Excellent trip and guide

Had a lovely trip. Our guide, Khaled Elsaady, made a great program for us and was always ready with explanations and answers everywhere we went. It was our first time in Luxor and Aswan and thanks to Khaled it will not be the last.

Nice cruise

The boat is very comfortable, plus we were upgraded. Our guide gave us a lot of explanations about the different temples. Everybody's in the care. On the other hand: tips for the crew are not included in the cruise price as well as drinks during meals.

Simply amazing.

Everything was fantastic! The boat was clean and comfortable, staterooms were larger than expected (smaller than a regular hotel but larger than most cruises I'm familiar with). The top deck was amazing- lots of comfortable chairs to lounge in and watch the Nile drift by. The food itself was good, nothing extreme but a lot of variety and served buffet style so you could always find something to enjoy. But the service was phenomenal. The head server remembered our names and greeted us every day with a huge smile (Thanks Mahmoud!!) And the bartender (Ahmed) made a fantastic lemon mojito. Just as a heads up, drinks (including water and tea) are not included in the fare, although a large bottle of water is about a dollar fifty, with a dual coffee service being a lot 3. Also of note, at check out a tip is expected for 5-10 dollars per guest per day. Finally, the excursions / tours; a clean and comfortable van was provided at each location, excepting a horse and buggy ride at edfu, and the temple at kom ombu where the boat literally docked at the entrance. Outings started very early, as there was a lot to do and, being October, temperatures were fairly high. Some of the tours were a bit rushed, due to the amount to be scene and the boat's sailing schedule, but I never left a place feeling like I missed out on anything. The tour guides all seemed great, but ours was definitely the best. Michael Samy is exceptionally knowledgeable, with a great sense of humor, passion for the subject and very polished hospitality skills. We had a free morning and last minute decided to take a felucca ride around Aswan. We let Mike know and 30 minutes later his friend sails up to take us around Elephantine island. He handled questions on the tours very well, and would spend sailing time on the weather deck with us chatting about Egypt, modern and ancient. He has also helped us arrange for our plans in Giza after the cruise is over. This cruise was the highlight of my stay in Egypt and I highly highly recommend this cruise to everyone.

Excellent private tour guide

The guided tours were amazing. Our guide Mina was extremely professional, so well informed, comedic and knowledgeable. His presence with us during the tours was invaluable.
