If you are in Egypt, you should be on this tour. Covered Aswan,Luxor in details. The Guide Michael was too good. The information he gave was making the sightseeing interesting. He had full knowledge on the sites and the history. The cruise was good and we enjoyed it. Sailing was only for 1 and half day , so we were at the same place for 2 nights , not very interesting thing in the cruise. All else cool

The cruise experience was really nice. Staff, food, timings was good. Each guide was very helpful and knowledgeable, especially Abanoub who helped us also with logistics matters. The only thing I did not appreciate is that in Aswan they brought us to a perfume shop where in somehow tourists are gently pushed to buy, I would have preferred to know in advance the type of shop and prices it was, since it wasn't cheap and then to decide whether to go or not.

I had a great experience on a four-day Nile River cruise. The cruise ship was beautiful, the staff was friendly and the food was sublime. I visited many historic sites and enjoyed my guide, Mr. Abanoub's explanations, which were very easy to understand. Thank you to all the people we met on this cruise.
