Itinerários


4 Days - Abu Simbel / Aswan Every Friday

Our representative from Next Holiday Travel will collect you from your accommodation hotel in Abu Simbel or from Abu Simbel airport, and then you will be transferred to your Lake Nasser Cruise for embarkation and check-in. Then you will have your lunch on the cruise.
Visit Abu Simbel Temple. After getting back from the amazing visit of the temple, you will be enjoying your afternoon tea time on board of the cruise and have some relaxation and refreshment. Dinner will be on board the cruise and overnight.

Meals Included: Lunch, Dinner
Optional Visit to Sound And Light Show at Abu Simbel

In the evening, you will have a fascinating sound & light show at Abu Simbel Temple. The Sound and Light show at Abu Simbel will convey you to the time of the pharaohs. Enchanting you with melodious music and bringing the ancient world to life around you, the show includes projections into the temples showing how they once looked. The program is presented in a number of languages with the provision of earpieces. It is an experience not to be missed, one that will make your visit to Abu Simbel the memory of a lifetime.

Your breakfast will be on board your cruise. The boat sails in the morning towards Kasr Ibrim, and you see for the first time the silhouette of Kasr Ibrim rising before you on the Nile River from the sundeck. The sound of the ancient city from the previous days is, to say the least, that it can only grace a mere distance as an island in the middle of the sea. The lunch will be got in the meanwhile. With your guide, visit the Amada Temple. The Amada Temple was originally built by Pharaoh Thutmose III. During his rule of the 18th Dynasty, Amenhotep II, who succeeded his father's throne upon death for three long years, continued adding to what was originally constructed and also improved the temple's decorations. After his passing, his successor, Thutmose IV, came in to initiate a few more changes—adding a roof to cover the original temple's open-style forecourt. Then you will sail off to the temple of Derr. With long history to look back on, Ramsess II is one of the most popular figures in Egyptian history by reason of a long and successful reign carrying many temples and many other structures to decorate and embellish them. This makes the temple of Derr stand out as one of the most particular treasures because of original location, lying on the eastern shore of the Nile where nothing else was to come ashore other than itself, and which is a very good example of an occurrence of the pharaoh's rock cut style. Finally, you will visit the Tomb of Pennut. Well, a straightforward path leading away from the two temples will soon lead you to one of the few remaining rock-cut tombs of a Viceroy of Kush in the world. Beyond the fact that the temple was like its counterparts on the neighboring hill, rescued during the 1960s from an original place long since submerged by the sea formed after the constructions of the High Dam. Return to the cruise boat; tonight, after a full palette of daytime tours, cocktails will be served by your hosts while a lively performance of Nubian shows goes on after that. Dinner and overnight stay on board of your cruise.

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Breakfast on board your cruise. You will have an early visit to Wadi El Seboua. Visiting Wadi El Seboua while you’re touring Lake Nasser makes for an unforgettable experience since the area is home to a number of relocated ancient sites. Wadi El Seboua is now home to two “New Kingdom” temples, as well as the Temple of Dakka and the Temple of Maharraqua. Most visitors to the site want to explore all of these buildings, and therefore they tend to dedicate a full day to the site. Many visitors begin with the famous “Valley of the Lions,” which is a sphinx-lined avenue that leads to the older of the two “New Kingdom” structures. This is the temple, which was built by Amenhotep III and dedicated to a Nubian version of the god Horus. It is a rock-cut temple with a brick pylon that remains intact. The courtyard and main hall still exist to this day, and there are also some admirable paintings. You will have your lunch on the cruise. Sail to Aswan. Dinner will be on the cruise and overnight in Aswan.
Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Breakfast will be served on board your ship. Later on, you will join your Egyptologist tour guide to discover the Temple of Kalabsha. Located within view of the High Dam, Kalabsha Temple is often the first stop for any cruise on Lake Nasser. It was moved to this spot from its originally location 30 miles to the south after the construction of the dam.Construction of the temple was begun at the end of the Ptolomaic Dynasty and actually completed under the rule of the Roman Emperor Augustus. The result is an interesting combination of imagery that includes Egyptian and Roman themes with images of Roman emperors and pharaohs worshipping with the Egyptian gods. The temple was dedicated to the Nubian god Mandulis. Later on, you will check out of your cruise, and our representative will transfer you to your accommodation hotel in Aswan.
Meals Included: Breakfast


5 Days - Aswan / Abu Simbel Every Monday

Upon arrival in Aswan City, you will be met by Next Holiday Travel representative who will accompany you and transfer you to your Lake Nasser Nile Cruise for embarkation and check-in. Lunch will be on board the Nile Cruise. Later on, you will join your Egyptologist tour guide to discover the great city of Aswan, including the High Dam. After that, you will enjoy sailing on the Nile River by a motorboat till you reach Agilika Island, where you will visit the Temple of Philae, which was erected during the Greco-Roman period and was dedicated to goddess Isis (mother of god Horus). Finally, you will be escorted to visit one of the marvelous sights in Aswan, the Unfinished Obelisk, which was made out of red granite and was dedicated to god Amun Ra. After finishing your day tour, you will get back to your ship and overnight.

Meals Included: Lunch, Dinner

Breakfast is served on the ship. You will, later on, join your Egyptologist-guide, who will lead you to explore the Kalabsha Temple. The Kalabsha Temple is the first stop on a Lake Nasser cruise because of its location just above the High Dam. Actually, it was moved here from its original location 30 miles downstream because of the dam construction. The temple construction began during the last days of the Ptolemaic dynasty, when it was actually completed under the Romans during the rule of Augustus. The resulting home is a fascinating blend of imagery drawing on themes from both Egyptian and Roman cultures—Roman emperors and pharaohs worshipping alongside Egyptian gods. The god worshipped at this temple was actually the Nubian deity, Mandulis. Beat el-Wali Temple, who, all this time, was drowning in the deep blue waters of Lake Nasser, was rescued by a Polish archaeological team set up by a joint Oriental Institute of Chicago/Swiss Institute of Cairo Project. The temple within is built on a symmetrical cruciform plan, which in turn comprises a deep hall, a perpendicular antechamber with two pillars bearing inscriptions, and a sanctuary. Labeled as a speos since the majority of it is carved in the rock but leaving the front wall of the deep hall with its central doorway intact. Later, as the visit is over, you will return to the boat to have a nap and refresh up and later have lunch aboard while sailing toward Wadi El Sebou while crossing the Tropic of Cancer.

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

You will have your breakfast on the board of the ship, then you will go to Wadi El Sebou. The name in Arabic means "Valley of the Lions," referring to the avenue of sphinxes that leads up to this temple, which was built during the reign of Ramesses II. Though it was moved to its current location only in the 1960’s, it was quickly forgotten and neglected. You will be bak to the ship to have lunch, and then the boat will sail to Amada. The Temple of Amada is the oldest of the monuments around Lake Nasser. Dating from the 18th dynasty of the New Kingdom, the temple predates Ramesses II and Abu Simbel by around two hundred years; however, as is typical of the great pharaoh of Egypt, Ramesses’s mark and that of his son Merenptah can be found inside.

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Early sail to Kasr Ibrim. View Kasr Ibrim from Sundeck. The Citadel of Kasr Ibrim was once a formidable city high above the Nile River, but today it appears as an island due to the construction of the Aswan High Dam. Then  Sail to Abu Simbel Visit Abu Simbel Temple . Built on

O orçamento para uma viagem pode variar bastante dependendo do destino, duração, opções de acomodação, atividades e preferências pessoais. Pesquisar os custos médios, incluindo acomodação, transporte, refeições e atrações, ajudará a estimar seu orçamento de forma mais precisa.

Os documentos essenciais de viagem geralmente incluem um passaporte válido, vistos (se necessário), passagens aéreas, reservas de hotel, seguro de viagem e quaisquer cartões de identificação necessários. É sempre uma boa ideia fazer cópias desses documentos e armazená-los separadamente como backup.

O Egito é famoso por seus antigos sítios históricos. Algumas das atrações imperdíveis incluem as Pirâmides de Gizé, a Esfinge, o Templo de Luxor, o Templo de Karnak, o Vale dos Reis, Abu Simbel e o Museu Egípcio no Cairo.

A melhor época para visitar o Egito é durante os meses mais frios, de outubro a abril, quando as temperaturas são mais amenas para explorar os sítios históricos. No entanto, se você estiver interessado em mergulhar no Mar Vermelho, os meses de verão oferecem águas quentes e excelente visibilidade.

Ao visitar locais religiosos, como mesquitas ou templos, é importante vestir-se modestamente como forma de respeito. Homens e mulheres devem cobrir os ombros e os joelhos. Também é aconselhável que as mulheres levem um lenço para cobrir o cabelo, se necessário.

Os melhores meses para aproveitar os passeios pelo Oriente Médio são geralmente abril e maio, ou outubro e novembro, embora isso possa variar dependendo de onde você está viajando e o que deseja fazer. As temperaturas costumam ser agradáveis, em vez de extremamente quentes durante certas horas, embora as multidões possam ser grandes em algumas atrações.

O meio de transporte mais comum é de ônibus. Na ausência deste, você normalmente encontrará táxis compartilhados ou ônibus turísticos que fazem rotas para os principais pontos turísticos (como Petra, na Jordânia). Embora voar seja a forma mais rápida de viajar entre os destinos do Oriente Médio.

Se você deseja fazer um grande tour pelo Oriente Médio, deve planejar um roteiro de pelo menos 10 dias com pacotes para o Oriente Médio, para garantir tempo suficiente em cada país. Você também pode precisar de tempo extra para ir de um local a outro devido à segurança e aos cruzamentos de fronteira entre os países.
