Itinerary

Day 1

Hotel pickup (private transfer)

18:00 – 18:30 • 30m

Private pickup from your Cairo or Giza hotel in an air-conditioned vehicle. Driver will confirm exact pickup time by WhatsApp or email one day before the cruise.

Tips from local experts:

  • Provide your full hotel name and room number at booking so the driver can find you easily.
  • Be ready in the hotel lobby 5–10 minutes before the confirmed pickup time to avoid delays.
  • Keep your phone on and available; the operator will confirm driver details via WhatsApp one day prior.

Transfer to boarding point on the Nile Corniche

18:30 – 19:00 • 30m

Short drive along the Nile Corniche to the cruise boarding dock. Driver will indicate the exact boarding point and assist with luggage if required.

Tips from local experts:

  • Have a light jacket handy—riverside breezes can be cooler after sunset.
  • If you prefer window seats in the transfer vehicle, request this when the driver meets you.
  • Confirm with the driver where you’ll be dropped for boarding so you can take a quick photo before boarding if desired.

Boarding & welcome on the Nile

Arrival at the cruise vessel, check-in with the operator’s team, and escort to your reserved private table. Crew will explain the buffet and evening timetable.

Tips from local experts:
