- Key· January 9th, 2025Best Experience ever, to be honest i like all the details i don't like to be in rush , so we have time for tours time for just sailing and relaxing, time to explore cities, this type of tours i like so much i like to know the cultural part of each country, this was an amazing experience, the only point i would like to improve the cultural part for my self i want to experience more the local food and clothes, but any other thing was great.Show moreTrip date: January 2025
- GDGabriel· January 8th, 2025I wouldn’t recommend the 7 day package because it is completely unnecessary due to the fact that you will have two and a half day without any tours included and like everything in Egypt, you’ll need to pay extra additional costs to fill your days. The agency was very responsive and the tours were good; on the other hand, expect to waste time going to overpriced vendors that have previous financial arrangements with either the tour guide or the agency. Do yourself a favour and do a 4 day tour and research the ship that you are hiring.Show moreTrip date: December 2024

- Thomas· May 28th, 2022The first night on tge cruiseship we had a horrible room, it smelled like smoke. Only two holes as windows. The manager relocated us to an excellent room the next day. The food on the ship was of low quality and not much variation, pretty much the same everyday. The boat stayed 3 days in luxor so next time we would only go for a 3 or maximum 4 day tour as tge program is the same just more dense. Mohamed and Osama our guides did a great job and also recommended us a guide for Kairo called Abdul and his colleague Buly did greatShow moreTrip date: May 2022

Vicki
Asked on November 15th, 2024Would like to cruise from Luxor to Abu sinbal and up the Nile further if possible.
- Egyptology TravelOperator•Written November 2024
The Nile cruise sails from Luxor to Aswan and back to Luxor in case of 7 nights Nile cruise, but sailing to Abu Simbel from Luxor is impossible because the Nile is blocked by the high dam. There are few Nile cruises sail from the point behind the dam to Abu Simbel but currently not available. But we go to Abu Simbel by air conditioned car.
