I thought I knew Egypt. I was wrong. 🇪🇬🤍

After visiting Egypt several times, I thought I knew exactly what to expect: crowds, chaos, constant rushing and busy tourist spots.

But this time was different.

Six days and five nights sailing the Nile from Luxor to Aswan aboard @msroyalserenade completely changed the way I experienced this country.

Imagine slow mornings on the water, breathtaking ancient temples, peaceful sunsets, delicious food and time to actually enjoy every moment with your bestie. 🥰

My biggest Egypt travel tip? If you want to explore ancient temples without constantly rushing between places, consider a Nile cruise from Luxor to Aswan.

Same Egypt. A completely different feeling. ✨

Have you ever experienced a destination in a way that completely changed your opinion of it?

Ad / 6 days on a luxury Nile cruise. Was it worth it? 🇪🇬

Honestly, I didn’t expect exploring Egypt to feel this relaxing.

I’d always imagined visiting Egypt’s ancient sites would involve long transfers, crowds and hectic day trips. But spending five nights aboard @msroyalserenade was the complete opposite.

We had our own guide, who took care of tickets and all the practical details, and our visits were timed to avoid the busiest hours. No standing in long lines, no rushing from one place to another. Just enjoying the places we’d come all this way to see.

And then there was the food. I genuinely wasn’t prepared for how good it would be.

On board, we enjoyed à la carte dining, with beautifully presented multi-course lunches and dinners, plenty of choices and menus that kept changing throughout our stay. Everything I tried was fantastic. The entire restaurant team was wonderful, especially Yousef, our lovely waiter, who somehow always had a smile on his face.

What I loved most was the balance. We explored incredible places, had time to relax on board and never felt like we were trying to squeeze too much into one day.

Would I do it again? Absolutely. And I think I’d be looking forward to the food just as much as the temples. 🤍

A few things I’d recommend before booking a Nile cruise:
• Check the full itinerary, not just the ship.
• Ask how excursions are organized and whether a guide is included.
• Look at the dining options and what’s included in your stay.

Save this if you’re planning a trip to Egypt, or send it to someone you’d love to explore the Nile with. ✨

Egypt, but slower. 🇪🇬✨

Six days, five nights aboard @msroyalserenade, sailing the Nile from Luxor to Aswan. Slow mornings on the water, golden sunsets, and the kind of quiet that’s hard to find on a typical Egypt trip.

What made this Nile cruise special was the itinerary: temple visits were timed to avoid the busiest hours, so each place felt calmer than I expected.

Our journey:
✧ Luxor & Karnak Temples
✧ Denderah and its astronomical ceilings
✧ Luxor’s West Bank
✧ Edfu Temple at 8 AM
✧ Kom Ombo at sunset
✧ Philae Temple in the early morning
✧ A Nubian village in Aswan
✧ Breakfast overlooking the Aswan cataracts

And in between? Long, peaceful hours sailing along the Nile, watching everyday life unfold along the riverbanks.

A completely different way to experience Egypt, and one I’d choose again.

Save this for your Egypt bucket list, and send it to someone you’d want beside you on deck.🤍

Sail the Nile in pure luxury 🇪🇬✨ Aboard the @msroyalserenade every stop is a journey through 3,000 years of pharaonic history, from Luxor to Aswan.

Here are the stops you can discover:

📍 Karnak Temple, Luxor. Dedicated to Amun-Ra, king of the gods. Its Great Hypostyle Hall holds 134 giant columns, finished under Seti I and Ramesses II.

📍 Valley of the Kings. The royal burial ground of the New Kingdom pharaohs, including Tutankhamun and Ramesses II, with painted tombs carved deep into the desert cliffs.

📍 Colossi of Memnon. Two 18-metre statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III that once guarded the gates of his mortuary temple.

📍 Temple of Hatshepsut, Deir el-Bahari. Built for one of Egypt’s few female pharaohs, with terraces rising against the cliffs and lined with Osiris statues.

📍 Dendera. The sanctuary of Hathor, goddess of love, music and joy, famed for its starry zodiac ceiling.

📍 Edfu. The Temple of Horus, the falcon-headed sky god. It is the best-preserved temple in all Egypt.

📍 Kom Ombo. A rare double temple shared by Sobek the crocodile god and Horus the Elder, right on the Nile.

📍 Philae, Aswan. The sanctuary of Isis, moved stone by stone to Agilkia Island to save it from the rising Nile.

What if the most luxurious way to see ancient Egypt was also the most relaxing?
I just spent 6 days and 5 nights aboard the @msroyalserenade sailing the Nile from Luxor to Aswan, and it completely changed the way I think about travel.
✨This is a true luxury cruise, where every day alternates between two worlds:
🛥️ Pure relaxation and wellbeing: sunbeds by the pool, slow breakfasts on deck, golden sunsets over the river and dinners with a view
🍽️ Exquisite food, from fine dining to live cooking with the chef
🏛️ Cultural escapes: we visited all the temples along the way, walking through thousands of years of history.
Mornings among the pharaohs, afternoons floating on the Nile.

This was my itinerary, but other options are available too.
