Life Aboard Luxury Viking Osiris Nile River Cruise

Join us for our Egypt travel vlog of our Viking Nile River Cruise and full cruise ship tour; Viking Cruises launched their sister ships Viking Osiris, Aton, and Ra for their "Pharaohs & Pyramids" itinerary; boasting that they are the most "upscale" and "sophisticated " passenger ships in Egypt. Join us for a complete journey up the Nile on Viking to see what a luxurious voyage on one of these ships is is really like. This trip cost us $20k for two including airfare, but not even including the extensions to Israel and Jordan. Was it worth it? Decide for yourself.

We hope to cruise the Nile on the Viking Hathor in November this year. Do Viking agents assist U.S. citizens with the $25 visa on arrival at the Cairo airport?

Do you have to pay extra for the excursions or are they included? Beautiful trip!! ❤

[buramiko]

A few questions, I suppose Cairo hotel is not included ? so in Cairo does the tour coach come to pick you up at your hotel ? How to meet up with the group since everyone is staying at different hotels? Is the Cairo-Luxor flight included ? What kind of airplane was that? I have some flying phobia 😅 thx

[lbcmotors]

you can’t say you drank all day if you don’t start in the morning!😂

Did you have Viking book your air tickets or self booked?

this has NO Egyption vibe AT ALL. I think this is so sad.
