Best Guider in Egypt!

5.00Our guider was Talaat Abdo. He was an incredible guider and helper, I couldn't feel more safe, he was always taking care of the crew and making sure everyone was following him well. He is clearly very skilled, showing expertise in the history of Egypt and making each touristic site more meaningful. His good humor made every moment fun! The guy knows how to crack a good joke! The cruise was nice, good food, nice accommodations, and very kind clerks. The SPA area have good massage, but the place itself is a little old. It would be nice to renew the place. The massage was good, and made my time in the cruise more relaxing.
Don't miss it!

5.00The cruise started from Aswan. The first day we checked in the cruise ship and after that we visited the high dam and philae temple. Philae temple was 5/5, high dam not really worth visiting. Next day we visited Abu Simbel (5/5) and then the cruise ship departed. We arrived in Kom ombo (night tour, very beautiful) and slept on board. Next morning we visited edfu temple(very beautiful also) and then sailed to Luxor through Esna lock. At late afternoon we arrived at Luxor and had a night tour at Luxor temple! Next day we visited west side of Luxor and in the afternoon we were dropped off to our hotels! The cruise ship (m/s renaissance) was very nice with excellent service, clean rooms and delicious food buffet. Our guide KHALDED EL SAADI was very nice and explained us everything about Egyptian history and temples and did his best to make us happy! The only disadvantage is that as all the cruise ships do the same programs at the same time, so all the temples are super crowded for one hour when all the tourists from the cruise ships visit them and then they are super empty. Overall I would rate the experience as a 5star especially if you need to be stress free and enjoy some free time on board drinking tea or juice and also visit all the historical places.
