Outstanding experience - We had a tour started by early morning balloon and afterwards a tour of vositing different places including valley of the kings, hatshepsyt, karnak temple. The places were amazing but what made it really special was a lot of very useful information from our tour guide Eyman. He was amazing by providing to the point information to give us a very good understanding of the historical background about the places we visited. Eyman, the tour guide, and his colleague, Rami, the driver, were really supportive, really precise on timing to make our experience a great experience. Very highly recommended.

Best guide in Egyp: Ashraf, from Luxor. - I did the cruise on Nilo river and we stopped in Phila, Abdu Simbel, Edfu, Valey of the kings, Hatshupsut, Karnak and Luxor temple. Ashraf was the guide of the last four places and was the best guide in the hole trip, way ahead of the others. Deep knowledge of the places, perfect English, didn’t rush anything and was friendly as well. Finally, he managed to delivery us safe and sound in the hotel after a perfect day. I could not and the trip in a better way, wanted to stay more in Luxor just to go in other places with this guide.

Great experience overall - I was a bit wary to go on a cruise boat (not my usual style of travelling) but it really is the best option to do this route while visiting all there there is to see for this amount of time. Because there were rooms available they upgraded me for free and overall I always felt everything was designed to please us and makes us happy as possible. The food was excellent and varied, the staff was always very nice, the room and the the all boat (MS Nile III) was great, clean and well looked after. I was always closely accompanied over Whatsapp by Demiana from Nice Tours. My tour didn't include the hot air balloon option but on the last minute I changed my mind and she quickly found a way to slide me in and make the all thing happen. We had several guides along the several temples we stopped by, all good, but I would stand out Ahmed Yossry with whom I spent the most time in Luxor, His english is great, as is his knowledge and concern for our well being and overall experience. With all that, I would recommend this trip to anyone!

Great trip - We took the boat from Aswan to Luxor and stopped in several places. Our guide Khaled Fouad showed us around at the temples. Great tour and food on the boat is good. Only thing we did not like is the fact that our boat was delayed so in the end we only sailed for 1 day to all destinations. The first 2 days we were stucked in Aswan which we already seen on our own.

Nice on the Nile - We were on one of Iberotel’s largest cruise ships. It was amazingly clean and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The Buffet style meals were excellent! Many site seeing trips were made when the ship would stop at different places. The guides were fun and helpful. However, on shore many poor children will surround you and insist that you buy souvenirs or give them a donation for food to eat. We bought candy to give to the kids and about started a riot. Otherwise, the cruise was enjoyed by all of the seven in our party.
