Cruising on the Nile

This was certainly one of the highlights of our trip. Everyone loved cruising the Nile and the sightseeing along the way. We had a 5 star boat called the "Royal Ruby" which was beautifully appointed. First night on board we had a Galabea Party where we all dressed in costume and danced the night away - great night - I think we ended up being the entertainment. The next night's entertainment was an Egyptian male dancer who was fantastic and a belly dancer. Staff were excellent, view from the upper deck was fantastic and food was good.

Some of the sights we saw along the way were Kom Ombo, Edfu, Temple of Isis, High Dam, St Simeons Monastry, Temple of Nobles and more.
