Magical, best way to see Egypt! - I highly recommend this trip. It was absolutely magical and the best way to see the temples and tombs. I was very happy with the level of communication throughout our trip. They were constantly checking in on us and letting us know what to expect next. The only downfall was that you do have limited time at the various sights. There were a couple where we could have used more time. The hot air balloon ride was amazing!! I am so glad we went. Be prepared though you do have to get up early almost every day.

Wonderful Luxor Tour - I had a very good time here in luxor. A wonderful experience that I will definitely repeat. The car that picked us up was clean and new. The guide (Mary) that accompanied us was very talented and knew what she was talking about. She helped us negotiate whenever we needed and helped us with all our needs. We are very thankful for everything and cannot be more happy.

4 day 3 night trip with hot air balloon from Luxor to Aswan - This was excellent. The trip we went on isn't listed, we were away for 3 nights and travelled from Luxor to Aswan, flights to and from Cairo were included. The whole operation was as smooth as clockwork, which was impressive as there were many moving parts. We booked through getyourguide, but the company used was Nice tours. Mohra kept in contact with us all the time , so we knew what was planned and timings. We were collected from our accommodation, taken to airport, collected and taken to hotel, up at 0500 for a balloon ride which was just awesome, then off to see temples, with an English speaking guide. Back to boat and an afternoon siesta! Up early the next day for more temples, back to boat to continue cruise towards Aswan, final day another early start to Abu Simbel , back to boat, then on a smaller boat to Nubian village which was very pretty and we had a delicious lunch , back to boat and then taken to airport, flight back to Cairo and taken back to accommodation. The temples were breathtaking and definitely worth seeing, It was very well organised, the guides spoke excellent English. Early mornings were necessary due to the amount to do and heat of the day so if you don't like early mornings or temples this isn't the trip for you! I would recommend without hesitation.

AT YOUR OWN RISK Hygiene issues, got sick! - Both my partner and me are sick due to the food (and I precise that we are both used to travel a lot, we took fully care of not eating uncooked food, or not drinking tap water). Despite all our precautions, we are both sick and it is very unpleasant for the rest of our trip. So I guess that there have been some strong hygiene issue on the boat/cooking which is alarming for a 5 stars cruise... Staff very nice but too pushy to make you eat or getting out of your room even if you arrived late due to the misorganization of the company. Secondly visits, balloon and guides quite good (the one of today was very good which was not necessarily the case for the others). The program is not well balanced enough as well as organization (driver didn't know the location of the boat, waiting time of 30 minutes in front of a temple whereas we had to get up early...). The pool was very dirty and noticed by all customers. Moreover if you don't have internet which needs to be paid, good luck to have the info for the timing and visits. Then water to be paid on a luxury cruise is not polite and well welcomed especially under this heat and the price we paid. Overall I would say that the experience was not a four stars experience due to all those inconveniences.
