The Steigenberger Minerva carries the same trusted German hospitality name behind Alexandria’s Cecil Hotel onto the Nile — a larger ship than most boutique operators, with 77 cabins split between a Nubian-styled mezzanine level and a more classic executive deck.
The full sightseeing program covers essentially the entire Luxor–Aswan circuit — Karnak, Luxor Temple, the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut’s Temple, the Colossi of Memnon, Edfu, Kom Ombo, Philae, and the Aswan High Dam — all led by English-speaking Egyptologist guides included in the fare.
Two distinct interior styles aboard one ship — a Nubian-inspired mezzanine level and a classic executive deck.
Sails 3 and 4-night itineraries between Luxor and Aswan on a weekly schedule. Bookable directly through Steigenberger or standard cruise platforms.
