Nile River Cruises - cities and tourist attractions

Starting in Luxor you are immediately confronted with one of the absolute highlights of Egypt: what is probably the world's largest religious temple complex: the Karnak temple. You can also admire the mystical Valley of the Kings, Egypt's necropolis, in which the ostentatious cliff tombs of the rulers of the New Empire are to be found.
The Nile River Cruise then takes you on to Edfu. This is the starting point for a visit to the country's best preserved temple, the Temple of Horus.
In Kom Ombo you can see the symmetrically laid-out "double temple". The camel market is also worth visiting.
Further to the South, Aswan, with its 4 km long and roughly 111 m high dam, is a particularly interesting tourist destination on the Nile River Cruise.
The journey then continues across the world-famous reservoir, Lake Nasser to Abu Simbel. This is the site where Egypt's most important building, the mighty cliff temple of Rameses the Great, the Temple of Abu Simbel, was built. Four gigantic 21 m high statues of the Pharaoh are enthroned at the temple gate as if to protect it.
