Standard Nile Cruises in Egypt

Affordable Egypt, unforgettable memories

Standard Nile cruises are Egypt's most accessible gateway to the wonders of the Nile. These vessels offer everything essential for a magical Nile experience — comfortable cabins, friendly service, swimming pools, and excellent food — at the most affordable prices in our portfolio.

What defines a standard Nile cruise?

Standard ships are comfortable, value-focused vessels that focus on delivering the essentials beautifully without unnecessary frills. Here's what to expect:

• Cabin sizes — Typically 14-18 sqm, comfortable and well-equipped
• Dining — One main restaurant with generous buffet meals
• Service — Friendly Egyptian crew dedicated to your comfort
• Amenities — Swimming pool, sun deck, and lounge bar standard
• Atmosphere — Warm, social, and authentic — perfect for meeting fellow travelers

Who should choose standard?

Standard cruises are perfect for budget-conscious travelers, students, backpackers, families on a budget, and anyone who values experience over luxury. The temples you'll visit are exactly the same as luxury cruises. The Nile is the same. The Egyptologist guides are equally knowledgeable. The only thing different is the price tag.

The classic standard route

Our standard ships sail the iconic Luxor — Aswan corridor, with the same temple visits and shore excursions as luxury and deluxe ships. Itineraries range from 3 to 7 nights. The 3-night Aswan to Luxor route is the most popular choice among budget-conscious travelers.
