10 out of 10 experience all around! - Before the trip, I had a lot of worries about not being able to know which exact ship I will be assigned to, until only a few days before the trip. I still tried to communicate with the tour operator in advance and hope to get the information as soon as possible. Bassante from Here Egypt Tour has been so helpful with coordinating our itinerary, making sure we get the best experience on this tour. For example, we originally thought our cruise would be departing from Luxor. However, a few days before the cruise, Bassante let us know that if we depart from Luxor, we will miss the hot air balloon ride and we can either be refunded for that activity, or we can consider changing our flights to depart from Aswan instead. Also, she would be able to book us onto a nicer boat too if we depart from Aswan. Luckily, Egypt Air flight tickets can be easily canceled and refunded, so we immediately changed our tickets. Since we went during low season in the middle of summer, we were lucky enough to be booked on the very nice Steigenberger Minerva Nile Cruise. The ship was very well maintained and all the staff and service was top-notch. We love the food on board too. It was truly a haven after a long day of touring in the brutal heat. Our guide was Mohamed Shakour and he really was a big part of our trip being so enjoyable and memorable. Not only did he organise our everyday schedule so well, always communicating to us and catering to any of our requests, he was also an incredibly knowledgeable egyptologist and provided us with detailed explanations in all the spots with great passion. Throughout the trip he was more like a friend and an uncle that took very good care of us. We were really grateful to have him as our guide. Bassante from the tour company was also checking in on us by whatsapp everyday, making sure everything was in order, which is very sweet of her. And when a small unhappy incident happened to us on our day trip to Abu Simbel, even it was not the tour company's fault, they listened to us and even took the extra step to make it up to us by offering us lunch on the last day. It was these gestures that made us truly appreciate their effort in making sure their customers get the best experience. We also opted for an additional tour to see the Nubian Village, our guide on that trip, Omar, was also exceptional. 10 out of 10! I was so glad that in the sea of tour options online, I chose this one and they really delivered more than what I expected. Highly recommend everyone to go for this wonderful tour!

Amazing guide, Shakur!! - Such a scenic trip, highly recommend!! Here Egypt is the agency we booked through. Our guide, Shakur, was the best we could have had. So knowledgeable, positive, great sense of humor, and most of all, it shows that he loves what he does and cares for the people on his tour. He is one of the best guides we had on our trip overall. You will see some amazing sites, learn about ancient egypt and gain a bigger appreciation for this part of our world. Nour was instrumental in arranging our accomodations and transportation, as well as a few additional tours outside of our Nile cruise. Thank you for this wonderful experience and memories!!

Quality price, exceeds expectations. - Fantastic trip, Mohamed Hassanel guide, has been very very attentive and friendly at all times. He has accompanied us and organized all the routes (these have been private, without excess people), apart from sharing with us his entire experience with Egyptian mythology. Totally recommended. Mohamed is a 10!

Should be named Excellent Tours! - Here Egypt Tours We booked 3 nights 4 days tour by ‘Here Egypt Tours’ through Viator when our earlier tour operator ‘Mody Egypt Tours’ cancelled our booking on the last minute! Although it was not our first choice, I have to say, we had one of the best holidays with ‘Here Egypt Tours’! Ms Mona Rahim was on point on organising, always keeping in touch to see if our tour was going on fine. Our tour guide Mr Ahmed El Mahdy was very knowledgeable and guided us extremely well throughout the tour. He was very amicable and funny at times. Highly recommend him for any tours. We were picked up by the tour operator from Luxor Airport on time and were transferred to our Cruise. Our cruise ship was called ‘Semiramis’. It was a good ship with clean rooms and good facilities. The rooms were clean and included a safe, mini fridge, hair dryer, towels, bath sheets for swimming, tea- coffee making facilities etc. They did not have an iron though. All meals were included and the meals had a great selection including vegetarian dishes but you pay for the drinks separately - even water. The cruise provides afternoon teas on top deck with a selection of cakes and biscuits etc . The cruise also includes a souvenir shop, swimming pool, open gym, pool table and a massage room. The tour is fully packed and there are some really early tidings for the Balloon Ride and Abu Simbel trip. But everything is managed smoothly! For a comfortable and enjoyable no fuss holiday, I highly recommend ’Here Egypt Tours’! Some tips for a comfortable stay: - Egypt’s economy relies a lot on tourism so be ready to tip everyone whose services you use. It is rude not to tip. This is what I figured during my stay~ Taxi Drivers- US $ 3.00-5.00 Horse and Carriage - US $ 2.00-3.00 Guide (At the end of Tour)- from US $ 30.00- 40.00 ( Depending on number of days and number of people in the group-we were a family of four) Cruise Staff (At the end of stay)- from US $30.00-40.00 - When shopping for souvenirs always quote 10 times less the price. I liked a dress which was quoted at 1200 LE and bought at 200 LE. I think I could have gone much lower. So get your bargaining and haggling skills on and don’t relent. -Always be polite. Egyptian people are immensely polite and courteous. Don’t forget to smile at them and show courtesy by wishing them Good Mornings or thanking them (Shukran in Arabic). -US dollars is the most valued currency but if you wish to change money there are ATM’s that charge the same exchange rate any where you go.

Excellent tour - Value for money, excellent customer services - Mona Rahim was our travel executive from the travel firm. She thought of everything and provided information proactively. At the same time she remained connected on daily basis during out tour to ensure that we did not experience any issues. She was just a message away. This is an exceptional service. The tour guide selected by Mona was Al-Ahmed Mahdy who was assigned as 1-2-1 and was throughout with us. He is very experienced, knowledgeable and very jovial . I will definitely recommend this tour firm. Thanks

lousy cruise - As soon as we arrive, they assign us cabin 315, which is flooded, the carpet was submerged in the water, the rotten smell was enormous, they changed it for another one with the legs of a bed broken, my daughter threw it against the floor as soon as she went to bed, it was They change again for another one, the last one I couldn't sleep, the engines fill the room with such noise that you have to leave, only a few waiters and a good guide are saved, a very good person Mohamed. When you pay by card they charge you a 3% commission, don't let them ruin your vacation like us, changing boats and suppliers, you will only be merchandise for them
