A beautiful moment - There’s something peaceful about drifting along the Nile. I really appreciated the slower pace and the opportunity to connect with Egypt’s deep history. Abu Simbel was powerful, both in size and in spirit. The balloon ride over the Valley of the Kings was a quiet, beautiful moment I’ll never forget.

Pure magic - We started in Aswan and visited iconic temples like Philae and Kom Ombo. The rooms on the cruise were clean and cozy, and the food was surprisingly delicious. Abu Simbel was mind-blowing , it’s a long drive, but it's totally worth it. The hot air balloon over Luxor at sunrise? Pure magic!

An unforgettable journey with the best guide in Spanish - The experience has exceeded all expectations!! From the organization of the cruise and the scheduling of the activities, to the crew, always attentive and detailed, going through the most important, the best guide we could have!! Ahmed Hamman has been a discovery!! We have learned, laughed, danced and enjoyed!! He has explained in great detail the history of the temples visited with a very good Spanish and a lot of patience and good humor. The icing on the cake has been the group of Spaniards that we have agreed with and enjoyed as if we had known each other for some time!! A real luxury!!

A ten cruise experience. Our guide the best!! - Super recommended experience. The travel format can’t be better focused, with visits to the main temples on the course of the Nile and enjoy the cruise. Everyone super friendly and putting facilities, from hiring the trip through Viator with all the help of Mona to the crew of the boat super attentive and cheerful, also always left us some surprise... Special mention to Ahmed Hammam who was our guide in Spanish, we had a great time with very complete explanations and especially very good times

It has shown us all the most iconic sites in Egypt. it was super friendly and fun. I wish we could make another experience with him and the whole Viator team. thanks ❤️

The best holidays - The boat and they visit them were amazing, the attention of all the magnificent crew, they are super warm people who always welcome you with a smile and look for you to have a good time. Our guide Ahmed Hammam could not be better, he gave us the tours in Spanish and his explanations and company was excellent! On tours and at dinners we were put with 2 other couples who made our trip even better. Thank you all for making this trip an unforgettable one!

The best experience with the best guide - We cannot be happier; we have had a fantastic and unforgettable time. Our guide Ahmed Hammam behaved like a true genius... always attentive to us, always in good spirits and sharing, in perfect Spanish, all his wisdom, explaining the history of Egypt and the history of each temple in every detail. On the boat we were treated amazing, we enjoyed the food, the journey, the comfort and the many details (which I will not reveal to you now) that the crew constantly has with everyone. In short a super recommended trip and with an organization of 10! We are so grateful!

Wish it could've been longer - We've had a pleasant trip that was organised by Here Egypt Tours. After booking, we received whatsapp communication from Bassant who provided us with all the information we needed. She connected us with our tour guide, Tarek Ibrahim, who was a very kind man. We took the overnight train from Cairo, so it was nice to be picked up by an air-conditioned bus at Aswan train station by Tarek. Over the next few days it was quite a busy tour - because there is so much to see. We left early in the mornings (preferring this) to see sites with less visitors, and having the afternoons open to chill and relax. The food on the Cruise was excellent - the chef tried his best to offer a variety. We really enjoyed the foods. The Cruise Staff was not the most friendly, but you're mostly out sightseeing. I must thank our tour guide Tarek - he really made sure we wanted to do certain things. We didnt want to do 'extra' side visits like the Nubian Village, or perfumeries, so we were happy he checked what we wanted to do. Unfortunately our hot air balloon was not able to go ahead due to weather. Our guide Tarek actually informed us on the first day already, which I really appreciated. It was a government decision for safety. Overall I wish the trip could be longer - both for us and our guide. He really took us through temples fast but highly detailed. Shame, I'm sure he was more tired than us! Bassant from the operator checked in with us every day. And swiftly refunded us via Viator the hot air balloon that could not have proceeded. Highly recommended to other travelers! This coming from being highly sceptical about all the options on Viator. Thanks Bassant, Tarek & Here Egypt Tours.

Great experience, beautiful sights, top guide Ahmed! - This Nile Cruise was one of the most wonderful experiences on our Egypt tour! The temples are incredibly beautiful and we have seen so much. There may not be enough time for each sight, but the time is optimally distributed to see as much as possible in a few days. We were divided into small groups for sightseeing and with only 8-12 of us it felt almost like a privat tour. The main concern for us, when we booked this cruise, was what will be the ship like, as you get the name only 48h before checking in. But everything was great. Our ship was Kleos, I believe one of the older and with less power, but still the overal experience was excellent. The crew was very nice, friendly, polite, always ready to help and we felt comfortable. Highest praise goes to our guide Ahmed Elmahdy. Highly educated in Egyptian history and culture, very dedicated, he conveyed stories and knowledge in the most interesting way and in fluent English. Ahmed pointed out the most important things, held our full attention and we learned a lot from him. Also, what sets him apart, he knows people and the tricks of the trade (from efficient ticket buying onwards) which allowed us to be first in line sometimes and see sights more efficiently. We were thankful for having Ahmed as our guide!
