It was here whence the one of first human civilizations sprung and spread. Egypt has always been grand, with its history, culture and economics dominating and influencing region and the world. Eternal testimony and witness to its past legacy and present status are the architectural monuments, pyramids, castles, cathedrals and other whiffs of its long, rich and everlasting past. It always was and still is home to some of the friendliest, most welcoming people.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Have you read history of anci ent Egypt?<\/li>\n<li>Have you watched documentaries exploring Egyptian pyramids and other wonders of Egypt on TV?<\/li>\n<li>Do you want to explore one of the biggest and most diverse metropolises in the world, kaleidoscopic city of Cairo?<\/li>\n<li>Have you cruised on the life-giving and wondrous river Nile?<\/li>\n<li>Have you seen awe-striking statues, domes and buildings of the ancient Egyptian capital of Thebes (modern Luxor) which accumulate and are redolent of Pharaonic, Greek and Roman cross-cultural mixings?<\/li>\n<li>Would you like to feel the past, experience the present and glimpse the future of Egypt?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>An alternatively rewarding way to describe Egypt is via a cruise down the river Nile. Once the cornerstone of activities of the Pharaonic society, the River Nile flows north from Aswan, past Luxor&#8217;s (the ancient Pharaonic capital Thebes) many temples and through the capital Cairo until it finally flows into the Mediterranean Sea near Alexandria. As you float along the river you can contemplate from the deck and take in views of the small villages and ancient monuments that are dotted along the riverbank in front of a dramatic desert backdrop. While on land, you will also get to visit metropolitan Cairo and temples of Luxor.<\/p>\n<p>Noun Travel\u0393\u00c7\u00d6s \u0393\u00c7\u00a3Nile Cruise\u0393\u00c7\u00a5 is really an experience of a lifetime.<\/p>\n<p>With Noun Travel, in only\u252c\u00e110 days, you will fill your heart with memorable temples, villages, ruins and islets along the river Nile, alongside main tourist attractions in Cairo and Luxor.<\/p>\n<p class=\"right\"><span class=\"right\"><strong>Starts from: 915<\/strong>$\/person<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"right\">10 Days\/9 Nights<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"pack_block\">\n<h3>Photo Gallery<\/h3>\n<p><!-- Start VisualLightBox.com HEAD section --><\/p>\n<p><!-- #vlightbox li { float:left;list-style:none;} --><!-- Start VisualLightBox.com BODY section --><\/p>\n<div id=\"vlightbox\">\n<ul>\n<li><a class=\"vlightbox\" title=\"aswan4\" href=\"data\/images1\/aswan4.jpg\" rel=\"shadowbox[post-485];player=img;\"><img src=\"data\/thumbnails1\/aswan4.jpg\" alt=\"aswan4\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a class=\"vlightbox\" title=\"statue6\" href=\"data\/images1\/statue6.jpg\" rel=\"shadowbox[post-485];player=img;\"><img src=\"data\/thumbnails1\/statue6.jpg\" alt=\"statue6\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><script src=\"\/engine\/js\/visuallightbox.js\" type=\"text\/javascript\"><\/script><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- End VisualLightBox.com BODY section --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"pack_block\">\n<h3>Duration and accommodation<\/h3>\n<p>You may choose from one of the below options for duration and accommodation of your trip.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>starting from 915$\/person in double room (3 stars)<\/li>\n<li>10 days\/9 nights<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"pack_block\">\n<h3>Included:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>2 nights hotel accommodation in Cairo (breakfast included)<\/li>\n<li>7 nights at a Nile Cruise (breakfast, lunch and dinner included)<\/li>\n<li>Full-day tour in Cairo, including Pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx, Egyptian Museum, Mohamed Aly Pasha Mosque and Citadel of Saladin<\/li>\n<li>All the major sightseeing sites (accompanied by an Egyptologist tour guide) during the Nile Cruise, including Temple of Karnak, West bank of Luxor , Temple of Edfu, Temple of Kom Ombo, High Dam of Aswan, and a short felucca sailboat ride down the Nile in Aswan<\/li>\n<li>All the meet-and-greet transfers and transportation throughout the entire trip<\/li>\n<li>Services of an experienced and English-speaking Egyptologist tour guide<\/li>\n<li>Domestic flight round trip on economy class<\/li>\n<li>15% Frequent Traveler credit toward your next Noun Travel trip<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"pack_block\">\n<h3>Package does not include:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>International flight ticket (if applicable)<\/li>\n<li>Costs of entry visa to Egypt<\/li>\n<li>Gratuity\/tips to tour guides<\/li>\n<li>Any extra meal or tour not mentioned above<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"pack_block\">\n<h3>General hints:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Drinks are not included\u252c\u00e1on the Nile Cruise<\/li>\n<li>All the vehicles are modern, air-conditioned and have an experienced driver<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"pack_block\">\n<h3>Possible trip extensions:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Pre-trip to Alexandria<\/li>\n<li>Pre- or Post-trip to Abu Simbel<\/li>\n<li>Post-trip to Sharm El Sheikh and\/or Hurghada<\/li>\n<li>Post-excursion \u0393\u00c7\u00a3Spiritual Cairo\u0393\u00c7\u00a5<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"pack_block\">\n<h2>Day-by-day itinerary:<\/h2>\n<h3>Day 1<\/h3>\n<p>Arrive Cairo International Airport , Meet Noun Travel Representative and transfer to your hotel for overnight.<\/p>\n<h3>Day 2<\/h3>\n<p>Start a full day tour to The famous Giza Pyramids , the fabulous Sphinx, then move to downtown to visit the Egyptian Museum which full of Tutankhamen treasures , end your trip to, Mohamed Aly Pasha Mosque and Citadel of Saladin.
