Day 2
After breakfast at 9:00 AM, your guide heads to Saqqara first to see the Step Pyramid of Zoser. Then you'll move on to Giza, where you can see the three Great Pyramids of Cheops, Chephren, and Menkaure, along with the Sphinx. Once back at your hotel, the rest of the day is yours to rest.

You'll fly to Aswan in the morning and transfer to your Nile dahabiya sailing vessel. After lunch, you visit Philae Temple and check out the unfinished Obelisk nearby. Dinner is served onboard, where you'll spend the night.
Day 4
Early morning brings a trip to Abu Simbel to see the two massive temples of Ramses II. You'll return to your dahabiya and then start sailing toward Luxor. The rest of your day is free to relax on the boat.

Sleep in if you like, as the dahabiya sails toward Kom Ombo. During the sail, you can watch water buffalo wading in shallow waters and spot birds along the river. Later, you'll visit the Greco-Roman temple at Kom Ombo before spending another night onboard.
