Nile Cruise, Aswan and Abu Simbel

The Nile cruise was amazing – a very comfortable boat with great food and periodic stops to see amazing sites.

Here is the second gallery from the point we joined the Sun Boat IV cruise in Luxor.   For the first whole day and a half the cruise was just a hotel on the water – it was not until we finished our visit to Den Dera and the Luxor temple that we actually got underway.

The second gallery picks up the journey as we arrived in Luxor.   We actually landed at around 1am and managed a little bit of sleep in the Winter Palace hotel – then it was up and at’em for a morning spent with Khalef and our driver visiting some of the sites that would not be covered once we joined the Nile cruise.   These were the b-list sites but we thought they were pretty amazing, especially Habu temple.
