What to expect

Treat yourself to an evening of fun at Aswan's historic Legend Old Cataract hotel, where the golden hues of sunset drape the Nile in awe-inspiring colours.

The Old Cataract Hotel has been around since 1899, and it's been a favourite with travellers looking for a bit of luxury and inspiration. Its storied halls have played host to a bunch of big-name guests, from mystery writer Agatha Christie, whose stay influenced her riveting narratives, to leaders like Winston Churchill and François Mitterrand, among other bigwigs. Every corner of the hotel has stories to tell, giving your tea experience a rich historical background.

When you arrive, you'll be welcomed onto the elegant terrace of this legendary hotel. You can chill out in style as you enjoy the famous "afternoon tea", with premium teas, pastries, finger sandwiches and traditional treats, while you take in stunning views of the Nile and Elephantine Island.

As the sun sets and casts a magical glow over the river, you'll be able to make some memories that'll last a lifetime. Whether you're into history, romance or just want to chill, this experience has it all: elegance, tradition and stunning scenery. And when it's all over, you'll be comfortably returned to your cruise or hotel, with memories of the beauty and majesty of Aswan.
