Nile Cruise with "Egypt Best Day Tours"
This tour is a good way to see several Egyptian highlights in a short amount of time. Our Egyptologist was Ahmed Mido who is a very nice man and knowledgeable about the history of the various sites and decoding hieroglyphics. I think you'll enjoy this tour IF you're clear on what to expect. Firstly, the boat shown in the photos for this listing are misleading. You'll need to upgrade to a "luxury tour" for that type of boat. Our boat was the far more modest, Jaz Crown Jubilee. Additionally, you need to read the itinerary very closely - Abu Simbel ($165), Hot Air Balloon ($99) and Nubian Village ($49) are all additional charges which will need to be paid in cash. You're also responsible for your own entrance into all sites which typically runs $10-15 each. Also, tipping is very different in Egyptian culture. Pretty much each person who you interact with will expect a tip so come prepared with LOTS of small bills. I will say that "Egypt Best Day Tours" was very easy to communicate with via WhatsApp and they checked in nearly every day to ensure everything was going well with us. Egypt is an amazing pace to visit. I hope you enjoy!

Relax and let Egypt BestTours take care of everything!
We are so glad web booked our dream trip to Egypt with Egypt Best Tours! Very impressed, from the beginning, with our travel consultant Hazem , who was knowledgeable, professional, and patient with all my questions. he explained everything in detail and provided all needed information so we would know what to expect.
We really lucked out with amazing tour guides! Our first of two guides was Hussein, who was so wise, friendly and fun! We learned so much and really enjoyed spending time with him for our Cairo/Giza sightseeing. Restaurant choices were great, too… we are still dreaming about the amazing food! Our second guide once we got to Aswan to begin our Nile Cruise at movenpick Nile Cruise portion of the trip was Ahmed , and we really enjoyed our time with him as well! He was attentive and kind, making sure to check on us after one person in our group was temporarily ill. We were impressed with both guides’ abilities to juggle multiple people’s needs and keeping us all on schedule so we could be sure to spend quality time in each scheduled location. And their enthusiasm and knowledge of Egyptian history really shined through; they obviously love their job!
Highly recommend requesting these guides if possible and highly recommend using Egypt Best Tours when traveling to Egypt. We were able to just relax and enjoy ourselves bc they took care of everything!

The best trip I have ever taken
5 out of 5 stars for sure!!!! This was the best trip I have ever been on. Every part of the trip was amazing. Everyone was extremely helpful. We went on a a cruise and there are many cruise ships we saw and they booked us with the best cruise lines and every thing we wanted to do they were able to accommodate. They went above and beyond. I have used many travel companies in the past, none of them compare to how we were treated here. From the min I book with them they made me feel comfortable and I felt that every step of the way was special and they went out of their way to make me feel that way. Ballon rides, cruise, camel rides, every guide we had was professional and knowledgeable and made every temple and site come to life for us. I have already recommended to friends at home and plan on coming back next year with more of my family. Use this company 100%. I promise you won’t be disappointed. EGYPT BEST TOURS is the BEST.

Aswan and Luxor Cruise 2022
Ahmed was our guide and took care of our entire itinerary. He went above and beyond my expectations. Everything of interest to me in southern Egypt was covered attentively by him. The Cruise and Ahmed's tour was professional and well organized. Highly recommend it.

De perfecte Nijlcruise en Cairo Experience
Wat een geweldige ervaring hadden we met de beste reizen van Egypte en onze gidsen Hossam en John.
De reisroute paste perfect bij onze behoeften, met 1 nacht in Aswan, 3 nachten op de Nijlcruise, 1 nacht in Luxor en vervolgens de laatste nacht in Caïro
Onze gidsen Hossam en John zijn zeer professionele, uiterst goed geïnformeerde Egyptologen, die ons tijdens de hele ervaring met zorg en een echt persoonlijk tintje hebben begeleid. ze brachten de geschiedenis op een zinvolle en plezierige manier tot leven. onze chauffeurs waren allemaal professiinals echt veilig en hun voertuigen waren allemaal huidige model minibusjes met airconditioning.
We hadden hoge verwachtingen van deze zeer speciale reis en ze werden overtroffen onder andere we bezochten de piramides van gizeh, de tempel van philae, abu Simble, karnak, de tempel van luxor, de vallei der koningen, het egyptische museum, de licht- en geluidshow van de piramides
Als u denkt aan een Nijlcruise of een bezoek aan Luxir of Caïro, is dit team fantastisch en zal het leveren wat u wilt. we hebben pas een paar weken voor onze reis contact opgenomen en ze hebben alle binnenlandse vluchten, hotels, cruises, gidsen en tickets in 3 e-mails opgelost.
Aan het stuurteam en aan John en Hossam; bedankt voor het maken van onze reis een herinnering om te koesteren.
Oh en het ontbijt Falafels waren perfect?
