In both Luxor and Aswan the docks are in front of the Military Officers Club. We recommend flying from Cairo to either destination. The flying time from Cairo to Luxor is 1 hour, and from Cairo to Aswan it is 1 hour 30 minutes.
Driving to and from Luxor or Aswan is not usually recommended as it would require a police escort and the driving time is both long and tiring - approximately 12 hours from Cairo to Luxor, and 15 hours from Cairo to Aswan.
