    Amazing experience to see first hand the temples of the ancient Egyptians. The boat was great, a serene and relaxing experience to sail down the vast expanse of the Nile, our guide Saber was knowledgeable, took great care of the group and had a great sense of humour, a lovely person, 5 stars for him.

    I had a great experience on my Nile cruise thanks to our guide, Mohamed Gobran. He was extremely knowledgeable, sharing the rich history of each site in a way that was both engaging and easy to understand. I also really appreciated his punctuality and professionalism throughout the trip. If you’re looking for someone reliable and well-informed, I definitely recommend Mohamed!

    The cruise itself is amazing and I would definitely recommend it. But even though I signed up for Sunday departure, I got a call at 13:00 the day before that the cruise had been rescheduled for Monday departure. I couldn't get a refund because the cancellation deadline had passed, so I had to rearrange my entire travel schedule. I asked a lot of questions on the viator chat, but never got a reply... So it is ☆4. The cruise rooms were very nice and I had no complaints. The prices paid separately on the cruise are as follows: · $105 (all admission fees) and $19 (tips) in cash or card on the first day of the cruise. · Add sightseeing in Nubia village on the first day for $25 (I don't think you need to go there because it's so hot in summer). · Payment for drinks during cruise (cash or card) on the third night · Lunch on the last day is not included, so £400 per person (cash or card) ・On the last day, give the guide any tip in cash. On the last day, the tour ended at around 14:00 if we could go to Karnak Temple on the third day, and around 16:00 if we could not. I was very indebted to our tour guide Mohammed Gobran, who was a lovely guide. We had a little trouble, but we were very happy with the price and the tour!!
