Default Tour of the Nile

Are there boat tours that go down the Nile? Cruises maybe?

Yes, there are cruises. If you google 'nile cruises' there are a whole bunch of them to choose from It's a cool idea if you like cruises, a little different from the usual cruises to the caribbean etc.

Yeah I think that is why I am attracted to this idea - something really unique when compared to the small cities on ships that people usually cruise on.

Yes, the Nile river offers this exciting opportunity. I would also suggest to visit some of it's tributaries as well, not many are aware of the blue Nile but this can be very interesting. I think there is a cavern as well near the Blue Nile.

Do these cruises follow the river for its whole length or are they limited to a few miles each?

Definitely. There are a lot of ways to go down the Nile, and they are awesome. I haven't personally been on one, but I had to research it for something.
