VIEW THE SIX-MINUTE “ECLIPSE OF THE CENTURY”
FROM OUR 6-STAR, 17-NIGHT NILE RIVER CRUISE

Untether from daily life and sail into eclipse adventure in the heart of Egypt aboard AmaWaterways’ 64-passenger AmaDahlia (slide show) (deckplan). The ship is a great starting and ending point for your days of exploring Egypt’s millennia-long array of culture, history, and tradition. From the Giza Pyramids to Abu Simbel, Cairo to village Egypt, an AmaDahlia voyage will give you a transformative view of the essence of Egypt.

Plus, Insight Cruises offers you an optional program of excursions to a choice selection of the Nile River region’s monuments, temples, and tombs. We’ll be on the lookout for specific astronomical features while visiting other sites not tied to the sky yet still looming large in the world’s imagination. Luxor and Karnak temples, the Valleys of the Kings & Queens, the wondrous sites of Dendara, Abydos, Edfu, Kom Ombo, and more are on our excursion agenda.

If you’ve dreamed of visiting Egypt, please join us. You’ll love the eclipse experience! Gather unforgettable memories of the beauty of the Nile and gain appreciation of the imagination and ingenuity the ancient Egyptians used to build an astounding civilization.

Our 17-night cruise will be approximately 600 miles long.

Take in magical Nile vistas then step ashore and immerse yourself in exploring the monuments, ruins, and landscapes you’ve only imagined. Gather unforgettable memories of an astounding civilization — what better place to view a 6-minute eclipse. Join us!
