- YNyosva· August 25th, 2025The truth is I give it two stars because of the guides and the tour, the 5 star cruise and the air are a robbery in every way, the Semiramis 2 cruise is a boat that should be remodeled or discarded because it is super old and poorly maintained, a complete disaster in its rooms, lobby, dirty mattresses, furniture, towels and bathrooms. They are a shame to put a 5 star cruise, the same with the plane, a complete robbery of low cost in Cairo, everything is perfect. You arrive at Luxur, your misfortune begins when you go to eat, you will pay 5 dollars for a 10 cent water bottle, they do not even give you a glass when you sit down at the table, a total lack. The tour is perfect, the guide as well, the dining room staff very friendly and helpful, the porters, another disaster, they broke my suitcases when taking them from the parking lot to the river fishing boats (cruise), the only one without music on the entire Nile, all the others. Lively music, fun, ours the dirtiest and dull, the food The head chef is super special, along with his chef. If there are 5 stars for them, it's the same as for the guides.Show moreTrip date: August 2025

- NDNancy· June 1st, 2025I was really lucky to have Dasha for my main tour guide. She was a wonderful guide at the sites and she was very helpful with other transportation arrangements I had to make The ship, the Sunrise was very comfortable and the food was really great. I was a little taken a back to find I had to buy drinking water I was booked into Truly Egypt Tours thru TourRador. I was told the price which was quite high. I paid it and after the start of the tour I was asked to pay more.

- DSDana· May 31st, 2025This was our 2nd trip with Truly Egypt Tours. The tour was private and everything has been perfect. Nice hotels, great cruise in the M/S Ciela, and excellent communication throughout the initial planning stages and the time during our tour. Our guide, Medhat, who we had during our last tour, was awesome as usual! Couldn't ask for a better guide! Great time here, and great to see old and familiar faces again. A great company who cares about their guests experience. We love Truly Egypt Tours and Egypt! We will be back as we are thinking about moving to Egypt part time, such a welcoming country. Thanks Mac, Med, and Tony!! Our family of 4 had a private tour and had requested Medhat for our guide (as this was our 2nd trip with Truly Egypt Tours and had Med the last time in 2023). The trip was perfect - thanks Mac for working with me and making this happen for my family! Everything was perfect and went smoothly as expected. Med was awesome as usual. We had some issues with our son in law and illness, and Med helped to get a Dr to come on board to evaluate him and provide medications. Very helpful!The ship, M/S Ciela, was beautiful and staff was very professional and friendly. We had a great 7 night cruise. Our stay at the Steigenberger Achti and then in Giza at the Cairo Pyramids Hotel were both good as well. We had Marwa as our guide in Cairo, and We had Marwa in Cairo and she was excellent. She allowed us to change some of the itinerary due to son in law being ill and understood what we did and didn't want to see. She was excellent. Wish we had more time to get to know her- loved her and Med. Great job as well by Tony, the Cairo rep and arranger of our pick up and drop offs. Just a very good job by everyone at Truly Egypt Tours!! I'm a person who knows what they want in a tripz and Mac organized everything according to our wishes. Thanks to all for this memorable experience!!!Show moreTruly Egypt Tours commented on this reviewThank you so much for your kind words and for choosing Truly Egypt Tours for the second time!

- Hharry· March 2nd, 2025I recently had the pleasure of joining Truly Egypt Tour for a luxury Nile cruise and pyramids adventure, and I can confidently say it was one of the most incredible experiences of my life! From the moment we boarded the cruise, I was captivated by the stunning views of the Nile and the luxurious accommodations. The ship was beautifully appointed, with spacious cabins, elegant dining areas, and multiple lounges where we could relax and take in the scenery. Every detail was designed for comfort and style, making our stay truly special. What truly set this experience apart, however, was the amazing staff. Every member of the crew was friendly, attentive, and genuinely eager to make our journey unforgettable. They went above and beyond to ensure that all our needs were met, and their warm hospitality made us feel right at home. A highlight of our trip was our guide, Mac. His extensive knowledge of Egypt's history and culture was evident in every tour. He was not only informative but also engaging and enthusiastic, making each visit to the pyramids and temples come alive. Mac’s passion for the ancient world was contagious, and he answered all our questions with patience and expertise. We felt fortunate to have him guiding us through such iconic sites. The excursions to the pyramids were nothing short of breathtaking. Standing before the Great Pyramid of Giza was a surreal experience, and Mac provided fascinating insights that enriched our visit. The entire itinerary was well-planned, allowing us to enjoy both the historical landmarks and the serene beauty of the Nile. In summary, my experience with Truly Egypt Tour was exceptional. From the luxurious cruise to the attentive staff and outstanding guide, every aspect of the journey was meticulously crafted to provide a memorable adventure. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore the wonders of Egypt in style and comfort. Thank you, Truly Egypt Tour, for an unforgettable experience!Show moreTrip date: February 2025
- SHSheraz· January 12th, 2025It was a good experience. We loved the Nile cruise. We were on MS Zeina but I felt every other cruise was better looking and more clean than Zeina. But the cabins were clean and staff was very polite and helpful. We had our Tour guide Medhet. He was excellent and very kind person. Very patient with all our requests. Always on time. Transport was excellent and always on time. We had problem with delayed domestic flights and it was tiring. This was out of anyone's control. We were given the option to buy our own entrance tickets for all the attracrion or tour company could buy these for us. We were told that its about equal plus the tip for cruise staff. We paid the company for all our temple and meuseum entrance tickets. I felts we paid about 80 to 90 dollars per person extra to company according to my calculations at the end so I would advise buy tickets yourself please and save the money. Communication with tour guides was easy on WhatsApp. And Communication with tour company was good via tourradar app. The hotel we stayed in Tolip Garden in Gardenia City was fine and clean. It was far away from old Cairo but is near to few Malls to go and visit. Breakfast was included which was good. Overall the experience was nice.Show moreTruly Egypt Tours commented on this reviewThank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that you had an amazing experience.

Asked on August 25th, 2025I am planning a trip to Egypt together with two friends beginning of December this year. We have waited for the opening of Grand Egyptian Museum. Now we have read that the postponed opening has finally been set for 1 November. So I wonder if we book the trip including Cairo and Nile cruise starting 5 December can we be sure that it will include a visit to GEM? Also I have read that during the cruise the ships have to run the motors also at night and that it is best to have a cabin midships. Is it possible to book a cabin more high up and midship and be sure to get it.
- Truly Egypt ToursOperator•Written August 2025
We're thrilled you're considering an adventure with Truly Egypt Tours. I'm glad to confirm that your adventure does include a visit to the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM). Additionally, your cabin will indeed be located on the upper deck, right in the middle of the ship, which promises wonderful views and easy access to the ship's amenities.
