Nile Cruise, Egypt: TUI BLUE Nile Imperial Review | Luxor to Aswan A seven-night journey along the Nile – from Luxor to Aswan and back – aboard the TUI BLUE Nile Imperial. This adults-only cruise blends comfort with history, offering breathtaking views, cultural encounters, and access to some of Egypt’s most iconic landmarks.
Albert and his friend Riccardo start their journey in Florence, Italy, traveling to Luxor before embarking on the Nile Imperial. From the moment they step on board, the experience is nothing short of spectacular. The ship itself is a floating retreat, with panoramic cabins, two sun decks with Nile views, and a range of onboard activities. Whether it’s cocktail-making, fruit carving, or meditative mornings on deck, every day offers something unique. The crew and BLUE Guides make the journey even more special, with Craig and Eric ensuring everything runs smoothly, from excursions to onboard activities. Everyone on board transforms the cruise into an experience that feels both personal and enriching.
The adventure takes them through Egypt’s ancient wonders. In Luxor, they explore the legendary Valley of the Kings, walk through the awe-inspiring Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, and witness the towering Colossi of Memnon. One of the most breathtaking moments of the trip happens at sunrise, as Albert and Riccardo take to the skies in a hot air balloon ride over Luxor, floating above temples and vast desert landscapes in a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
The journey continues to Edfu, where the Temple of Horus, one of Egypt’s best-preserved temples, offers an unforgettable glimpse into the past. Kom Ombo provides a look at ancient medical practices through its detailed carvings, while Abu Simbel, with its colossal statues and breathtaking interiors, is a true highlight of the trip.
Sailing along the Nile, the experience is more than just history - it’s about immersion into Egypt’s culture. A visit to a Nubian village brings Albert and Riccardo closer to the vibrant traditions of the Nubian people, their colorful homes, and their warm hospitality. A peaceful felucca ride on the Nile offers a moment of reflection, floating through history itself.
Life aboard the Nile Imperial is just as enriching as the excursions. Whether it’s relaxing on the Sun Deck, cooling off in the Lounge Bar, or browsing the onboard Bazaar for handmade jewelry, there’s always something to discover. The evenings come alive with traditional performances, including a Nubian dance show and an Oriental night, bringing Egyptian culture to life in a way that feels authentic and immersive.
As the journey comes to an end, Albert and Riccardo reflect on one of the best experiences of their lives. From the grandeur of ancient temples to the serenity of Nile sunsets, this Nile cruise is more than just a trip – it’s a connection to the heart of Egypt.
