Jaz Crown Jubilee - Seven-Night Nile Cruise
Live a life of luxury and uncover the ancient wonders along the banks of the Nile onboard the Steigenberger Minerva.
Overview
Weigh anchor and set sail for ancient wonders!
There could hardly be a better way to explore the marvels of ancient Egypt than by boat. It's a time-honoured tradition, with the first steamboats carrying tourists sailing up the river in the late 19th century. But rest assured the boats have had a facelift since then.
Jaz Crown Jubilee treats you to a five-star experience from the moment your step aboard in Luxor. The carefully-curated itinerary ticks off some of the area's most iconic historical sites across the seven days you'll spend on board - including Valley of the Kings, Edfu Temple, Abu Simbel, and the Karnak and Luxor Temples - alongside swish cocktail parties, bountiful dinners, and plenty of time to unwind.
