pace that works for you.
Begin from central Aswan very early. The road return must connect with a confirmed ship departure; otherwise this itinerary cannot be accepted. Board for lunch when timing permits, or the agreed replacement meal, and continue toward Kom Ombo. Overnight aboard.
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.
Visit the twin temple at Kom Ombo overlooking the Nile. Your guide explains the paired layout and helps you read selected surviving scenes. Cruise arrivals can bring busy periods; the visit follows the actual sailing or road schedule, with museum access included only if stated in your quotation.
Visit Edfu according to the ship’s mooring programme and sail toward Luxor. Arrival depends on navigation and lock traffic. Meals and a second night are aboard. An evening Luxor Temple visit is not guaranteed.
Explore the Temple of Horus at Edfu and its unusually complete architectural sequence. The transfer from a cruise mooring is agreed in advance, with a motor vehicle requested where locally available. Animal-drawn transport is not assumed, and alternative arrangements may affect time or cost.
A shared balloon proceeds only if the ship’s arrival and weather allow. After breakfast and checkout, take the ground tour and the agreed central Luxor drop-off. Do not book an early onward flight; Aswan city sightseeing is not included.
Transfer before dawn to the approved launch area for a shared hot air balloon experience. Attend the operator’s safety briefing and follow the pilot’s instructions throughout. Flights depend on weather and aviation clearance; the exact launch time, route and flight length cannot be guaranteed, and cancellation is sometimes necessary.
Enter the Valley of the Kings and visit the tombs covered by the standard ticket on your date. Your guide explains the royal burial landscape and prepares you for the interiors where guiding rules may restrict commentary. Special tomb admissions are separate unless explicitly included; no particular open-tomb combination is guaranteed.
Continue to the terraced memorial temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el Bahari. Walk through the accessible levels and examine the relationship between architecture and the limestone cliffs. The open courtyard can be hot, so take breaks and discuss any difficulty with ramps or stairs before the excursion.
Explore the temple complex of Karnak, moving through its courtyards and columned spaces with an Egyptologist. A focused route explains how successive rulers changed the site. Allow time to absorb the scale instead of rushing every corner; conservation work and crowd flow can alter the precise walking route.
Indicative regular price: US$349 per adult sharing a twin/double room or cabin, 2 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
