Step aboard the Royal Ruby II and embark on a magnificent voyage along the world's most legendary river. This elegant 5-star Nile cruise offers two carefully crafted route options, giving you the flexibility to begin your journey from either Luxor or Aswan. The 4-day Aswan to Luxor route departs every Wednesday, while the 5-day Luxor to Aswan journey sets sail every Saturday. Each route is packed with extraordinary experiences, from the towering columns of Karnak Temple and the royal tombs of the Valley of the Kings, to the double temple of Kom Ombo and the perfectly preserved Temple of Horus at Edfu. As the sun sets over the Nile, enjoy vibrant onboard evenings with a Galabia party, Nubian show, belly dancer performance, and cocktail gatherings that bring the spirit of Egypt to life.
