Nile Cruise

5.00I had a wonderful experience on this Nile cruise. The boat was very clean, and the service and staff was excellent throughout my stay. Heba, the tour coordinator, was always attentive and answered my questions as quickly as possible. Ahmed, my assigned guide for four days from Luxor to Aswan, was professional, knowledgeable, and very friendly throughout, which made me feel safe during the trip (solo traveler). I felt very well taken care of from start to finish, and the organization of the tours was impeccable. I recommend this cruise to anyone visiting Egypt and this agency.
You will learn so much!

5.00During our time on the Nile we visited Karnak Temple, Luxor Temple, Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut Temple, Edfu Temple, Kom Ombo Temple, the High Dam in Aswan, and Philae. And, of course, we also took the day trip to Abu Simbel. All these sites were made meaningful and exciting for us by our tour-guide, Ahmed. Over our time together, he taught me how truly to see. When we started, I didn’t know much about Egypt’s history and monuments, and the first few temples and tombs were impressive for their sheer vastness and ancientness. Quickly I realised that each one had something unique and precious to teach. I came to understand why some figures were chiseled out of the stone/redacted, to recognize which figures were royal and which were gods, to distinguish between the 22 crowns worn by the royalty, to spot the tell-tale changes in colour which indicate where a site was submerged in sand/water before being excavated, and even to read some of the hieroglyphics. With each site, Ahmed built on our knowledge, repeated and consolidated what we had already learnt, and responded to our questions, often going off-script to tell us (very excitedly) about other features of the site. Overall, the impression I have of him is that he is someone who really knows his stuff. And who really genuinely cares about it too. As we got to know him better, a real affection developed, and we felt like he was someone we could trust to advocate for us, to guide us with the logistics of getting around Egypt, and to share with us his knowledge and expertise. I suspect we only just scratched the surface of all he had to teach.

5.00As a world traveler, I can assure you that travel in Egypt is more astounding and more unforgettable than most anywhere else in the world. Of course, getting comfortably and safely around as a foreigner can be challenging. You want to see the wonders and avoid the difficulties and challenges. Well, this is the tour to go on! Our host, Ahmed, Abass, was knowledgeable, helpful, invariably patient, and kind. We felt cared for, respected, and came to feel that Ahmed was a friend. The other people that assisted Ahmed were also extraordinary. This tour operator has curated a special group of people, particularly knowledgeable, and extraordinarily helpful. I highly recommend this tour. I hope you get to travel with Ahmed Abass. Anyway, the entire operation is excellent. We had a blast!
Fantastic

First cruise trip

5.00First trip to Africa with my daughter 🇪🇬 I was overwhelmed by ancient construction techniques on the verge of Karnak temple and structures 🔨 The cruise ship trip was fun and the staff and Guides were kind 😊 We were able to enjoy the quiet flow of the Nile without any shaking inside the ship. Just do your best to get up early as there is a lot of early sightseeing due to the heat 🥵 There are many delicious fruits and dishes, so be careful not to overeat 🥘 Please enjoy your trip to Africa✈️🚢
Perfect scenic cruise experience on the Nile

5 day Nile River Cruise from Luxor to Aswan
Katrin1216,,Mar 31, 2024
- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00This was an amazing trip to ancient Egypt and its rich culture. The cruise and daily trips were so well organized thanks to our wonderful guide Ahmed. He made sure that we get everything we needed, starting from our packed breakfast to the entrance ticket to the sights. He was super knowledgeable and guided us through the sometimes very busy sights, pointing out important highlights and explaining their significance. The food on board was a bit low on spices, except the Arabian buffet, which was a party for your taste buds.. The entertainment on board has room for improvement, but since we left early for our day trips on most days we were too tired to stay up late anyway. The house keeping was another positive surprise, because we were greeted everyday with another creation.
Amazing tour of Egypt!

5.00Amazing! I mean what else can be said. This tour offers all that one dreams to see in Egypt. It was such a great once in a lifetime experience. Seeing all the sights was breath taking especially Abu Simbel. This tour is worth every penny. Everything was smooth and well organized. One of the things that made this so special was the tour guide Ahmed. I have travelled to a good amount of places in the world and I have never had a better guide then Ahmed. I battered him with questions and he knew it all. He is a walking history book! Besides just knowing the history, he was funny and took good pics of us (my wife and I). He helped make our trip superb and memorable! What a great tour, thank you!
