Great Sailing experience

Amazing trip. We had great time sailing and the service provided by cruise was great. We had our tour guide as Mr Tallat who made our trip great by explaining in his own unique way the history of great Egyptians temples. Mr Tallat is amazing and humorous as guide. I truly recommend this cruise.

Amazing - Tata Guide was the Best!

The Cruise is perfect. You don't need yo pay much to have a great times!! You can come alone, with family, friends as entertainment is guaranteed. Food is included and it has many options! Transfer to the temples is also included! The only thing to improve on the cruise is the Wifi. With regards to our Guide Tata (Talaat), he was extra kind and explained a lot about the history inside and outside the temples. This trip is highly recommended!!

Amazing experience, great cruise and awesome tour guides

The experience was amazing. Very organized hotel pickup and smooth check-in. Our cruise ship was Kleos and it was really nice. It was clean, facilities like pool and sun deck were awesome, the staff members were incredibly friendly, the room was spacious and clean. The view from the room balcony was better than I excepted. The guides and drivers were always punctual. We learned a lot from all the tours organized. Special thanks to the Egyptologist Abanoub who was super knowledgeable, kind and patient. I could not have learned more from his tours all over Luxor. As a history fan, I am grateful to have visited Luxor with such a passionate guide. The checkout process was also organized. I totally recommend this tour. You get to see and do so many things in a very comfortable way.

Excellent professional handling of the entire tour

The feel of the sail on cruise was breathtaking. Takes an experience to another level. The plan was coordinated well between tour-operators and the cruise team. Despite a few personal choices not being fulfilled, it's all worth it. Sailing on Nile is a repeatable experience. We had contacted Mr. Mohamed from Go Tours Egypt directly and he ensured all aspects of the tours are managed well. Mr. Mohamed is a man of few words, keeps his words and knows how to deal with good customers. He is immensely experienced and a very well standing professional. He kept in touch and kept bettering experience, fixing niggles, if at all. Worth going to for customers who are seeking good experience for the money that a good experience deserves.
