Totally disappointing ship
First the shop was not what I expected- the photos showed a super ship and this one was far from it. The Steigenberger Legacy is an old small ship with practically nothing in board except a dining room, tiny pool and big sun deck there was supposed to be some entertainment but that was either cancelled or passengers didn’t show up
In any case it was a total disappointment. If I wanted tours I had to pay a high amount for the little that was offered snd at the hottest hours.

Great experience!
We had a great time, many thanks to our guide Mohamed Wafa! He took care of us during the whole itinerary. Mohamed was really enthusiastic sharing with us all the stories about ancient Egypt and making our stay as easy as possible. We sailed with the Blue Shadow, a nice and clean boat with a great sun deck. Food was good, and if you want to save some money buy water in a supermarket during/after the day trips.
One highlight was the Hot Air Balloon ride, highly recommended.
Greetings from Simon & Anna to Mohamed.

Amazing trip
Most of the monuments visited were truly amazing, especially Abu Simbel temple, Luxor temple, valley of the kings. We were in small group of nice people. The tour guide Ismael was great at explaining and always helpful. Waking up as early as 3 or 4 AM two days out of four (for Abu Simbel and hot balloon) was needed but it was worth it.

Sabry, the best guide of Egypt!!!!
The cruise was the best experience of Egypt. The main reason was Sabry, our guide who made the experience memorable. He was a very knowledgeable egyptologist, creating great vibes in the group and making us immerse in the pharaonic ancient stories. His language skills (in our case Spanish) were very proficient which made the experience more enjoyable. I would highly recommend doing this cruise, specially with Sabry.

Excellent cruise, nice guide, amazing sights
We had an excellent time seeing all the sights along the Nile.
Our guide Ahmed was very knowledgeable, helpful and fun.
The organisation of the tour was great; the staff were helpful and checked-in with us to make sure everything went smoothly.
The boat was nice, the staff on the boat were friendly. Food was good.
All in all it was an excellent holiday, seeing the different temples and sights along the river.

Overall the trip was very...
Overall the trip was very good. Ismail was a fantastic guide, incredibly knowledgeable, flexible, and able to assist on all tour-related matters and even personal logistics. Heba was very helpful with support. Be prepared for a busy schedule with early start days, 4-5am starts most days. The activities are all fun, but if you are looking for a trip where you spend more time sitting on the boat in the sun as you float down the Nile, there is really only one long window (>1-2 hours) for that in this trip. You will also be sharing the boat with many other tours of different nationalities, and you will also be traveling at the same time as many other cruise boats so be prepared to share the boat and tour sites. That said, Ismail does a great job of navigating these things and finding you unique experiences in between. The boat staff are friendly and helpful. The food is decent but we definitely enjoyed the food more when we stopped at local restaurants. Overall a very good experience for the price.

You’ll leave wanting more
Very good way to experience Egypt without any headaches, our time with the tour was wonderful and we left actually with some regrets for not going on the longer cruise.
Our experience was this good in no small part due to our guide Mostafa Abdo, who speaks very good Portuguese and is very knowledgeable.

Crucero Tuya
Nos tocó el barco Tuya, excelente atención y comida muy variada. Hablamos con Heba de la agencia quien siempre estuvo atenta a responder a toda hora y ayudándonos con el viaje. Sabry nuestro guía fue sin dudas el mejor, habla Perfecto español, fue muy atento y amable en todo momento pidan tener el tour con él. Totalmente recomendable, sin dudas lo volvería elegir.
