Nile cruises vary considerably, but typical Nile cruises are either three, four or seven nights. The shorter tours usually operate between Luxor and Aswan, while the longer cruises travel further north to Dendera, often offering day tours over land to more remote locations. Many of the Nile cruisers have accommodations, amenities and facilities which more approach that of an ocean cruiser than a river boat. It's a great way to see Egypt in comfort and style, with a considerable bit of romance thrown in as a bonus.
