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.”

“There was a lot to do in a very short time. This does mean we all had plenty of rest after at the read sea. The day 1 optional trip (25$) to the nubian village - take it you won't regret it. Make sure you have DOLLARS with you not euro or GBP.

Get 1 dollar bills (lots) from your country before coming over. You are also allowed to bring 5000 Egyptian Pound per person. Lots of excursions with lots…”

“Mahomed el Khady was our guide. He was the best guide I have ever had the enjoyed being around. He was incredibly knowledgeable and pleasant. He took time to explain the very confusing order and hierarchy of the ancient Egyptian gods and the ancient Kings. Truly a pleasure. Being in Mahomed's group was clearly the highlight of this entire tour.”

Review of a 4-day Aswan to Luxor Nile cruise with Abu Simbel, Philae, ancient temples, meals, and a Luxor hot-air balloon ride.

“We were on the cruise for 4 days and 3 nights. Mohamed Gobram was our guide, everything was very punctual. The experience was good. The meals were 10/10 at the restaurant. They serve local alcoholic drinks that range from approximately 3 to 7 USD. Drinks at meals are not included but cost approximately 2 dollars, you can bring your own water for free. The temples are beautiful! Be careful that tips are not included, you must pay 15 dollars per person for this which includes the entire trip, it is worth it since the guide is committed to explaining everything (we spoke Spanish but some visitors helped us translate)”
