First of all, we would... - First of all, we would like to thank Monaliza from Viator who really helped us to set up this trip, she communicated with us upfront to make everything being as smooth as possible. We also very appreciated that she considered our personal demands. Monaliza, thanks a lot for your help!!
Regarding the cruise, we had a wonderful time and we had chance to visit marvelous places full of history and beauty, that was mind blowing! The different steps were very well organized and the communication with our guide Shakour was very clear.
The room was very nice, perfect for our pre-wedding trip, and travelling with these landscapes were definitely wonderful!
The only negative point would be the tipping parts. We have been informed by Monaliza that they would be tips, but we didn't expect that much of tips. Several times a day we were forced to give tips to people and we didn't have the choice of the amount. More especially at the check out of the cruise, the boat manager required a very specific amount for the cruise crew. We would have preferred these tips to be included in the total cost upfront.
Apart from that, everything was great and we really recommend the trip!

Great experience and good value - We had a great time with my partner doing this trip. For the 4 days the schedule is tight but still manageable and very well organized. Our guide Tarek was great. The boat that we had was called Royal Olivia Signature and also was perfect, a small issue with our room was swiftly fixed and then everything was smooth. Totally recommended

Great Experience! - Great service, great staff. I took this cruise with my family and we had an incredible time, the buffet food was varied and very delicious, the rooms, although small, were very comfortable. The ship always left on time.

The cruise is quite good, perfect if you are not in Egypt for many days. - The cruise is good, the staff friendly. You see quite a few attractions in a few days, it is perfect if you plan to go to Egypt for a short time and make the most of your time.
Mona was very attentive throughout the trip, in case we had any problems. He put us in touch with our guide, and he did everything he could to make everything go well.
Our guide in Spanish, Mohamed, very nice and very attentive. He solved the problems and gave us advice that has been useful to us. Plus it explains everything quite well.😁🤝

Fantastic cruise thru history - Excellent package overall. Our guide Mohammed Wafa was the best. Informative, attentive and caring. The cruise was also really good, food (buffet) was excellent. The staff on the cruise did seem somewhat checked-out, especially towards our group, vs. rest of the travelers. But I wouldn't hold this tour provider accountable for it, we did convey our feedback directly to the cruise admin. Highly recommend this, especially for our guide Mohammed👍🏼

Pleasant - Nile Cruise, Great way to get around. Nice to not have to re-pack your suitcase every morning. Your hotel room follows you. Small boat of around 50 to 60 rooms. Facilitates boarding and disembarkation. Regarding the room, very comfortable, a good-sized bathroom, and well maintained.
Very popular around 250 cruise boats between Luxor and Aswann. We are not alone. But I recommend 10/10.

A once in a lifetime experience - You can experience 10 facilities and activities, including Abu Simbel, Aswan High Dam, Temple of Isis, Temple of Horus, Luxor Temple, Karnak Temple, ballooning on the west bank of Luxor, Valley of the Kings, Colossi of Memnon, and Temple of Hatshepsut. This cruise allows you to experience the main tourist attractions from Aswan to Luxor. You can go to Abu Simbel, the dam, and Temple of Horus by microbus from the ship anchored on the east bank of Aswan. Abu Simbel on the second day was a round trip of 8 hours by car, but it was worth it. The ship finally departs in the afternoon of the second day, and you can enjoy a comfortable trip on the Nile. On the third day, you arrive at Edfu in the morning and travel from the dock to the Temple of Horus by horse-drawn carriage. From there, you can travel down the river again. You arrive at Luxor in the evening and walk to and from Luxor Temple. On the fourth day, you go for a balloon ride early in the morning. From there, you can go around the Valley of the Kings and Hatshepsut by bus. The fourth day is particularly busy, but you can take them all. ...I find it hard to go there because it's too local for me. Other than the prepaid tour fee, the self-paid expenses are the entrance fees to the facilities (the balloon fee is included in the tour fee, not separate), tips, and drinks. The entrance fees to the facilities are surprisingly high. About 2,000 to 2,500 yen per facility.
The food is okay, and there are no problems with eating it. The bread is different from that in Japan, it's simple, has a strong wheat scent, and is not watery, but I think it's delicious. The rice is also just as delicious. Egyptian food is spicy, but not too salty, and easy to eat. It's not super high-class, but it was a pretty normal and comfortable stay. I joined the English guide team, and they spoke slowly, so I was able to understand most of it. Thank you.
If there are any problems, it's that 1. The detailed schedule was not provided with this reservation, so there were many unclear points about when, where, and how to go around specifically. 2. The pick-up location was written as anywhere in Aswan, but since I specified a hotel on the west coast, they couldn't come, so I received an email the day before specifying a KFC on the east coast. I wasn't told any specific places to visit along the way, and just before I left I was told that we were going to go there next. Well, I'm really glad I did, because I definitely wouldn't have been able to get around by myself.

Pleasurable but tiring - The boat was lovely, but a little tired in places, particularly the flooring. The staff were very good and at one point I needed some medication, the concierge went to a pharmacy for me and wouldnt take payment. Our housekeeper Jimmy was so nice and not only kept our room lovely and clean, he also left lovely designs each day with our towels. The food was excellent, there was a huge variety and plenty of it and the service was bery good. All of the communal areas of the boat were beautifully furnished and we loved the sun deck, it was so relaxing. The tours werent the greatest our first excursion to the High Dam and Philae temple were very rushed, our second excursion was to Abu Simbel and although the site was amazing a 4am start with 4hr each way travel without stops was not great. We skipped the third excursion to Edfu, as we were so tired from the Abu Simbel trip. On arrival to Luxor we went on a hot air balloon ride which involved leaving/checking out at 5.15am, it was an amazing experience which we thoroughly enjoyed, we went on to Hatshepsut Temple, The Valley of the King's, Calossus of Memnon, The Unesco Workshop, Karnack Temple and by then it was 2pm and were still scheduled to visit Luxor Temple, but we gave up due to walking 15700 steps in 37 degree heat, no break to eat (sorry 15mins to on the bus inbetween one of the sites to quickly eat our prepacked breakfast from the hotel), it was truly gruelling and both myself and my Mother were starting to feel quite ill. Although I have to say the guide Tarek was fantastic, very knowledgeable and the sights were amazing, but it was just too much. In my opinion far too many activities were crammed into too small an amount of time throughout the cruise and definitely in Luxor, it spoilt what was otherwise an amazing little cruise.
