    An absolutely amazing and unforgettable experience. Heba and Mohammed made this perfect. Almost instantly after making my reservation, Heba reached out to me to ensure that we have arrangements to be picked up in Aswan from our train. She also set us up with our amazing tour guide and Egyptologist Mohammed, who was an absolute joy to be around and gave us the exact context and information needed to enjoy all of the amazing temples and tombs we saw. Make sure you go on as many temple tours as possible! This experience is absolutely packed with some of the most amazing things any of us on the tour had ever seen in our lives. The hot air balloon ride was pretty amazing as well.
    The food was great too, a good mix of western cuisine and some Egyptian/local flavor.
    I must give special attention to the fact that Heba and Mohammed helped me we my engagement proposal and it was absolutely perfect (ask Heba if you want to make ANY special plans, she’s very accommodating and has great ideas!!) Heba is very attentive to make sure that you’re having the best time and she communicated with us consistently throughout the trip. I even worked with Heba to recommend us tours and transport for our time in Cairo, following our cruise.
    All in all, an unforgettable experience I wouldn’t trade for anything!! Very very highly recommend.

    The whole trip was memorable! This cruise was above my expectations. The cruise, crew, food, attractions, belly dancing on the cruise, hot air balloon, and the most not the last our tour guide, Ahmad was wonderful! Ahmad was extremely knowledgeable and a fun guide. He made our tours so much fun. The food was excellent and crews were very nice and respectful. I highly recommend this cruise to everyone.

    Attended the cruise with my family and had a great time. Ahmed was very knowledgeable of the area and history. Boat staff and food were great. We had kids traveling with us and they also had a great experience.

  5. Zane_A

    Wife and I, both in our mid 60’s made the trip and had an amazing experience. Ahmed was incredibly accommodating since we’re not as mobile as others and easily answered all our questions. Food was great and the rooms were very comfortable.

  6. Zane_A

    Ahmed our guide made it an amazing trip for the family. Absolutely the best way to see the Egypt. Food was great and the staff were super friendly and great with kids. Traveled with wife and kids ages 7 & 9.

    This Nile River Cruise is a must if you are staying in Egypt for the first time, or if you have never done it before.
    Mohammed was our tour guide. He is extremely knowledgeable and makes sure everyone in the group has a good understanding of what is depicted in all the ancient sites.
    If you go to Egypt knowing nothing about the history, you will leave fully informed after spending some time on a tour with Mohammed.
    He took his time with the whole group and went out of his way to make sure all of us were spoken for and were comfortable throughout the trip, no matter what.
    Highly recommended

    My partner and I had an amazing time on this cruise and would highly recommend it to anyone.
    Our tour guide Zakarya was extremely knowledgeable and engaging, and made sure to give us a solid background on the history and myths relating to each temple/tour location, in addition to pointing out fascinating scientific and historical facts about the location and the hieroglyphs and depictions at each site. He also went out of his way to accompany us to our airline carrier’s office when we had issues with our flight, and we had an excellent time on our tours.
    The boat itself, Zeina, was also lovely with cool old school decor and a nice sundeck, and the staff were friendly and helpful- we loved just chilling out on the roof and watching the Nile pass by when we were on the move.
    All in all this is an excellent way to see Aswan and Luxor and have tours and transport arranged for you and an extremely knowledgeable guide to take you round Luxor.

    We had a great trip on the cruise from Aswan to Luxor with our wonderful guide Zakarya who takes us through the different stories from ancient Egyptian history. Makes us feel awe at the magnificence of the great temples of Egypt! Highly recommended!

    From the start to the end everything was perfect. The boat is luxury with everything you need. The staff are friendly and the food is amazing. Almost every day we had very knowledgeable private guide. Expecially we like Hatim. I highly recommend this trip. Heba made us unforgettable vacation. Thank you for that. Don’t hesitate to book. You will remember it forever.

    Heba our tour agent was superb, we WhatsApped daily to organise our nine people, she was so efficiant I really can’t praise her enough. It was an amazing trip because of her imput + help which I really could not have done without her.

    I did this cruise with my father he 68 years old with problems of mobility and we enjoy. The Guide Mrs Rocky was very attentive, already to help and support us all time. We loved him. The best Guide.
    Our group was small only 4 people (included us).
    The food was very good taste and a Egyptian dinner was wonderful.
    The boat was good, clean.
    The only cons: rush times for to do everything. Is amazing country and have a lot of history, temples and can be very busy to do all for only 3 days.
    By the way the Boat just started sealing in the end of 2nd day that we slept first and last day without view.
    So, I recommend for sure this experience with Rocky Guide.
    We enjoyed a lot. I hope see him again.

    Cruise accommodations were outdated, but the crew was extremely friendly. Food was decent and plenty. The itinerary is very busy, but you get to see a lot of sites in a short period of time. We had a small group (4) and were paired with two couples for the tours. Our guide, Ahmed, was very knowledgeable and helpful. At most sites, we didn’t have to wait in line as he was prepared with the tickets. He offered recommendations of other activities and made sure we were aware of the next day’s schedule giving us enough time to plan for it.

  15. Shi_W

    Our tour guide, Ahmed, is so knowledgable and helpful. The ancient monuments became alive under his explanation. He made this tour reach another level.

    We had the most amazing time on this cruise. Our tour guide, Owf was welcoming, accommodating, extremely kind and kept the tour fun and informative. He is very knowledgeable and loves to teach about the temples. We had an amazing view from our 4th floor room. Not sure what the other floors views are like. Definitely will book again.

    Firstly, there was good communication from the cruise company, although they did try and offer us a different, supposedly better boat, on the morning of the cruise – however it would have missed out Abu Simbel. We declined.
    The boat we had was the Nile Jewel. The staff were all wonderful but the room was even more cramped than I’d expected – we were a group of 3 and they’d just squeezed 3 single beds into the standard cabin (i.e. one that two people would usually share). The room also felt a bit damp. It was generally fine. Food was good and plentiful although the breakfast bags for the early morning excursions left a lot to be desired.
    The itinerary was ok but did seem to land us at several monuments (e.g Abu Simbel) at peak times hampering our enjoyment. Our guide was also a bit hit and miss and his knowledge was somewhat lacking in places.
    We finished the cruise exhausted due to 2 X 4am starts and 1 X 6am start. The one afternoon we had to relax on the boat cruising down the Nile was wonderful.

    The whole trip was amazing staff always happy well organized the tour guide was very helpful food was amazing

  19. Harish_B

    Fantastic experience. I must admit i was unsure of what we were booking for at first but We loved every minute of our travel.

  20. Ashish_K

    Our entire trip was incredible, and created memories of a lifetime – and that’s hugely down to our guide Owf Najar. We were a family of 12 (including two elderly and four kids aged between 8-11 years).
    Cruise
    The cruise ship was comfortable and clean, the kitchen staff worked very hard to accommodate for us as vegetarians.
    Sights
    The sights we saw were incredible – yes it was early starts but it was absolutely worth it. Abu Simbel blew us away and Valley of the Kings (we highly recommend paying a bit extra to see Tutankhamun’s tomb) was amazing as expected. The hot air balloon ride was the cherry on top with fantastic views.
    Guide – Owf
    The highlight for us was our guide Owf. His passion for Egypt and his history knowledge was incredible, he really looked after us like we were family and made sure we were safe and comfortable at ALL times. Best of all he was an incredible teacher who could bring history alive for adults and kids, he made sure we got the best of every historical site we visited. He communicated perfectly, made us feel home away from home, he’s a gem and does his whole country proud. I’m sure many guides are high quality but if you want extra magic I highly recommend asking for Owf.
    Overall this was great value for money and we created memories of a lifetime.
