Nile Highlights
5 days · 7 sites · relaxed pace · steady
Five days following the river south: Karnak and Luxor Temple, the Valley of the Kings, then the Temple of Horus at Edfu and Kom Ombo, Philae at Aswan, and Abu Simbel. These are the sites of the Nile Journey route in your passport, in the order the river runs. Most days hold two stops or fewer, because on this itinerary the distance between them is the day.

The order and the pacing are TUT’s suggestion. Opening hours and ticket prices change; check at the gate or the official site — TUT doesn’t guess them.
Take it with you.
Open it in the planner to put real dates on these days — with Friday prayer times and the golden hour worked out for each site. Check in first for a free boarding pass with your name in hieroglyphs, and stamp every site on this list by standing there.
