We had a wonderful 4-day Nile cruise with our tour guide Mohammed. We visited all the great temples. We got a good overview over Egyptian history. Everything was very well organized, from the transport to the timing — almost no waiting at all. The cruise itself offered excellent food and service. Mohammed also arranged things flexibly when we decided to skip one of the excursions.

Our trip was amazing and it was mainly because of our guide Mohammed! He was very friendly, had a high knowledge of history and always helped us with any inquiries (transfer, timetable, etc). The tour itself was great as we got to see many sights and temples and understood more of the Egyptian culture. Mohammed was the ideal guide for us and I would highly recommend it to anyone!

Mahmoud the tour guide make this trip worth while. He's extremely knowledgeable and very kind. He accommodated such a large group. Highly recommend this tour if you want to see Aswan and Luxor with everything in between.

We’ve just come back from a three-night Nile cruise from Aswan to Luxor, and it honestly couldn’t have been better. From the moment we stepped on board, everything ran so smoothly and felt really special. Our guide, Mahmoud, was brilliant. He knew everything there was to know about the history and sites, but what really stood out was the way he explained things with so much enthusiasm and humour. He kept everyone relaxed and made sure we didn’t miss a thing. The boat was lovely – clean, comfortable, and a great place to unwind after busy days exploring. We managed to see so many incredible places, including Abu Simbel, the Valley of the Kings, and the stunning Temple of Karnak. One of my favourite moments was visiting Karnak early in the morning before the crowds arrived – it felt calm and almost magical. To top it all off, we finished our trip with a sunrise balloon ride over Luxor, which was absolutely unforgettable. It was the perfect way to end an amazing few days. I can’t thank Mahmoud enough for making the experience so enjoyable. If you’re thinking about doing a Nile cruise, I’d definitely recommend it and if you can, ask for Mahmoud as your guide!!

This cruise was a heap of fun! Great way to explore all of the sites between Aswan and Luxor, and the times cruising along the Nile had beautiful views from the room and the boat’s sundeck. Our guide Amr Difallah was wonderful- he was very enthusiastic, knowledgeable and funny.
