The temple of Dendara is dedicated to Hathor, the mother of the gods, the celestial cow who brought them into the world, and the lady of joy, beauty, and love. On one of the chapel's ceiling, there are amazing astronomical scenes of Goddess Nut, the goddess of the sky as well as the Zodiac signs.

The ship is a floating hotel with shops, fine dining, bar and lounge with nightly entertainment. Relax on the sun deck around the swimming pool where you will enjoy the picturesque beauty along the banks while cruising on the Nile.

Before checking in our boat, we cross the Nile to the west bank. Our first stop will be the Valley of the Kings where we visit colorful tombs that were carved out of rocky cliffs to safeguard the mummies and rich furnishings from grave-robbers.

Our next stop will be Queen Hatshipsut's temple. Wanting to honor her father (god Amun), she asked her architect not to spare any effort in making this the best of its kind. Visit Memnon Colossi on the way back to the East bank. In the evening we will visit Luxor temple. It was completely buried in sand for many centuries which allowed it to be one of the most preserved temples. The temple has many beautifully decorated columns, a huge open court, a massive façade, a huge pylon, and two seated statues of Ramses II.

We continue sailing south to Kom Ombo temple. It is the only temple in Egypt that is dedicated to two gods, Horus and Sobek. This temple was originally built for worshiping Horus, but after the increasing number of crocodiles on the island, the temple was demolished and reconstructed to worship Sobek (crocodile shaped god) for protection from the crocodiles.

In the evening, enjoy a Galabiyah (Egyptian gown) party as we continue sailing south to Aswan.

Our first stop will be the amazing Phalie temple. It is considered to be the most beautiful temple in the Nile valley dedicated to Isis and Osiris. The temple became submerged in the Nile after building the first Aswan dam. With the help of UNESCO, Philae temple was completely moved to its new location.

Later we visit the Unfinished Obelisk which lies in its original location in a granite quarry. It was abandoned when some cracks appeared in the rock during its construction. Had this obelisk been completed, it would have been the largest obelisk ever cut.

In the afternoon we will sail the Nile in a graceful Egyptian sailboat known as a "Felucca" and travel across the Nile while enjoying the breeze and some traditional songs along the way.
