Great Experience
The cabin was, was better than we expected. The food was consistently very good. Staff were friendly and attentive. We found the program a good mix and well paced.
Tipping is a big deal in Egypt, it would have been helpful to know that you could tip once for all services at the end of the tour.

Incredible experience
My 9-year old child and I enjoyed a fabulous time on this Nile cruise onboard of Alhambra for 4D/3N. Thanks to the crew onboard looking after us with a great variety of buffet food, and a lovely clean cabin. The special thanks go to our private tour guide 'Aswany'. He is a very kind and probably one of the best Egyptologists. He found a great mixture of facts of history and life in Egypt today and in ancient times. He is also very experienced for logistics and makes the days exciting while comfortable - highly recommended.
Out of 5* that's a 5+.
Hopefully we are back soon to dive deeper into Egypt's rich tapestry and local friendliness. It exceeded all expectations.
A kind reminder for all tourists: While absorbing the incredible sites, please don't touch the artifacts, nor accept the temptations by local tomb guards to make special photos with flash or off limits - our future generations will appreciate your thoughtfulness.

One of our best trips ever, Egypt Unlimited Tours was the reason for it
Great trip! Mohamed from Egypt Unlimited tours helped us from the planning months ago and suggest the best according to our timing, we were received at El Cairo Airport and were not left alone until our departure.
Mohamed our guide is a great Egyptologist and went beyond to make our trip memorable,
We definitely recommend them to plan a trip to Egypt
Thanks for the great trip Mohamed and team!

Esperienza travolgente
Ahmed Eid è stata una guida straordinaria. Gentile, disponibile sopratutto grande conoscitore e amante della cultura egizia. Il suo italiano è impeccabile e ci ha letteralmente trascinati nel mistero della storia di un popolo straordinario

Nile Cruise Adventure....What to expect!!
My husband and I took this Nile cruise for 4 days & 3 nights from Awsan to Luxor.
We did not know what to expected since limited information was provided about the boat.
Most of these packages won't tell you about the boat until you booked or sometimes a few days before arrival or on the day of arrival.
For a modern high end quality boats you must go through the Boat company direct, however be aware they do not deal with cc payments.
Our boat was the "MS Triviata", a standard, not modern but clean and comfortable boat. Boat did not have entertainment, had a small pool on top deck, and limited information was provided about the next day boat activities during the day. Sometimes they would post a print out after dinner for the next day's activities. Food served in the boat catered to vegetarians as well as meat eaters. Staff on boat were polite, attentive and helpful.
Our tour company "Egypt Unlimited Tours" was good and organized. Excellent service with our pickups and drop off as they were always on time and assisted. Transportation used were always with good cars, with good AC and water was always provided.
We recommended a private tour for a better experience while sightseeing. It avoids the crowds and hassling from street venders and others.
Daily sightseeing tours were always early, so be prepare to start your day at 5am every day, which we did not expect.
It would have been nice for the tour company to have provide a written itinerary for the 4 days, of what is to be expected for each day, optional location to visit with activities and its additional cost, along with daily tentative start and end times, so that as a traveler we can prepare ahead of time.
We do however, thank our tour guide for at least letting us know at the end of the day our next day's activities and starting time, since we inquired daily.
Overall we had a good trip, and recommend a Nile cruise, just be prepare to have an open mind when booking your adventure.

Great Cruise with Wonderful Private Guide
We just completed a 4-day, 3 nights cruise in the Nile with Trip Advisor/Unlimited tours. We decided to request a private guide, which was an excellent decision. We were traveling with 2 teenagers and needed someone engaging. From the first day Mr. Sayed made efforts to undertand what we liked and adjusted the tour to our needs, making the explanations interesting and dynamic . He is clearly an experienced egyptologist who is well known by everyone in the different Temples and sites we visited. He was always protecting us and guiding us in the different sites and even in the cruise itself. His explanations were detailed and clear, but he managed to keep istalso fun and engaging. His English was also very good. We highly recommend hiring him as your tour guide!

From Philae to Abou Simbel, including Edfou & Kom Ombo by night we sailed on the beautiful Nile to Louxor, its temples and King
It was an amazing experience. The boat is really confortable, the food was excellent, the staff is perfect, the visits of Egyptian temples were extra, all of them. Even when we had to wake up really early. A special thanks to our guide Moumou who is a superb person. His knowledge is very high on all egyptian subjects, his french was very good and he was so funny, patient and organized. He is a huge part of the fantastic experience we had. A wonderfull experience.
