Great cruise
King Mina is a legend! Super knowledgeable about Egyptian history, and very welcoming host. The boat was very nice, cleaned daily and the food was great. Just one thing to note the tip for boat staff, guides, drivers etc isn't just a recommendation it's a set amount you pay on the first day of the cruise ($10 dollars a day). For the price we paid I believe water should be provided free of charge on the boat especially when there's not that many reliable stores on the journey.

He exceeded all my expectations.
It was an incredible experience; our guide, King Mina, told us everything and left nothing unexplained. We felt very good about the entire experience and Mina's knowledge.

Excellent tour, King Mina was the best!
King Mina was the best guide we had in all of Egypt; he was very kind and always attentive to ensure we were well and comfortable. Additionally, he knows a lot about the subject and explains it very well. I would definitely book this tour again. On the boat, I was pleasantly surprised by the service and the inhalations.

Great time
Loved this tour! The cruise boat was high quality and the staff were friendly. The tour group size was ideal at 16 and King Mina was a fantastic tour guide with a wealth of knowledge about the Egyptian monuments. 🤯 The only thing is that this tour became overwhelmingly expensive with all the added bits not included, especially to not even include drinking water in the price.

Disappointed
Great guide but the cruise was not very good. Boat not very clean, do not think you will eat well because that is not the case.
Be careful, at any moment your hot air balloon flight can be canceled the night before for the next day, which was our case.
Overall quite disappointed.
I will not return.

Magnificent experience
Our guide, King Mina, organized all the visits exceptionally well, whether it was the programming itself, the choice of the best options versus sometimes more popular ones for the tours (like a bus instead of somewhat wild and dangerous carriages), or the adherence to the schedule, which was almost precise but respected while taking into account everyone's small imperatives. He is also very knowledgeable about ancient Egyptian history, which allows him to provide excellent explanations regarding both the grand and the minor history and to answer all our quirky questions. Great experience and thanks to him

Culture from Abu simbel to luxor
We had 4 great days (3 nights on the boat) with our guid 'king mina'. He has, due to his studies great insight in the Ägypten history and can explain it in a structured, interesting and detailed way. We realy learned a lot about Ägypten history.
But Also the tour Organisation was perfectly planned and executed from Pick up to drop on your next destination.
We had a great time on the boat, with good food and service (a great team as well) as on the historical places (check the description, they were all impressive) with all the useful detailed informations.
Thanks for 4 great days.

Long Live the Reign of King Mina!!
Our 4-day Nile cruise from Aswan to Luxor was absolutely unforgettable and one of the highlights of our Egypt trip. The ship was beautiful, clean, comfortable, and the views along the Nile were breathtaking every single day. Watching the sunrise and sunset from the deck while sailing between ancient temples felt magical.
What truly made this experience exceptional was our guide, King Mina. He was beyond amazing — knowledgeable, professional, friendly, and incredibly passionate about Egypt’s history. Every temple and historical site came alive through his storytelling. He answered every question with patience and made the entire journey both educational and fun. His organization and care for the group made everything smooth and stress-free from start to finish.
The excursions to Abu Simbel, Luxor, Edfu, Kom Ombo, and all the temples were perfectly arranged, and the hot air balloon experience was unforgettable. The staff onboard were also wonderful, always welcoming us with smiles and excellent service.
If anyone is considering a Nile cruise in Egypt, I highly recommend this experience — and if you can, ask for King Mina as your guide. He truly made the trip special and memorable. 10/10 experience that we will never forget!

A Wonderful Tour with Our Guide Mina
This is a wonderful tour. We visited several temples and learned a lot about the ancient Egypt through our guide Mina. Mina is very knowledgeable and professional. He also did excellent job organizing everything. We really enjoyed this tour.
