Amazing cruise with an extraordinary guide!
We had a great time at the cruise with Imperial Egypt. The ship was in good condition, the rooms where cosy and comfortable. The food quite good as well.
Our guide Mustafa Ragab was a really helpful and kind man, he helped us with so many things, like getting a simcard, getting around to ATMs or shops we would like to see. He also has a great knowledge about the egyptian history and could answer every question, that we had. So we are really grateful for the time with him!
We heartly recommend the cruise and guide!

haty is a very good guide.
I asked several guides along the way and haty was noticeably better than everyone else. The average Egyptian guide just follows the book and tells the same thing as a wiki, but haty is different. He has a lot of stories and his own ideas and is able to express impressive content very vividly. Normally, a scenic guide is not worth your dedicated money, but haty is different and he deserves to hire him specifically.
The downside, of course, is that he doesn't explain it all the way through, and it would be nice to have plenty of time to show off his wealth of knowledge more.

Amazing tour!
My wife and I participated. We had a 4-day/3-night course from Aswan to Luxor, plus an optional tour to the Temple of Absimbel, which was quite a hard schedule but very enjoyable. The group was compact with six people, including us, but we were really lucky to have such a good group of people. The guide was cheerful and understanding English was great. Please note that even though it is Egypt during the year-end and New Year holidays, it is quite cold in the morning and evening. Also, the boat makes an engine noise in the back, so if you are concerned, you may want to request a room in the front. It was my first time on a cruise tour, but it was very efficient, it included three meals, and I was very happy with the variety of events.

Nile river cruise
After an unexpected illness which resulted in my friend not able to continue on with our trip I was a little reluctant about doing a 4 day cruise by myself. My tour guide for the duration of the cruise, Mostafa Molattam, was very welcoming & made me feel comfortable given the circumstances. He was impressively knowledgeable & really went into detail with what we were looking at at the various temples & tombs we visited - I’ve been on a lot of tours in other countries, & though enjoyable as well, the guide really only had a general knowledge of the subjects. I will never forget this incredible tour & highly recommend Mostafa for anyone trying to sort through which Nile River cruise they want pick. Thank you!!!

We had a very enjoyable experience...
<p>We had a very enjoyable experience on the nile quest. The rooms were comfortable and had all the necessities. The tours were great and our guide Ahmed was informative, helpful and flexible, even one day there was a horse and carriage ride in which we did not want to do for personal reasons and he was more than happy to organize a tuk tuk for us instead. The tour makes it easy for you to add extra activities if you want but you were not pressured to. Most of the staff were friendly and the pool was a great way to cool off in the heat of the Egyptian sun. </p>
<p>Thinks to note: <br/>
WiFi is for an additional charge hourly basis and there were not too many food options if vegan or vegetarian like we are.</p>

This tour was truly a value and one...
<p>This tour was truly a value and one of the easiest ways to visit must-see destinations between Aswan and Luxor. We ventured on the Nile Princess, a cruise ship with the basic necessities of affordable travel. The staff were all very friendly and the food was frequently rotated but prepared well. Hany, the owner of Imperial Egypt, made the itinerary and accommodations seamless. The tours associated with the cruise were well-selected and with private guides. Overall a very good value, would recommend!</p>
