Traveller reviews

“Stunning trip down the Nile from Aswan to Luxor”
07 Mar 2025
- [x] We had a wonderful time on our 3 night Nile cruise from Aswan to Luxor and it really exceeded our expectations. Our rooms were spacious and comfortable, the staff were friendly and very helpful and the food was delicious varied and plentiful. We had our own private guide and driver Salah and Mahmoud from Egypt Tailor Made who took us to all the sites Temple of Philae, KomOmbo, and Edfu, Karnak and Luxor and the Valley of the Kings etc. and a sail in a felluca at Aswan. We visited Abu Simbel the day before joining the cruise and stayed the night there which I definitely recommend, we visited in the afternoon without all the day tours so it was very quiet and we saw the Sound and Light show in the evening so had a second look at the temple exterior. It was a magical experience. Our cruise wa There is a tip box in reception for all the many staff who make this memorable, the suggested tip from previous reviews is 10 usd per traveler per day so for 5 of us and 3 days was 150 usd but was so happy with everything we did 200 usd. We also tipped a little Egyptian money to our waiter, the bag carriers and the guy who made beautiful and hilarious sculptures with our towels. I do think travelling from Aswan to Luxor was better for our group we loved finishing with the Karnak and Luxor Temples and the Valley of the Kings and more economical being 3 nights.

“A lovely boat with superb food & delightful staff. A fantastic experience all round.”

We really enjoyed our stay on this really lovely boat. It was so much nicer than we expected which really top notch food with 3 full meals a day with a great choice of food. The staff were all delightful & couldn't do enough to help us. Each place we docked was in a convenient position for visiting all the sites & as we were doing our own thing & not the organised tour this worked for us perfectly.

“Superb”

We were recommended by a friend in Egypt who took the cruise before, and it did not disappoint. Particularly Mr. Ahmed Awad went beyond and above solving a small issue we had.
