What people love about Nile River Cruises in September
- Legend of the Nile: 6-Days Tour for 5 stars Nile Cruise Aswan to Luxor & Sleeper Train Round Trip From Cairo
I really enjoyed the tour , we have seen all the sites in program and the Nile cruise was very good and unique experience, sailing and watching everyday life and beautiful landscapes. Guides Dosa and Khaled and all the drivers were very nice, helpful and passionate about Egyptology.
- River Nile Story - 4 Days 5 stars Nile Cruise Aswan to Luxor with meals and Sightseeing
Khaled was a brilliant tour guide of luxor, told us fantastic historic stories and details, great food and items to buy...would highly recommend
- 15 Days Ancient Egypt & Lake Nasser Cruise
We were delighted with our 'Ancient Egypt and Lake Nasser' tour. The 14 day trip arrangements went so smoothly, from airport pickups to boat transfers and all of the guides, drivers and group representatives were very professional. The quality of hotel and cruise accommodation was excellent and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend 'Vacations To Go Travel'.
What our customers ask about Nile Cruises in September 2025
What is the best sightseeing spots along the Nile River in September?

The Temple of Philae in Aswan provides clear views across the water while the Kom Ombo Temple and Valley of the Kings in Luxor offer more comfortable exploring conditions. The Karnak Temple Complex and Luxor Temple take on a golden glow during sunset. Visitors can book rooms at the Steigenberger Nile Palace in Luxor or the Movenpick Resort in Aswan. A TourRadar traveler shares: "Mohamed our guide from Luxor was very helpful making both sightseeing visits in Aswan & Luxor so enjoyable."
Are there any special events or festivals along the Nile River in September?
The Nile comes alive with local celebrations in September including the Abu Simbel Sun Festival when the dates align. Cruise ships like MS Concerto I put on Egyptian theme nights and traditional Galabeya parties. The Steigenberger Nile Palace hosts weekly cultural performances that showcase local traditions. One TourRadar traveler notes: "The Nubian night and Galabeya party on board were fantastic cultural experiences unique to this time of year."
What kind of accommodations are available on Nile cruises in September?
The Nile's cruise ships range from well-appointed 5-star vessels like MS Concerto I to upscale options such as the Movenpick Prince Abbas. Standard amenities include private bathrooms air conditioning and river views. Premium ships like the Steigenberger Omar El Khayam feature balcony suites. A TourRadar guest reports: "Our cabin on the Movenpick was spacious and well-appointed with amazing river views."
How much does a Nile River cruise typically cost in September?
Prices for September cruises start at 550 USD and can reach 6000 USD based on duration and comfort level.

Premium ships like the Movenpick Prince Abbas charge around 5000 USD. TourRadar data shows September rates trend lower than peak season.
What optional excursions are recommended in September?
September's mild weather suits early morning hot air balloon flights over Luxor ($100 USD) Abu Simbel temple visits ($120 USD) and evening trips to Nubian villages. TourRadar reviews highlight the Aswan High Dam tour and Karnak Temple's sound & light shows as particularly worthwhile in September's comfortable evening temperatures.

The classic route connects Luxor to Aswan with stops at Kom Ombo and Edfu temples. Premium vessels like MS Mayfair and Sonesta St. George run 3-4 night trips with Abu Simbel add-ons.
