Truly amazing Nile Cruise! - We had a great time on the nile cruise. The organisation and the communication with the travel agency were very easy. You will have the opportunity to book some trips on top. We can strongly recommend the tour to Abu Simbel and Karnak which were both impressive! If you are German speaking ask for Mohammed as tour guide. He was the best guide we had during our whole trip to Egypt.
Overall the nile cruise was a lifetime experience. We will never forget it.

Amazing experience - The boat was amazing, clean, full equipated, lunchs included, the staff was very helpful and communication was so easy and fast.
All the visists we did were as per description. The guide came to the boat to pick us up, the guides we had knew a lot about history, and explained in an easy way, so we could understand everything.
I believe the most important is that everything happened as it has advertised. The only bad luck we had was a lot of wind so no balloons took off.... but we received the money back and that was informed as soon as they knew.
Overall was a very memorable experience for me and my partner.
Thank you for this experience

Tremendous time with guide Mohamed Albasha from Aswan to Louxor during the cruise. - This was an amazing experience. The guide, Mohamed Albasha, is extremely kind and very clear when giving explanations. Moreover, his transparency, advices and jokes are one of a kind.
The cruise is nice and full of life.
I had a tremendous time here and wish the same to all people doing the same trip.
