The afternoon unfolds at the rhythm of the river - visit the wheelhouse to see the Nile from the captain's perspective, linger over afternoon tea on deck, and let the unhurried beauty of the journey become the destination itself.","day_hotel":"44435","meals_included_list":["breakfast","lunch","dinner"]},{"itinerary_day_image":["8600"],"day_title":"10 March 2027 (Wed) Esna - Edfu - Kom Ombo - Aswan","itinerary_content":" Cruising in Nile River<\/strong>\r\nThe Nile carries Historia southward through the morning as you enjoy a leisurely breakfast.
