Nile cruise from Aswan to Luxor and all ancient Egyptian temples
Our guide Mohamed was excellent. We throughly enjoyed the ancient Egyptian history, which he is very well versed in and has a passion for. Mohamed had a good command of the English language and his explanations of the events of the Nubian people through their temples and was very easy to understand. Mohamed also went the extra mile to help us with other personal things during our tours. He took good care of us during our stay in Aswan and Luxor.

Aswan to Luxor - 5 Stars
I can not describe the beauty, wonder, history of our experience in Egypt via a review but can only add that that knowledge, friendliness and attention to detail provided by Ahmed Salameh elevated my family trip beyond words. Ahmed was knowledgeable, resourceful, and paid attention to every detail. He was with us from Aswan to Luxor at every amazing stop with information and a fresh perspective. When we go back Ahmed will definitely be part of our trip. Thank you so much Ahmed for making this epic trip more than we expected.

Excellent Cruise and Guide!
We had an absolutely wonderful trip! All the arrangements were well made and all our requests were accommodated without hesitation. We recieved truly personal service and it was a worry free experience from beginning to end!
Special shout out to our guide Mr. Mohammed, who went above the beyond for us. We had someone in our group who injured their ankle and he helped us greatly support her and ensure she could also enjoy all the activities.
This is my second nile cruise and I can safely say this is a great deal!!

Trip of a lifetime in comfortable and convenient transport, with all the essential sites on the list
Thank you Ahmad for being a terrific tour guide!
This really is the way to see Egypt. Yes there were a few (optional) early mornings for Luxor balloons and Abu Simbel. But at the end of the day you are in Egypt to see the wonders of the world - so get out of bed!
Do everything on offer. You can haggle a bit for the price on balloons and Abu Simbel, so do! But the plethora of breathtaking temples, the scope of the history, the green banks of the Nile drifting by, drinks on the deck. This is like no other trip. Egypt is a country of unrivalled beauty and antiquity - and this is the only way to see it.
Be aware that WiFi on the boat is very expensive, and drinks aren’t cheap either. Also there was great food and great vegan options for myself for all of the days bar the last one - I think the boat was getting low in supplies, and so the couple of last meals were a bit disappointing.
I will also say that being part of a tour group made us a bit rushed for time. I have a unique interest in Ancient Egypt, having studied it for my masters, so I am perhaps more thrilled and engaged than the regular punter. However, going to Luxor Temple, apparently the biggest open air religious compound in the world, and having only one hour - it just simply was not enough time. We were with other couples with young kids who probably wanted to get back to the boat quicker than me…but I just wanted more time at each site!
Also there are some fun facts tour guides could stand to include - for example the last ever inscription made in hieroglyphs is on Philae temple, but nobody pointed it out! Would have given me a thrill. Also, pay extra to go to the tomb of Ramesses V and VI in the valley of the kings - you will not regret it for a moment.
Thank you again Salama our terrific tour guide. I will return to Egypt again, and frankly I can’t wait! Don’t hesitate to book,

Cruising the Nile, Living a Dream
We booked with the private tour option and the boat, our guide Naggar Boghdadhy, the sights and people were simply amazing. The cruise and tour include all the places you need to see (Fellucca boat sailing, Philae, Karnak, Valley of Kings, etc), plus offers options such as Sound and Light shows, a hot air balloon over the Valley of the Kings and a day trip to Abu Simbel that made this a true trip of a lifetime. This cruise is a MUST for anyone coming to Egypt!!! Book the best cruise you can afford (all very reasonable prices) as our boat was definitely nicer than the budget options that shared ports of call. Food onboard was really good, service was five-star all the way, and everything was convenient and well organized. As a global traveler, this trip is highly recommended!

Once in a lifetime journey down the Nile
Egypt Unlimited provided and fantastic way to see Ancient and Modern Egypt cruising up the Nile with door to door service. Mohamed led this journey down the Nile for us and made us feel at home while also teaching us so much about antiquity with his vast breadth of knowledge and warm, fun nature! Would definitely recommend him for everyone coming to Egypt.

4 day cruise between Aswan & Luxor
The best way to visit the temples between Aswan and Luxor. Mohamed Ahmed passionately tells a fascinating story about Egyptian history. Despite the heat he took the necessary break in the shade with a delicious ice cream:-)
