Room, food, service, and guide were great!
The entire experience was amazing! The employees were super nice, supportive, and with a great sense of humour. The food was delicious and the room was much better than our expectations. A special highlight for Michael Edward, our tour guide, that was amazing in so many ways. He is full of knowledge, the explanations were always very clear and with humour, but also he is very human. He supported us and the group in so many ways, making everything to give us the best experience ever. We travelled through Egypt, from Sinai to Abu Simbel, but Michael was far away the best tour guide we had.

Disappointed with the experience but perfect guide
Very disappointed with the "cruise" experience; we remained stuck for a whole day. We saw nothing of the Nile for the price, it’s quite pathetic.. we pay for a cruise and we stay in one place without moving. We only saw 3 hours of navigation to enjoy the landscapes… disappointing when you pay for a cruise!!
Also disappointed with the experience compared to other boats, better organization should be done to avoid more than 10 boats visiting the temples at the same time, it’s not pleasant to visit. The hot air balloon was also canceled even though apparently it resumed in the last few days (organizers offer it in any case)
On the other hand, nothing to say about the cleanliness and kindness of the staff (servers, kitchen staff, housekeeping staff), very beautiful room and boat always very clean.
Our guide, however, was great, Michael Edward was very attentive, gives very good explanations, and takes the time to explain well. Very smiling and of appreciable kindness!!

Fun and relax guide, boat tour was good
Upon arrival we had some issues at the airport, out guide was able to coordinate with customs and we had our luggage delivered to the boat. The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. The tours are set on certain days with the exception of the 3rd day. In our case we got late to Luxor so we had to see all the Luxor temples on our last day. We did not had paid for the temple entrances but our guide offered to pay for the entrances upon arrival which made it very convenient.

King Mina is the best English Speaking Egyptologist guide
King Mina is the best tour guide. Super knowledgeable and friendly. He made lots of arrangements special for my mom and sister who were having trouble walking and for my Dad who has a bad heart to help keep him cool and in the shade. He made the trip so much better. We were unable to go on the hot air balloon ride due to bad weather, but the ship staff was very nice. The beds on the cruise were super hard and uncomfortable.

An incredible experience
Great experience to have at least once in your life. Simple and fast communication, we had a great guide, King Mina, who gave very good advice and explained things very well. The program is intense but the landscapes are clearly worth it. We learn a lot every day. The staff on board is lovely, the food is very good. I recommend this experience to you 100%

We had such a wonderful...
We had such a wonderful experience with King Mina as our guide during our Nile Cruise! He was incredibly kind, friendly, and helpful throughout the entire trip. He made sure we were comfortable and always went out of his way to assist us whenever we needed anything.
What impressed us the most was his excellent knowledge of Egyptian history. He explained everything so clearly and brought the ancient sites and stories to life in a really interesting and engaging way.
King Mina is not only very knowledgeable but also genuinely caring and pleasant to be around. He made our trip even more memorable, and we truly appreciated all his help and kindness. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a knowledgeable and friendly guide for your Nile Cruise! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
