    It was a wonderful trip that I can highly recommend! We were two friends and were lucky enough to travel with our lovely guide Achmed, who spoke very good German and always responded to our individual wishes. We mostly traveled in a small car or in a carriage (always in pairs with guide and driver). The temples are absolutely unique - but the entrance tickets have to be paid for separately on site by card. The support before and during the trip was excellent, and everything ran smoothly via WhatsApp. The cabins on the ship were clean, but the shower was often either too hot or too cold. The pool deck didn't look very inviting to me, but there are loungers where you can relax in the sun. The food was okay, but we found the drinks prices to be significantly overpriced - a bottle of water cost 200 EGP (about 10 EGP in the supermarket). However, the staff were friendly and attentive throughout. Massages are also offered on board. Overall, it was an unforgettable trip with lots of wonderful impressions and great organization!

    I hired it through Tour radar but the management, without knowing why, was taken by Egipt cruise tour pro. Despite there were more Spanish speakers on the same boat, they did not want to put us the same guide, I still do not understand it. We had very bad luck with our guide, who ripped us off , but Egipt tour responded immediately , as well as to other needs and mishaps that happened to us during the cruise. The 5 star cruise does not include wifi, nor entrance fees to the sites, I have to say that the best thing was the food, the pool, unfortunately, we could not enjoy the first day.

    We chose the 5 Day/4 Night Nile Cruise with Abu Simbel Day Trip on the MS Acamar. The ship was clean and the cabins were tidy (though for anyone over 6ft tall you'll be squatting in the shower lol). The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Most of the meals were buffet style with various cuisine options each day, little to no snack other than bar peanuts between meals which were typically 5 AM for breakfast, 1 PM for lunch and 8 PM for dinner. My fiance and I had private tours each day, excluding the day trip to Abu Simbel, which we enjoyed but that may have been just due to the season that we traveled and being the only American passengers at that time. Minimal activities offered during cruise time so bring games or some forms of entertainment. Overall, pleased with the experience.

    This 11-Day trip was the best thing we we could have booked in Egypt. Very well organised, all the drivers and guides pick you up from your accomodation perfectly on time. Guides and drivers were all super professional. We were always in contact with Hassan from Egypt Tours Pro who was super efficient with him replies at any time of day even at 4am. You will be sent the schedule a day or two before from Hassan advising you with the Itinerary for the day. All flights, accomodation, Nile Cruise, transport, ticket, guides, breakfast, lunch and dinner included. Highly recommend for any traveller wanting to experience the best Egypt has to offer with Peace of mind.

    We did a 5 Days Nile Cruise Luxor to Aswan including Abu Simbel. The guided tour was well organized. Our guide Ahmed Mohamed was very knowledgeable about ancient Egypt and answered all our questions. Ahmed is enthusiastic and one of the best tour guides we could have in Egypt. The service from Mr Hassan to book the cruise was also exceptional. After arriving in Luxor I could immediately reach him by phone or WhatsApp when I needed.
