Nile Holidays

The Nile is the world's longest river and a luxury cruise on an elegant ship is surely the most relaxing way to discover the cultural landmarks and archaeological sites of Egypt. Retrace the routes followed by Egypt's pharaohs from Luxor and wonder at the views over Lake Nasser from Aswan's High Dam.

Situated on the banks of the Nile is Aswan with its distinctly African atmosphere. Aswan boasts a slow and relaxed way of life combined with unparalleled access to superb Nubian sites and splendid temples including Abu Simbel and the Temple of Philae. Combine a holiday to Aswan with an unforgettable Nile or Lake Nasser cruise.

On the Nile's east bank is Luxor, set against spectacular desert landscapes and it is considered to be the greatest outdoor museum in the world with its magnificent temples, tombs and monuments which reflect the greatness and splendour of Ancient Egypt. There is an abundance of sights to see on Luxor holidays and with its riverside location, it's also an excellent base from which to start a luxury Nile Cruise.

At Classic Collection Holidays we offer a choice of two luxury Nile Cruises in which you can discover the beauty of Egypt. Embark on your journey at either Cairo or Luxor and visit the iconic ancient pyramids of Giza and the fascinating Valley of the Kings.
