Nile River Cruises with Voyages Jules Verne!


Innovative specialist tour operator, Voyages Jules Verne (www.vjv.com) offers an array of competitively-priced river cruising itineraries across the globe. In Egypt, this includes a fine selection of Nile river cruises, using an eclectic and fascinating range of vessels to create an unforgettable cruising experience.

Travelling in limited group sizes and expertly guided by local English-speaking specialists, Voyages Jules Verne’s itineraries are designed to capture the true essence of a chosen destination. Each Nile river cruise includes the opportunity to enjoy new experiences in the company of like-minded travellers as well as adequate time to relax or explore.

Several of Voyages Jules Verne’s Nile river cruises include a limited number of cabins with No Single Supplement. Far from being a ‘singles club’, the company’s No Single Supplement programme enables anyone travelling on their own to join regular groups of like-minded solo travellers, as well as couples and friends journeying together, without financial penalty.
