Problems with scheduling. - You cannot just pick a day to start your cruise. Because of the way Viator sells these cruises we are missing a day and night. The cruise runs only Saturday till Wednesday. We asked for Sunday because the visitor site lets you choose and does not let you know this. The people that run this cruise are trying their best to make this right, but it is not their fault and they should not be expected to fix it.

Great trip, great tour guide - On our Nile cruise we met our guide Karam. He has a very broad knowledge and can convey the content very well. He speaks very good German and knows answers to all questions. Every visit to the temples was an exciting experience. Fun and wit were not neglected. Even after the excursions he was always there for the group and open to all questions. Thanks to the great crew on the clean ship and Karam's presence, this trip will remain unforgettable. Thanks to Karam

Great experience - Great time and good attention for what you expect and your rythm, the schedule is done to optimize this short cruise and visit main interest of this part of egypt, you can ad or avoid some attraction but all you will see will stay in your mind for ever. Love egypt with dr Moe is organizing all very well, instead sometimes some way could make a doubt.... don’t worry the result is all good. Hassan was my guide, many talk and easy time with him, very important for me his known about his land history is so interesting than you get the impression to hear an old Egyptian 😉🤙. Was great to do this trip with him and wish all your team a better year for business tourism. Boat was confortable as well and food was lovely🙏

Top notch tour guide! - A small group that I was in was extremely fortunate to have Mohamed as our tour guide for the five day cruise on the Nile. Every day was planned and executed in a stress free, relaxed manner. The temples we saw were amazing with Mohamed instructing us on the history of each room and ceremony rituals observed. Highly informative and exciting to hear! Mohamed's knowledge, enthusiasm and ability to know exactly what we wanted to see and hear about was priceless. Best tour I have been on in my life!

I LIKe EGYPT TOURS - First of all we would like to thank Dr. Mohamed and the team of I LIKE EGYPT TOURS for a wonderful 4 night Nile cruise from Luxor to Aswan recently. Everything was well organised from hotel pick up, scheduling of visits to the various sites and drop off at airport... A special thanks to Dr. Mohamed our Tour Guide, who willingly shared his extensive knowledge of Egyptian history and culture with us. The cruise was very enjoyable. Staff were pleasant, with good service. The restaurant had a wide selection of food to choose from. Would be happy to book with I LIKE EGYPT TOURS again. Highly recommend I LIKE EGYPT TOURS. and don't forget to ask about Dr. Mohamed.

Nile Cruise - On balance I would recommend Dr Mo for a Nile Cruise. We went from Luxor to Aswan. Everything we had been expecting happened. We did have some communication issues about what was included and what was not. For example, we were told that entry tickets to the Valley of the Kings etc. were included whereas tombs were included once we had purchased an entry ticket. This is clearly a case of too many cooks spoiling the broth as we were dealing with our UK travel agency as well as Dr Mo and a few things got lost in translation (literally). That said entry to most things was fairly cheap. The balloon ride and Abu Simbel were spectacular but we were not told about 4 am starts for both. With the benefit of hindsight, I would recommend starting the cruise in Aswan and going all the way to Cairo (which we wanted to see) and cutting out an internal flight but we also wanted a week of sun in Sharm El Sheikh and that would have required more than 14 days. Other comments are more observations on the way things work or do not work in Egypt rather than Dr Mo specifically. The pick up at Luxor Airport was a fiasco with a driver not speaking English, clearly not having a clue where he was going and using Google Maps on my phone for assistance. That said most other people on the cruise went straight to a hotel on the first night not to the boat as we did (communication again). Things in Egypt happen when they happen – not so much manana as manana manana manana. Don’t expect European efficiency. For the Brits – be aware that in our experience this is the first country we have visited where the main second language is not English as it should be. Spanish and Italian are far more prevalent. Everyone everywhere has a sales pitch and there is no avoiding hawkers and street sellers offering you a “good, special price”. Finally – how many Egyptians does it take to change a light bulb? Multiple individuals are involved in every trip and tipping is endemic. As far as getting rid of pestilential nuisances is concerned, I would recommend learning some Frech phrases as that seems to fox them for a while.

Run away as fast as can - If you book a cruise with Dr Mo be sure to be dissed last minute. They got in touch with me over whatsapp last minute to tell me that the cruise price is hiked by 250$ per person. That is 1000$ for our whole group. They cancelled our viatot trip because we refused to pay extra. I’m attaching screenshots for reference. What they mention in the itinerary is not included, everything comes at an extra price. And be aware they always do this last minute, to scare you and push you to pay more. Run away from Dr Mo, they are the biggest fraudsters.
