M/S Nubian Sea

Your journey begins on the expansive decks of the MS Nubian Sea, where each day is a new discovery. Over the course of four days, you will delve into the heart of ancient Nubian civilization, visiting sites rarely seen by the average traveler. Our curated itinerary includes:

• Kalabsha Temple: A marvel of ancient architecture, originally built by Emperor Augustus and relocated to its current site in the 1960s. It stands as a stunning blend of Roman and Egyptian craftsmanship.
• Beit El Wali: Explore the beautifully carved scenes depicting Ramesses II’s victories and religious rituals, offering a window into the sacred and political life of ancient Egypt.
• Wadi El Seboua: Known as the Valley of the Lions, this complex is guarded by avenues of sphinxes and leads to a temple dedicated to the god Amun.
• Amada Temple: The oldest of the Lake Nasser temples, Amada is a compact but richly decorated site with vivid wall paintings that tell tales of ancient deities and pharaonic triumphs.
• Kasr Ibrim Citadel: View the remains of this ancient citadel from the deck, as entrance is not permitted, but the visible ruins atop a high cliff offer a glimpse into a layered history spanning Nubian, Roman, and Medieval times.
• Abu Simbel Temple: The climax of the cruise, where you will witness the awe-inspiring temple of Ramesses II and the Temple of Hathor, majestically positioned to overlook the lake, immortalizing the Pharaoh and his queen, Nefertari.
