Norwegian Sky Egypt Shore Excursion from Safaga Port (16–17 September)
2-Day Luxor Overnight Tour from Norwegian Sky Cruise with Narmer Tours
When the Norwegian Sky arrives at Safaga Port on 16 September at 9:00 AM, cruise guests have a unique opportunity to discover one of the world's greatest archaeological destinations.

Designed especially for Norwegian Sky cruise passengers, this overnight journey includes Egypt's most famous historical treasures while ensuring a timely return to Safaga Port by approximately 7:00 PM on 17 September before your ship departs.
Whether you are traveling as a couple, with family, or with friends, Narmer Tours offers professionally organized shore excursions with experienced Egyptologists, modern transportation, carefully selected accommodation, and seamless port transfers.
