Luxury Nile River Cruises

Snaking through Egypt on its journey through Africa, the green shores and deep waters of the River Nile have been sustaining life since the time of the ancient Egyptians. Discover why the Nile River is just as special today on a luxury cruise from Cairo to the charming islands of Aswan or the huge temples of Luxor.

Exploring this world-famous river while experiencing the comfort of a cruise is ideal for couples and families alike. From the fascinating history of the land of the pharaohs to the magnificent scenery along the shoreline, there's so much to make a Nile River cruise unforgettable – especially when you travel with Scott Dunn.

What to Expect From a Luxury Cruise on the Nile River

Traveling on a luxury cruise along the River Nile is a fascinating way to immerse yourself in one of history's most magnificent civilizations. Sit back and relax as our local experts guide you through fertile farmlands, panoramic desertscapes, and, of course, the preserved glory of ancient Egypt's finest temples, palaces, and tombs.

Our Senior Travel Specialist, Bjorn Behlert, describes what makes a Scott Dunn Nile River cruise so special:

“A Nile cruise is a very relaxing and classic way to explore Egypt. You get to see all the sights but can then relax and unwind whilst cruising down the Nile in comfort. As the itineraries for Egypt are generally fairly busy, the Nile cruises are a perfect way to take a break and let the desert landscapes and the Nile delta pass you by. It’s also a great way to get away from all the hustle and bustle that often surrounds Egypt’s sites and cities.”

How to choose the right Nile River cruise for you

Here are a few things you should consider so you get the best experience from your luxury Nile River cruise:

• The boat size: Smaller vessels accommodate fewer passengers, allowing for a more intimate experience. You'll be closer to your guide and have greater access to their expertise. Plus, you'll get to know your fellow passengers better.
• The itinerary: Each of our itineraries is unique and tailored to the type of experience you desire. Whether you want to spend most of your time exploring the different historical sites along the Nile River or relaxing in opulence onboard the cruise ship, we'll do our best to make it happen.
• The amenities: We choose the finest ships for you, so rest assured your comfort is guaranteed when you travel with us. But different ships have different amenities. You should consider which will make the biggest difference to you during your trip.
