Review of a four-day Aswan to Luxor Nile cruise with Abu Simbel, Philae, Karnak, Valley of Kings, meals, and hot-air balloon.

“Nile cruise is an experience that people should do at least once in their lives; schedule is very tight but the beauty of the temples is really worth the effort. The boat is very clean and it has a small swimming pool on the roof if you want to relax, cabins are also clean and comfortable. People who works on the boat are very kind and friendly; a special thanks goes to our tour guide: Mohamed was very well prepared about history and can always reply to our questions about all the attractions; he also arranged us transportation after the tour was over.”

The belly dance and Sufi dance performances were mesmerizing,…”
