Beschrijving

U zult het heerlijk vinden om elke dag op de Nijl te varen, waar u de sfeer en het karakter van Egypte zult ervaren. Naast het genieten van de rust en stilte van de rivier en het prachtige landschap aan beide oevers van de Nijl, bezoekt u ook verschillende dorpen en oude monumenten. Opmerkingen:
  • Door onvoorziene omstandigheden, zoals gesloten sluizen of een laag waterpeil in de Nijl, kan het cruiseprogramma worden aangepast. Alle bezienswaardigheden worden echter wel bezocht.
