Amazing Guide Who Made Egypt Unforgettable
We had an incredible experience with our guide in Egypt. He was extremely knowledgeable about Egyptian history and explained everything in a clear and engaging way. He was also very friendly, patient, and always made sure we were comfortable and safe throughout the trip. Thanks to him, visiting places like the pyramids and temples became even more meaningful and enjoyable. He was well organized, punctual, and happy to answer all our questions. I highly recommend him to anyone visiting Egypt — he truly made our journey unforgettable.

An amazing experience on the Nile.
We went as a family four on the cruise. The food was great, the rooms were clean and the staff was really friendly. Most of all our guide Hadi made the somewhat hectic experience of traveling through the nile a easy, informative and just plain fun. Really important when you are traveling with family. Taking the Nile cruise is a great option if you want to cruise your way through the different sites the Nile has to offer.

Excellent experience - Talaat Abdo top guide.
I recently enjoyed a fantastic 3-night, 4-day cruise on the Nile River. The entire experience was truly remarkable, earning a solid 5-star rating. The food was delicious, and the organization and transportation were top-notch. Our room was comfortable and well-appointed. A special highlight was our guide, Talat Abdo, who was incredibly knowledgeable about Egyptian history and the temples we visited. The only minor downside was that the schedule felt a bit tight for the duration, but overall, it was a fantastic and memorable experience.

The cruise crew is a 10. Very nice to everyone! Very good food, is buffet free and there are always varied options. Impeccable room with change of towels and sheets and daily cleaning, very comfortable beds. At night they usually do activities with music and dancing. Two days we got into the cruise ship's outdoor pool. Despite all this, we had bad experience with the guide we were assigned. We went to Abu Simbel and despite sharing many hours on the way bus, he never explained anything about such a relevant place. Besides, I wasn't expecting the group or worrying about us all. Anyway, a very disorganized guide. However, the cruise agency on 10, cared about us and asked us what was going on with the guide, they quickly solved the problem by changing the guide to Imperial Egypt's Mido, he was a SPECTACULAR guide, dedicated, motivated and eager to transmit his knowledge about Egypt. Definitely one of the best guides we have ever had! For the inconvenience of the first days, the agency invited us to eat at a restaurant, we are very grateful with the management they did. With the cruise you visit very interesting temples, but nevertheless the order of the itinerary is subject to change. For example, on the 3rd day we woke up very early to see the temple of Edfu and then had sailing until 15-16 to Luxor, where it was our turn that afternoon to see the temples of Karnak and luxor. However, we finally arrived at 7.30pm and had to postpone those two visits to the afternoon the following day. Finally, mention the topic of tips. On the last day a tip is expected for the whole crew, the guide told us that about $15 per person was expected, but that we could give more or less at will of each one. This was delivered inside an envelope in a reception box, so it was not uncomfortable or under pressure. You will also be expected to tip drivers who take you to temples (€1 per person). Overall very good experience and recommended.
