  Wonderful Nile Cruise Experience on MS Monaco We had an amazing experience on the MS Monaco Nile cruise. Everything was very well organized from the beginning to the end of the trip. The ship has a beautiful and comfortable interior — clean cabins, cozy common areas, and a very pleasant atmosphere on board. The food was excellent, with a wide variety of fresh and delicious dishes at every meal. The organization of the excursions was excellent. All visits were well planned, punctual, and smooth, which allowed us to enjoy the temples and historical sites without stress. Special thanks to our guide Khaled, who was professional, knowledgeable, and very friendly. His explanations were clear, interesting, and full of fascinating historical details. He made ancient Egyptian history come alive and was always attentive to the group. The service on board was outstanding. The staff were polite, helpful, and always smiling, making the whole journey comfortable and relaxing. Cruising on the Nile was truly unforgettable — beautiful views, peaceful atmosphere, and perfect balance between sightseeing and relaxation. We highly recommend the MS Monaco Nile cruise to anyone looking for comfort, great food, excellent service, and perfectly organized excursions.

• A perfect way to explore Egypt and the Nile

  Our experience with Mr. Khaled was truly exceptional from start to finish. As a guide with a PhD in Egyptology, he combines deep academic knowledge with practical experience, making every site we visited come alive with fascinating historical context and stories. He is extremely well organized, professional, and clearly passionate about sharing his expertise. Even though this was not our first time in Egypt, we learned an incredible amount of new and interesting information at each location. Mr. Khaled has a remarkable ability to point out details that most visitors would easily miss and to explain them in an engaging and understandable way. His guidance added a whole new dimension to places we thought we already knew well. He was also very considerate and attentive to our needs throughout the trip. After the tour he kindly gave us a ride back to our hotel, which was greatly appreciated and showed his genuine care for his guests. Thanks to his planning, we were able to visit a large number of sites without ever feeling rushed or overwhelmed. The Nile cruise on the “Moon River” was another highlight of the journey. The boat was comfortable, clean, and well maintained, with private bathrooms and showers in each cabin. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the overall atmosphere was very relaxing. The food on board was delicious, with a wide variety of options. As vegetarians, we were especially pleased to find plenty of tasty and well-prepared dishes that suited our diet. Overall, this tour exceeded our expectations in every way. For anyone looking to explore Egypt in a meaningful, comfortable, and well-organized manner, we cannot recommend Mr. Khaled and this experience highly enough.

  Mr Khaled has a phd in egyptology and is a very organized and experienced guide. He is clearly an expert in his field and in every location we’ve visited we found many new interesting things about the sites although it’s not our first time here. He was very considerate and gave us a ride to our hotel after the tour. We visited a lot of objects and had a truly good time. The cruise “Moon river” was comfortable and clean. We had bathrooms and showers en-suite. The food was tasty and fitting for vegetarians with good variety.

  4 days packed with visits, be ready for very early morning wake up, but well worth it to see all these amazing sites. Boat was a bit old but ok, food was good, and we have nice tea time on the boat sundeck. Our guide Khaled did a great job at managing the schedule to do àl the sites, with a good balance of explanation and free time to explore the temples. He was very profesional and organised, was helpful with advice and bought all tickets for us in advance so no lines to purchase on sites. Overall great tour!

  

• Khaled our guide was very helpful. He managed to get us any service we asked for. He was very accomodating.

• I WOULD AVOID IT IF I WERE YOU!

  Nothing great, the only good thing is that it made us see everything we wanted to see. He was more like a guide rather than a real guide, he explained 3 things on the cross in English that left much to be desired in front of the entrances of the temples and then gave us 30 to 60 minutes to see them alone (practically you had to run), in Abu Simbel even did not come, he loaded us into the vans and told us that we would find another guide there. Then we wasted a lot of time doing things that were not in the program, like going more than 1 hour to sit in a perfumery smelling essences and perfumes (nice experience, but very avoidable) with subsequent attempts to sell them and also going more than 1 hour to see how they carve alabaster with subsequent attempts to sell even here in a day completely run because all the sites of the last day had been concentrated (it made us stay longer in this alabaster craft shop than the temple of Karnak, madness!). The night before the last day he sent a link to everyone to get the review and asked to put it 5 stars, I was waiting for the end of the tour to do it, the next morning he harassed me more than once asking me why I had not done it.

• Fascinating and interactive experience blending ancient and modern Egypt

  The 25 years of experience that Khaled our guide has is very evident. He took great care of us and arranged all of the details. He has an extensive knowledge of ancient Egypt and freely shared this with us. This experience is a busy one with many excursions, so not a leisure cruise but a great way to see Egypt.
