Egypt: Slow Boat to Aswan

Tour Map of Egypt: Slow Boat to Aswan

As the sun sets on the distant horizon, a dahabiya glides gently across the calm waters towards the shore - its sails reflecting the warm glow of the afternoon sun. It is a scene as timeless as the Nile itself… This incredible journey down the Nile is a voyage of discovery in the truest sense of the word, encompassing not only the magnificent monuments of the ancients, but also the little explored heritage of the ordinary Egyptians. Travelling in style aboard a comfortable dahabiya (traditional houseboat), we follow the fertile ribbon of the Nile as it weaves from the ancient city of Thebes, deep into the southern boundaries of Upper Egypt. We follow in the wake of European adventurers who came here to satisfy their curiosity and greed, visiting the temple complexes of Karnak and Edfu, exploring tombs in the Valley of the Kings and the bustling markets of Aswan. But more than this, we will also get a chance to explore something of the ‘real’ Egypt, making the most of our flexibility and freedom to escape the tourist trail and visit the remote villages that line the banks of the Nile. This is an Egypt that has essentially remained unchanged for millennia, its people living their lives much as their ancestors did centuries ago. This is an Egypt that the tomb raiders couldn’t steal.

Lake Nasser Escape

Tour Map of Lake Nasser Escape

Far from the bustling streets of Cairo and the packed temples of the Nile Valley, lies one of Egypt’s best-kept secrets. Beyond the great cataracts of Upper Egypt, amongst the deserts landscapes of ancient Nubia, we find one of the most unspoiled and breathtaking settings in Africa. Lake Nasser is one of the world’s most expansive stretches of water, with a coastline covering more than 7,800 kilometres. Refreshingly devoid of tourists, its deserts and shoreline are home to Nile crocodiles, ancient temples and over 100 species of birds and this fascinating adventure takes us deep into its captivating heart. Travelling aboard a small private safari boat and with the option to sleep out under the stars, we will discover ancient Pharaonic temples and prehistoric graffiti, trek across golden dunes and swim in clear waters that are filled with Nile perch and tiger fish. With an opportunity to explore the bustling streets of Aswan and visit the spectacular World Heritage setting of Abu Simbel, this remarkable journey encompasses some of the most sublimely beautiful and culturally diverse landscapes anywhere in Egypt.
