Egypt has a decent railway network that connects the Nile valley, the Nile Delta and the Suez Canal. Additionally, there is no better way to take in views of the Nile Valley than with a train ride. There are sleeper trains that operate between Cairo and Luxor and Aswan that leave from the capital around 09:00 pm and arrives into Luxor at 04:00 am and Aswan around 07:00 am.
