Overview
This Christmas, ditch the cold and embark on an unforgettable adventure on the majestic Nile River with the Salacia Nile Cruise! Sail from Luxor, the "City of a Hundred Gates," to Aswan, soaking up the ancient wonders of Egypt bathed in warm December sunshine.

Explore the grandeur of Luxor Temple and Karnak Temple, sprawling complexes that were once places of worship for pharaohs and deities. Delve into the tombs of Egypt's great rulers, including Tutankhamun (King Tut), nestled within dramatic cliffs in the Valley of the Kings. Marvel at the architectural marvel dedicated to the powerful female pharaoh, Hatshepsut, at Hatshepsut Temple. Stand dwarfed by the two massive, weathered statues guarding the entrance to a long-lost temple at the Colossi of Memnon. Witness the unique double temple dedicated to both the crocodile god Sobek and the falcon god Horus at Kom Ombo Temple. Admire the near-perfectly preserved Horus Temple (Edfu), a testament to the power and influence of the falcon god Horus.
