Nile Story Nile Cruise
A Nile cruise ship with French balcony cabins, a sun deck pool with Jacuzzi and full board. Suits travelers who want a balcony and an active evening program.
Nile Story sails between Luxor and Aswan with a French balcony in its cabins, so you can open the doors to the river. One operator lists the ship at 72 meters with five decks and a 2024 renovation. Standard cabins measure about 20 square meters with the bathroom, and have climate control, satellite TV, a minibar and a safe. The sun deck has a pool with a Jacuzzi, and below there is a gym, massage room, piano bar and discotheque. Meals are full board in the main restaurant. One operator notes there is no elevator, so expect stairs.
The 4-night cruise leaves Luxor on Mondays and sails south to Aswan. The 3-night cruise leaves Aswan on Fridays and sails north. Seven-night round trips from either city are also listed. Stops include Esna, Edfu and Kom Ombo, Philae in Aswan, and Karnak and the West Bank in Luxor. Days start early on a short program, so take the 4-night Monday sailing if you want one more day for the temples.
