  We had a 3 night/4 day program with out guide Mohamed Gobran, from Aswan to Luxor. Mohamed is very friendly and nice, he explains everything in an interesting way through stories. We had free time at the each place in order to take pictures and look around. Communication over whatsapp was easy and we arranged everything nicely. Highly recommended.

• Great temples, tombs and balloon ride

  The tours, temples, tombs were amazing. Mahmoud our guide was very knowledgeable. The boat wasn’t 5 stars but we didn’t spend a lot of time on it (particularly didn’t sleep much due to the early starts!) but you have to start early to avoid the blistering heat! The balloon ride was spectacular- it was cancelled on initial day due to winds and we only thought of the great friends we made on the tour missing it due to flying home.

• Great value. Would do again

  Overall great cruise and great value. You will not sleep much because the schedule is very packed but I loved it because you get to see everything. This is not a luxury cruise and the food is nothing special but it’s ok. The main point is that is very efficient at showing you all the temples. Our guide Mohamed was very nice, hard working and kept everything going smooth and timely. However I must sadly say that his accent was a bit thick and it was hard to understand the explanation of the history of the temples. The rest of the staff was very pleasant and helpful. They picked us up at the airport on time and went out of their way to get our room ready earlier than usual because our flight was so early. I was happy they accommodated us. Some things to keep in mind when booking this cruise: 1. drinks or water are not included, but water is cheap everywhere and you can buy outside and bring into the boat so not a problem. They also keep water for purchase inexpensively in the tour bus all the time. For coffee addicts like me, they do provide a complementary coffee station every morning. 2. The cruise does not sail the whole time. And they’ll take you to a few temples by bus including Abu Simble which is a 4hr ride each way, but trust me it’s totally worth it. 3. Try your hardest to have multiples of 2 people because every room in the cruise is the same size. My friends and I were only 3 and they put us all together in a tight room, same space as for two people but you pay the same, no discount for the lack of space. If you’re two people to a room is perfectly roomy. Bathroom is a bit small but expected for an average cruise. And everything was clean. 4. The hot air balloon ride is not a guarantee because it depends on weather and wind conditions for safety. They will let the tour guide know the day before if it’s a go or not. Thankfully for us it was and it was absolutely amazing, worth the price of the entire cruise in my experience, so good luck. 5. Bring a mask for Edfu temple, it’s extremely dusty and air pollution is highest there. 6. The entrances for the temples are not included in the price. They will collect it at the beginning including the tip for the staff which was a fair amount. Total it ended up being around an extra $150 So great cruise. Didn’t give it 5/5 but I would do it again! Enjoy
