Frequently Asked Questions

City and Sea Adonis is a luxury Nile Cruise Ship offering an unforgettable journey between Luxor and Aswan. Boasting 60 deluxe cabins, including both single and double options, it provides guests with unparalleled luxury and comfort. Distinguished by the largest sundeck on the Egyptian Nile, the most spacious swimming pool, and a Jacuzzi, City and Sea Adonis prides itself on its exceptional amenities. It has been awarded a five-star deluxe rating by the Egyptian Tourism Authority, reflecting its outstanding quality and service.

Our travel agency group in Egypt is called “City and Sea Travel Group,” and our cruise ship is named “City and Sea Adonis.”

“City” symbolizes the cultural and historical richness of Egypt, particularly the vibrant cities of Luxor, Aswan, Cairo, Hurghada, and others, which are steeped in ancient wonders and modern-day energy. “Sea” refers to the majestic waters of Egypt, including the Red Sea, Mediterranean Sea, and Nile River, which serve as the backdrop for your journey.

The name “Adonis” comes from Greek mythology, where Adonis was not a god, but a mortal man of extraordinary beauty. He was loved by the goddess Aphrodite and also by Persephone, the queen of the underworld. His story symbolizes beauty, youth, and the transient nature of life. Adonis’s journey represents themes of renewal and transformation, as his departure from the world led to the changing of the seasons.

In the context of our cruise, we see Adonis as a metaphorical figure: a foreigner from Greece, drawn to the beauty of Egypt and the allure of the Nile. Just as Adonis embarked on a journey of exploration and discovery, so too do our guests aboard City and Sea Adonis, immersing themselves in Egypt’s timeless history, captivating landscapes, and vibrant culture.

We operate our Nile cruise between Luxor and Aswan. The cruise starts every Thursday in Luxor, arriving in Aswan on Monday, and then returns to Luxor on Thursday to begin the journey again.

Our Nile Cruise Ship offers a comprehensive journey along the Nile, with docking points at Luxor, Edfu, Kom Ombo, and Aswan. The primary docking locations are in Luxor and Aswan, providing convenient access to these historic cities. The cruise begins and ends in Luxor, where we dock directly in front of the Arcan Etabe Luxor Hotel on Kornish Al Nile, near the Luxor Temple—an ideal scenic starting point for your Nile River Cruise. In Aswan, the main docking station is near the Sama Aswan Buildings. Along the way, you will explore the cultural and historical wonders of Egypt with stops at notable sites.
You can start your Nile cruise holiday on Thursdays in Luxor or on Mondays in Aswan, depending on the package you select: 3-night, 4-night, or 7-night Nile cruise. Detailed information for each package is available on the respective package page. This is important for planning your trip with us.
City and Sea Adonis offers a range of Nile cruise packages to cater to all preferences. These include the Osiris Odyssey (a 3-night cruise with guided tours from Aswan to Luxor), Horus Holiday (a 4-night cruise with guided tours from Luxor to Aswan), Amun Adventure (a 7-night cruise with guided tours from Luxor to Aswan and back), 3-Night Cleopatra Cruise (cruise-only, from Aswan to Luxor without excursions), 4-Night Cleopatra Cruise (cruise-only, from Luxor to Aswan without excursions), 7-Night Cleopatra Cruise (cruise-only, from Luxor to Aswan and back without excursions), and Pharaoh Paradise (a 7-night cruise with guided tours plus a 7-night beach holiday in Hurghada).

For many travelers — including citizens of the European Union, United Kingdom, United States, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Norway, and Switzerland — Egypt offers a visa on arrival.

However, some countries must obtain a visa before traveling to Egypt, such as:

  • China

  • South Africa

If you’re from one of these countries, we kindly ask that you contact the nearest Egyptian embassy or consulate in your country and complete the visa application directly. We are not able to assist with pre-arrival visa processing for these nationalities.

City and Sea Travel Group was founded in 2010 and is a family-owned company with deep roots in Egyptian tourism. Our executive team has over 40 years of experience in the travel industry, specializing in Nile cruises and curated Egypt experiences.

This long-standing expertise means we know exactly how to deliver smooth, authentic, and unforgettable journeys for our guests — whether it’s your first time in Egypt or your tenth.

Yes, absolutely! We offer ready-made cruise packages that you can book instantly — perfect if you want a smooth and structured experience.

But we also go beyond the cruise. Thanks to our wide network of trusted hotel and resort partners across Egypt, we can help you plan a custom journey anywhere you like — whether it’s relaxing in Hurghada, exploring the history of Alexandria, or enjoying the beaches of Sharm El Sheikh.

If you already have a vision in mind — for example, combining a cruise with a transfer to another city, or adding extra days of sightseeing — just tell us. We’ll craft a fully customized itinerary just for you, with premium service and seamless coordination. These tailor-made extensions come at an extra cost but offer the highest level of comfort and personalization.

The best time to enjoy a Nile cruise is from September to May, when the weather is pleasant and perfect for sightseeing and outdoor excursions.

We do not operate during the summer months (June to August), as it can get extremely hot in Upper Egypt. We also use this period for seasonal maintenance, planning, and renovations to ensure the highest quality experience for our guests when the cruising season resumes.

Thank you so much — we truly appreciate your kind words! You can leave a review for City and Sea Adonis on our official Google Business listing or on Tripadvisor, where many of our future guests go to read about real experiences. Your feedback means the world to us and helps others discover the magic of cruising the Nile with us.

Absolutely not. We believe in full transparency. Our packages are clearly detailed, so you’ll know exactly what’s included and what’s not before you book — no fine print, no surprises.

We have zero hidden fees. Everything from accommodation and meals to included excursions and transfers is outlined upfront. Optional costs like tipping, personal expenses, or visa fees are mentioned clearly so you can plan with confidence.

Yes! You can reserve an entire deck or even the full ship for weddings, retreats, company events, or large families. Group discounts and custom itineraries are available on request.
