About Darakum Long Cruise Cairo to Aswan

The Mövenpick Darakum Cruise offers one of the longest and most complete Nile journeys, sailing between Cairo and Aswan on two routes: a 13-day itinerary from Aswan to Cairo or a 15-day itinerary from Cairo to Aswan. This Ultra Deluxe Nile River Cruise blends Moroccan-inspired décor with modern luxury, featuring spacious cabins and leisure facilities. The Darakum itinerary covers Egypt’s most iconic sites, the Pyramids of Giza, the Valley of the Kings, Karnak, and Philae Temple, along with rarely visited treasures in Middle Egypt, such as Tuna El-Gebel, Beni Hassan, Abydos, and Dendera. It’s a perfect choice for travelers seeking a deeper exploration of Egypt with the comfort of sailing the Nile in style.

If you’re short on time but still want to experience the same elegance, discover the 4- and 5-day MS Mövenpick Darakum Nile Cruises between Luxor and Aswan, offering a shorter yet equally luxurious journey.
