Explore the ancient culture of Luxor and Aswan and the beauty of the River Nile.The Nile was the lifeline of ancient Egyptian civilization and today the banks of the river are dotted with ancient tombs and temples. Lying 420 miles south of Cairo, Luxor is the most dramatic historical site in Egypt - and is often referred to as the world’s greatest open air museum. Luxor is the modern day name for Thebes, the ancient capital city of the New Kingdom Pharaohs. Today, Luxor is home to more than half of Egyptian antiquities and is a must-see destination for any visitor to Egypt. Aswan is the “Jewel of the Nile”. Pink and grey granite thrusts upward through the Nubian sandstone, forming mountains, cliffs and jagged outcrops. The Nile runs clear and cold here, and endless waves of golden sand swirl against its banks.

I got George as my guide while I took a cruise from Luxor to Aswan. I was really lucky to have him because he was great and enthusiastic the entire trip. Our group was small and we had time to get to know each other. Overall amazing experience I’d recommend.

Ahmed Sliem our guide made this 1st class trip personalized , highly informative and amusing on the boat and sights seeing as well as making suggestions without pressure for add ins. He saw to every detail and anticipated all our needs. Changes and suggested add ons were proposed and incorporated smoothly.. We came to learn about Egypt’s past and leave having learned and experienced the new Egypt as well on the Princess Farida. After 29 years together my husband and I considered this trip at the top of our list. You will learn, ear very well, feel supported and received attentive care.

This experience was absolutely beyond our expectations. Our guide, Mo, took care of us from start to finish, from ensuring we had enough water to even making a special stop to get us some medicine. Everywhere we went we were made to feel like VIPs! Mo was incredibly knowledgeable and made sure we were allotted plenty of time at each location. Communication was fantastic, the private transportation was always in clean, air conditioned, newer vehicles with friendly and safe drivers. This was more than I could have ever asked for!

Our trip to Egypt was truly unforgettable, and a big part of that was thanks to our amazing guide, Mo. From the moment we arrived, everything was perfectly arranged, the agency put us on a beautiful boat with excellent service, and we were treated with so much care and attention throughout the trip. Mo was absolutely fantastic, knowledgeable, friendly, and fun to be around. He didn’t just show us the sights, he made us feel like we were exploring Egypt with a friend. From the big highlights to the small details, Mo made everything easier, more meaningful, and more enjoyable. If you are visiting Egypt, we cannot recommend him enough!

Fantastic trip! We have discovered so many great places thanks to Walid our private guide! Everything was perfect, from the communication with Mahmoud to the cruise and the visits. Walid was excellent in the explanations he provided us and in the organisation of all the excursions! It has been a great trip! Thank you, we really enjoyed it and highly recommend it!

Our 5 night Nile River cruise was amazing. Not only the sights - which was expectedly awesome and overwhelming - but the travel agency did a great job of taking care of us. Everything from hotel pick up, plane ride to Luxor and back from Aswan, and of course, our tour guide Mahmoud was spotless. Would definitely recommend!

I'm not the kind of person who bothers to write reviews—but this is an exception. Our Nile cruise was a last-minute decision. After some browsing online, I contacted several agencies—including Luxor and Aswan Travel. Mr. Naser Mahmoud replied quickly and answered all my questions clearly—pricing, cabin class, itinerary—and made thoughtful suggestions based on my preferences. Honestly, I must have been a headache to deal with: I asked a million questions, changed my mind constantly, couldn’t make a decision, and contacted a few agencies at the same time. One agency couldn’t even tell me the name of the exact ship I’d be on! Land tours just sounded too exhausting. In the end, we made our decision the day before our flight—based on Mr. Naser's suggestion. He handled everything, despite it being so last-minute. We got a mid-level cabin on a higher deck, and he provided the exact name of the boat in advance. When we traveled from Soma Bay to Luxor, our InDrive appointment got completely messed up—wrong driver, an hour late, no English spoken, and we had no idea where we were going. We were flying down the desert highway at 180 km/h, and honestly, I was pretty nervous. I messaged Mr. Naser—it was early in the morning, but he got back to me right away. He helped sort everything out, including our request to make a quick stop at Dendera Temple on the way. When we finally arrived, he met us in person at the cruise port. All his “revenge” on the chaos was delivered with the precision of a millisecond-German stare (lol). He personally escorted us to the boat and took care of the check-in while we relaxed with welcome drinks. Imagine the relief after such a wild morning! And the guide he arranged for us—Mr. Ahmed Helmy Ali—was an absolute wonder. I’ve never seen anyone so passionate. His love for ancient Egyptian civilization was truly inspiring. Those five days felt like a journey back in time—it was magical. Everything came vividly and beautifully alive through his storytelling. My husband and I are both deeply interested in ancient Egypt and hieroglyphs. Mr. Ahmed joked that by the end of the trip, we’d be writing poetry in hieroglyphs. Sadly, we couldn’t—but we did learn so many characters. It truly felt like a crash course in Egyptian history. Later, when we visited the Cairo Museum, we realized just how much we’d absorbed. We weren’t clueless anymore—we recognized the gods, understood their stories, and appreciated everything so much more. Many thanks to Mr. Naser and Mr. Ahmed. You both made our Nile cruise absolutely magical. This Egypt trip was the best trip of my life. We learned so much and met such wonderful people. We’ll be back!

We had an amazingly smooth and wonderful experience from the word go. I got reference from friends and contacted Mahmoud, I compared with other tour operators too, but ended up selecting Luxor and Aswan, we booked a suite on Stienberger Minerva. Mahmoud met us at the airport, we had a very comfortable 8 seater to ourselves for the tours . The cruise in itself was very good, you enjoy the refreshing Nile breeze during sailing, all tourist spots are duly covered with adequate time, food on most occasions was very good, excellent housekeeping. The swimming pool can best be called a kids wading pool, but that’s with all cruise boats. There’s no gym. There’s no entertainment, what they call so is a scam. And then the guide Ahmed - so knowledgeable, very well educated in Egyptian history, reads hieroglyphics, patiently articulates, he is the one who made the trip with its full while. Can’t praise him enough

The trip was very pleasantly organized. We had a remarkable time during our vacation in Egypt thanks to our guide Mr. Ashraf. His knowledge, professionalism and detailed explanations helped us learn a lot about the Ancient Egyptian history and culture. Thank you Mr Ashraf for showing us all these fascinating historical sites along the River Nile and Abu Simbel.

This tour company is extremely responsive. We booked a cruise about 10 months ago and every time I had a question I would email them and Hany replied within minutes no matter the day or time. I was hesitant originally because of the things I was hearing about the Middle East. Egypt is completely safe. My husband and I went and did not feel nervous, not even once. The hotel in Cairo was Steinberg El Tahir.. The hotel is excellent and the breakfast is wonderful. We receive door-to-door service with our private guide did not have to worry about anything. They took care of everything. I was especially impressed with the guide that followed us through the entire river cruise, Ahmed Sliem. I’d never have been with a guide so caring and so willing to help in every way possible . He was at our disposal 24 seven. We did not worry about anything. He took care of everything before we even asked. My husband had issues with walking and he was there helping him all the way through. I have never seen anything like this man. The best tour guide Ever!! I highly recommend this travel agency and I would highly recommend when you make a reservation to make sure to ask for Ahmed Sleim. You will be highly pleased. In our time in Cairo our tour guide was Amani. She was fabulous too do not hesitate to make your reservations with this tour company. You will not be disappointed.
