private shore excursions
Private shore excursions on board MS Royal Viking offer a more personalised and in-depth way to experience the treasures of ancient Egypt. While the standard itinerary includes expertly guided group tours, private excursions allow guests to explore iconic landmarks at their own pace with a dedicated Egyptologist guide and private transportation. Whether you wish to spend extra time inside the Valley of the Kings, enjoy a quieter sunrise visit to Philae Temple, or arrange a special tour to Abu Simbel, these tailor-made experiences provide greater flexibility and comfort. Private tours are ideal for couples seeking a more intimate cultural experience, families wanting customised pacing, or travellers with specific historical interests. You can also request exclusive felucca rides, private carriage tours in Edfu, or curated photography experiences along the Nile. These optional upgrades enhance your cruise with added privacy, deeper insight and a seamless VIP-style journey — perfect for making your 2026 or 2027 Nile cruise even more memorable.
