Explore the ancient culture of Luxor and Aswan and the beauty of the River Nile.The Nile was the lifeline of ancient Egyptian civilization and today the banks of the river are dotted with ancient tombs and temples. Lying 420 miles south of Cairo, Luxor is the most dramatic historical site in Egypt - and is often referred to as the world’s greatest open air museum. Luxor is the modern day name for Thebes, the ancient capital city of the New Kingdom Pharaohs. Today, Luxor is home to more than half of Egyptian antiquities and is a must-see destination for any visitor to Egypt. Aswan is the “Jewel of the Nile”. Pink and grey granite thrusts upward through the Nubian sandstone, forming mountains, cliffs and jagged outcrops. The Nile runs clear and cold here, and endless waves of golden sand swirl against its banks.

We loved the Nile River Cruise and excursions to the temples, the dams, the specialty markets. Our guide, Mahmoud Hassan, an expert Egyptologist, gave us a vivid picture of ancient sites and shared the highlights of temple preservation. The cruise along the Nile from Luxor to Aswan had beautiful scenery and sunsets, as well as comfort amenities.

We have just had the most amazing time on our Egyptian Nile cruise with Luxor and Aswan Travel. We booked Sonesta Moon Goddess Nile Cruise and from the start Hany the agent was very responsive. We were advised 24 hours before the start of the cruise what the pick up time would be at our hotel and the private car and guide Waleed were on time. Firstly we assumed we would be part of a group tour not realising that this was a private tour just for the two of us which was amazing. Our guide stayed with us on the whole trip, briefing us on each site we were about to see. He was extremely knowledgeable about every aspect of Egyptology and brought the whole experience to life. Waleed certainly has a vast knowledge of history of Egypt that he can call upon and is passionate about the detail. He wasn't just an exceptional guide he was a wonderful person with a great sense of humour. If you are lucky enough to have Waleed on this tour you will not be disappointed. We felt very safe and well looked after and would certainly recommend this tour to others. Thank you Waleed and Hany for your great customer service.

We enjoyed very much with Nile cruise from Luxor to Aswan. Our guide, Mohammed (“MoMo”) was real expert with degree of Egyptology and 16 year of experience with passion. His explanation was not only detail, but also different angle depends on the temple. Without him, I don’t think we could enjoy the tour so much. I also would like to note, different from mega cruise tour in Caribbean or Mediterranean Sea, extra trip is managed by your travel agent, not ship company. I took additional tour to Abu Simbel and hot balloon. You may find more cheaper option, but thinking of quality including transportation early in the morning, it was reasonable.

I couldn’t have asked for a better tour company and guides. The organisation of Hani was spot on - exceeded any expectations, you knew it would just be seamless. The cruise itself was smooth, staff so so friendly and welcoming and attentive. Really felt like a mini cruise family (thank you for the orange juices!!). Loved it!

We selected this company after having seen other reviews here and having interacted with them to plan the cruise details. We were satisfied about the level of support and the trip itself. We were travelling with Sonesta Goddess boat, which was clean and preparing good food level with lots of choice. But highlight was our private guide, Mo, who is very prepared on historical/cultural sites and very helpful in supporting us for any need. We definitely advise this company and Mo as a guide !

Our trip to Egypt was superb, made especially so by the agency's exceptional arrangements regarding the tour guide, driver and the Esmeralda cruise team. Our pick up and drop off from airport was done professionally, with a clean spacious car. Ashraf, our guide, was knowledgeable and entertaining and we were like old friends when the tour ended. We would certainly recommend your company for Egypt excursions to our fellow South Africans!

It was absolutely fantastic experience, starting with excellent support and communication starting with choosing the tour and finishing with last transfer to Aswan airport: all was brilliantly done by Mr Hany El Dosouki and his team. My family had the best guide - professional egyptologist, always excellent cars and drivers to get us to the sites, fantastic ship- we were upgraded to have two suites on one of the best ships on Nile - Sun Goddess. It was a very special occasion as both my wife and I had a birthday at the end of November, it was truly very unique and unforgettable.
