MS Miriam Nile Cruise: Renovated Comfort Between Luxor and Aswan
MS Miriam Nile Cruise is a five-star Nile cruiser for travelers who want the classic Luxor–Aswan route on a ship that combines traditional river-cruise comfort with refreshed interiors. The vessel was completely overhauled in 2023 and now offers a polished setting for couples, families and small groups sailing between the major archaeological sites of Upper Egypt.
The ship has 58 cabins and suites: 32 Twin Superior cabins and 23 Double Superior cabins of about 20 sqm, two Royal Suites with balconies of about 40 sqm, and one Presidential Suite of about 31 sqm. All accommodation overlooks the Nile and includes an en-suite bathroom, individually controlled air conditioning, flat-screen television, minibar, internal phone, safe and coffee facilities.
4-Day and 5-Day Nile Cruise Routes
Pure Nile Tours offers the two classic MS Miriam itineraries: a 4 Days / 3 Nights Aswan to Luxor sailing associated with Monday departures, and a 5 Days / 4 Nights Luxor to Aswan sailing associated with Thursday departures. Exact sailing dates and cabin availability are reconfirmed for the requested travel date before booking.
Depending on direction, the itinerary links Aswan, Kom Ombo, Edfu and Luxor. Sightseeing can include Philae Temple, the Unfinished Obelisk, Kom Ombo Temple, Edfu Temple, Karnak, Luxor Temple, the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut Temple and the Colossi of Memnon, together with optional experiences such as Abu Simbel, a Nubian village visit or a Luxor hot-air balloon.
Onboard Facilities
MS Miriam is designed as a full-size luxury Nile cruise rather than a small boutique boat. Its facilities include a spacious restaurant with Nile views, 24-hour reception, a wellness area with fitness and massage facilities, souvenir and jewelry shops, and a broad sundeck with swimming pool, sunbeds and a top-deck bar.
The ship works well for first-time Egypt visitors who want a comfortable floating-hotel base while following the essential temple route. Travelers who are comparing sailing styles can browse our Nile cruises in Egypt guide and our Nile Cruise Luxor to Aswan prices guide before choosing a cruise.
