The destination

Why Aswan stays with you

Aswan opens a softer, slower side of Egypt. Here the Warner Tours collection focuses on Nile-cruise travel: scenery from the sundeck, leisurely river movement between monuments, evening entertainment on board and a route that naturally connects Aswan with Kom Ombo, Edfu and Luxor. It is ideal for travellers who want several days of Egypt without changing hotels every night.

Why visit

  • A calmer Upper Egypt atmosphere and beautiful Nile views
  • Multi-day cruise journeys that combine sightseeing and onboard comfort
  • Temple stops such as Kom Ombo and Edfu within the wider cruise route
  • Evening entertainment including Tanoura, Oriental shows and galabeya atmosphere on board
