We, my daughter 19 years old and I, really enjoyed 4 nights cruise from Luxor to Assuan. Cruise boat was nice and clean, staff was nice and helpful. Food menu changed every day with plenty of choices. Our guide Ahmed was incredible: perfect English, very knowledgeable about Egyptian histories, funny and professional at the same time. All the tours were wonderful, anyone different, you never get bored. The last day, Ahmed proposed us a Nubian tour including swimming in the Nile, the cherry on the cake!!!

A gorgeous boat to cruise the river Nile and a very well organised set of tours. Food was great, staff are friendly, boat is clean, rooms are comfy (just like a hotel room), river view from every room, swimming pool on the top deck. All good included, just pay for the drinks. Tours are very well organised, run on time, just pay for the entry tickets (cash only) Tour guide Shakour was outstanding. At the start of the trip they will collect you from wherever to take you to the boat. Don’t worry if you are late, they will still get you. Everything on the itinerary is included but you can also add hot air balloon ride if you want when you arrive.
