Is Nile cruise in Egypt worth it?

River Nile Cruises are one of the best ways to see Egypt and the relics of its ancient past. Cruising between Aswan and Luxor will give you time to relax and take in the scenery of the Nile Valley while enjoying daily tours from your Nile Cruise to some of the most impressive Ancient Egyptian temples.

What is the best month for a Nile cruise?

Egypt river cruises on the Nile mostly run from August through May, pausing for the extreme heat of summer. The best time to cruise the Nile River is October to April in terms of weather. However, be prepared to experience crowds during this time because it's the busiest season.
