Tour Overview
The Jaz Regent Nile cruise is a modern, comfortable ship at the accessible end of our luxury range, and one of the few where we publish triple-cabin fares. It sails between Luxor and Aswan on 3-night and 4-night programs, leaving on Mondays and Fridays, with full board, private guiding and entrance fees included.
Fares by cabin, September to April
| Cabin (per person) | 3 nights / 4 days | 4 nights / 5 days |
|---|---|---|
| Triple | $1,776 | $2,200 |
| Double | $1,851 | $2,286 |
| Single | $2,949 | $3,660 |
Traveling as three
A triple cabin saves $75 per person on the 3-night sailing and $86 on the 4-night compared with sharing a double. That suits a parent with two older children or three friends who are happy to share. Couples will be comfortable in a double, and solo travelers should budget for the single fare, which is noticeably higher.
The feel on board
Cabins have a contemporary look and modern amenities, and the atmosphere is relaxed rather than formal. It is a sensible pick for travelers who want reliable comfort and good views of the river, and who would rather put their budget toward extra experiences on land than toward a boutique ship.
Rates are published for September to April, the main sightseeing season. For summer travel we quote separately, and the longer 4-night sailing is often the better plan then, with more time to rest during the hottest hours.
What you see
Luxor and Aswan form the two ends of the trip, with Karnak, the Valley of the Kings, Edfu and Kom Ombo among the usual visits. Your guide is private, so the group is just your party. We confirm the precise sightseeing list when you book.
