Completely recommend!
Book your nile cruise with Egypt Unlimited Tours - everything about this trip blew our minds. Definitely spend the little bit extra on a private tour, Mustafa was our guide and he was so excellent and knowledgeable. The popular places like Valley of the Kings, Karnak Temple and Luxor was amazing, but it was the smaller sites like Philae Temple where we didn't know what to expect that were our favourites. The schedule was packed, but we did everything including the optional extras which were so special and even got some relaxing time on the ship to rest.
We were on board the Nile Paradise, which was a fantastic cruise ship where the staff were so friendly and helpful; our room was so lovely with a little balcony, and the sundeck with pool was much appreciated on the hot afternoons.
The cruise ship food was the best I've ever had on a cruise ship or at an all inclusive.

Trip of a lifetime!
I highly recommend this tour. Everything was planned exceptionally well. We had private tours all the way, including all trips. Our tour guide was fantastic, Sayed was a part of our holiday! He was experienced, knew all the way round everything, including queues! He was extremely knowledgeable and entertaining. He also filled our free time with excellent experiences including city tours, hot air balloons and boat tours to new areas. We never had to worry about anything and was a trip of a lifetime!

The best guide to your Aswan-Luxor cruise.
Mo (Muhammad) is an excellent guide who with great knowledge and enthusiasm inspired us for 5 days (we had an extra day in Luxor) about the old - and new - Egypt.
He always gave different options for the visits and then we could choose.
Mo also speaks excellent English.

Amazing Egyptian tour for family spring break
We did the 7 day/ 6 night tour that started in Cairo with the tour of the pyramids and Egyptian museum on day two, then flew down to Aswan for the 4 day/ 3 night Aswan to Luxor Nile cruise, before returning to Cairo and home. We were a family of 4 with 13 and 11 year old kids. The overall tour was exceptional and far exceeded our expectations. All of the travel, transport, transfers and itinerary was taken care of. Our tour guides offered optional activities to our tour, such as the tour of Abu Simbel or the Nubian village, so even while the itinerary was generally taken care of, we still had options to customize it to our interests or desires. Our private tour guides organized by Unlimited were amazing! Radwa in Cairo and Mohamed on the Nile cruise we’re both extremely friendly, knowledgeable and passionate about their profession. I could not give a higher recommendation for these two, they were amazing. Only improvement would have been the super early wake up call to fly down to Aswan, but that is really nitpicking an otherwise exceptional tour. I would highly recommend the Unlimited tour company for anyone wishing to go to Egypt. With a lack of companies out there wishing to work with families with kids, Unlimited took great care of us, and gave us a once in a lifetime experience.

Amazing Trip of a Lifetime
This was an amazing experience. The richness of the history, the beauty of the country, the Nile and the people made this so pleasant. We had an amazing tour guide, Sayed Taie from Luxor with Unlimited Tours who was incredibly knowledgeable about all of the temples and landmarks in Aswan and Luxor. In addition to having deep knowledge Sayed was so warm, personable and FUN!! He took great care of us and made the trip even more special.

Egypt in 3 nights/4 days!
While seeing Egypt would take a lifetime (or more), this trip was an unbelievably fun and educational introduction. I traveled with two friends of 50 years and we had a blast! Our guide, Ahmed, picked us up at our Aswan hotel at 8am on the first day and was our private guide for the entire trip. He was fantastic! I know some about Egyptian history but every day I learned a lot. Besides being knowledgeable about the history of Egypt, he did everything in his power to ease our way. He constantly checked with us about our needs and preferences and thought in advance what would make the trip easier for us. The drivers were always pleasant and prompt. Driving in Egypt is a challenge but we arrived safely to each destination! The cruise itself may be the best value I’ve ever encountered. The food was good, the cabins comfortable and the staff were very friendly and accommodating. After the cruise landed in Luxor, check-out was 8am (when Ahmed took us to the Valley of the Kings and the Temple of Hatshepsut) but our flight didn’t leave until after 9pm. The ship allowed us to store out luggage and hang out all afternoon in the lounge and sundeck. This was a great, great trip! Bring a lot of tip money since there are so many people helping you out but, still, best deal on the planet for experiences that have been on my buckets list for a long, long time!

Good cruise and wonderful experience
Expérience unique. Le bateau n'était pas aussi extraordinaire que sur les photos mais les lits sont très confortables et la nourriture très bonne. Notre guide Ragab est formidable. Il a pris soin de moi et dema fille et à tout fait pour nous faire plaisir . Toujours gentil, très efficace, cultivé et avec une bonne élocution. L'excursion à Abou Simbel a été extraordinaire malgré un départ à 4h30 du matin et 7 heures de route aller retour. Un très beau voyage. Merci Ragab !!

Best Tour Guide! Diaa!
Just finished a 3-night cruise from Aswan to Luxor and Diaa was our tour guide. He provided the BEST experience and helped us create many amazing memories! Diaa is everything you want in a guide - professional, knowledgeable, organized, great communicator, and amazing service! I especially appreciated the way he communicated every step of the journey so we could be prepared and the way he delivered information about all the historical sites in an interesting storytelling manner. We learned so much and had so much fun! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Nile cruise
Karnak, Luxor, Erfu and Kom Ombo temples all expertly discussed by Adham. Early am carriage to Erfu was fun. If you are up for it an early hot air balloon ride over Valley of Kings/Hathsheput temple is an outstanding early morning experience. Ask guides about it.
Cruise ship was adequate, meal hours crowded, long lines , food cold sometimes. Credit card reader was unreliable, so bring cash in case. One highlight was our ship hitting another during rush to next stop. Exchanges in Arabic between crews was quite animated!
Sites and excursions far outweighed drawbacks of ship.

Top Marks!
The ship itself was great fun, beautifully appointed and manned by an excellent crew who were friendly and helpful. The food desrves a mention too. It was uniformly excellent.
The highlights were, of course, the magnificent temples and tombs along the way, brought to life by our wonderful guide, Naggar. His knowlege and enthusiasm proved invaluable in what could have been an overwhelming and bewildering experience. There really is far too much to take in at each site but Naggar has a terrific talent for highlighting the key features to look for and also bringing to life the extraordinary characters from ancient Egyptian history. Always available should you need him but never intrusive, Naggar proved the ideal guide. We recommend his services unreservedly.
Please update your information about the ship, Ramadi 1. It has been recently refurbished to a very high standard and deserves to be shown off!
