Arrival & Departure Guidelines

Please note: This package three-night Cleopatra cruise does not include guided excursions by default. However, you are welcome to book any sightseeing tours directly with us upon arrival at our reception for an additional fee. The guidelines below apply if you plan to arrange guided excursions with us on your first or last day. If you are seeking the same length and cruise package but with all guided excursions included, accompanied by a certified Egyptologist tour guide and offered in English, German, French, Spanish, or Italian, we invite you to discover our three-night Osiris Odyssey cruise package — [click here to learn more].

We recommend booking your flight to arrive in Aswan before eleven in the morning. This time refers to your landing at Aswan Airport, not the time you reach the ship. Our representative will meet you at the airport with a welcome sign, assist with your luggage, and transfer you directly to the Nile cruise ship. Upon arrival, you’ll be welcomed at reception for check-in and offered a refreshing welcome drink. Once everything is completed, it’s usually around one in the afternoon – the perfect time for your cabin to be ready so we can hand you the keys and you can settle in comfortably.

Arriving earlier at Aswan Airport, whether at dawn or in the early morning, is absolutely fine. Our complimentary pick-up service operates twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, and we’ll be there to welcome you. Please note that while you’ll be able to board the ship upon arrival, your cabin may not be ready before one in the afternoon. In that case, you’re welcome to relax in the reception area and enjoy the ship’s amenities until your room is available. If your cabin is ready earlier, we’ll gladly give you access right away. However, if the ship is full and the previous guest hasn’t yet checked out, we’ll need to wait until housekeeping has cleaned and prepared the room before you can enter.

If you’re unable to arrive early on the first day, that’s absolutely fine. We’ll adjust the program so you can still enjoy the missed visits on the second day, Tuesday. However, please note that in this case, you won’t have time to join the optional Abu Simbel excursion, which is normally scheduled for Tuesday morning.

We recommend booking your flight from Luxor after four in the afternoon. This timing ensures you can fully enjoy the morning sightseeing program, which finishes around twelve noon, while still having a smooth journey to your departure point. After the tours, we’ll return to the ship for checkout and luggage collection, then provide a direct complimentary transfer to Luxor Airport. By scheduling your departure after four in the afternoon, you’ll have plenty of time for check-in and security at the airport without any rush, guaranteeing you make your flight comfortably and on time.

This is our recommended schedule and set of tips for your arrival and departure. If your flight does not align exactly with these times, please contact us at online@cityandseaadonis.com. We will be happy to review your individual travel plans and provide our best recommendation. We always strive to accommodate our guests’ needs and remain as flexible as possible whenever we can.
