TROY PADILLA

My God, the three ways to cruise the Nile in Egypt are so powerful!

🇪🇬 The Nile, known as the longest river in the world, flows through the East African Rift Valley, into the Sahara Desert, across Egypt, and finally into the Mediterranean. It is the center of ancient Egyptian civilization, and most important cultural and historical relics, such as the pyramids, the Temple of Luxor and the Temple of Karnak, are located near the river. ⛵ Of course, it is a must to come to Egypt to cruise the Nile. For those with limited travel time, in addition to cruising for more than two days by mail, I have summarized the ways to cruise the Nile in less than 3 hours, there are probably three: 1⃣️Sailing boat Take an Arabian-style single-masted sailing boat in Luxor, and move slowly across the river with the natural wind. In the evening, the setting sun just dyed the Nile red, and thoughts traveled through the years with the leisurely river. Immersed in exotic customs, this comfort will often remind me in the future. (Picture 1-Picture 5) 📍Address: East Bank Pier, Luxor, Egypt ⏰Time: 40 minutes (16:30-17:10) 💰Price: 20-30 Egyptian pounds 2️⃣Motorboat This is a transportation tool attached to the hot air balloon project, back and forth from the east bank to the west bank, you can enjoy the night and sunrise of the Nile. At four o'clock in the morning, the motorboat travels on the Nile, the sky is full of stars, and the lights on both banks are twinkling; when returning, the sun rises from the east bank, big and round, and the rivers and mountains slowly wake up in the morning light. It took 20 minutes to go, and 30 minutes to come back. The motorboat sent us directly to the hotel. (Picture 6-Picture 13) 📍Address: East and West Bank Piers, Luxor, Egypt ⏰Time: 50 minutes (East Bank 4:40-5:00, West Bank 7:15-7:45) 💰Price: Included in the price of the hot air balloon, booking the hot air balloon yourself is about 50 US dollars, and the tour group charges 165 US dollars 3⃣️Cruise Cruising the Nile at night is a good choice, and the price is directly proportional to the size of the ship and the service. Cruise for ten minutes to buy your own ticket, about 25-30 Egyptian pounds; self-guided tour for about 2 hours, about 350 Egyptian pounds; follow the tour group for about 3 hours, you need 80 US dollars. I am a tour group price tour of the Nile. The international party atmosphere on the cruise ship is full, friends from all over the world gather together to cheer; the ship provides a rich dinner and various desserts; there are also wonderful belly dance performances, folk dance performances, etc. Standing on the side of the ship, the breeze on the Nile, watching the sunset dyed golden river gradually retreat, the colorful two banks come into view, on the economically backward Egyptian land, it can also be called beautiful! (Picture 14-Picture 20) 📍Address: Cairo Pier, Egypt ⏰Time: 3 hours (17:00-19:00 ) 💰Price: 80 US dollars
