Superb visit to VOK, VOQ and Hatshepsut's Temple. - I would 100% recommend this tour. It couldn't have gone more smoothly from start to finish, Our guide, Ashraf, sent us a message the day before to confirm the start time and pick up point. He was waiting for us in the boat lobby on time and was very friendly and so knowledgable.
He soon picked up just the right level of information we needed - not too simple, and not too detailed either. We were given as much time as we need in each of the sites. We had been on a previous tour to the Valley of the Kings and it was so rushed. Ashraf gave us all the time we needed to explore five tombs. I must recommend the extra visit to Seti I tomb. It is the most expensive but worth every penny. Valley of the Queens was not available with out tour company so it was a superb inclusion in this tour. Highly recommend as it is much quieter that VOK - at times we were the only ones inside the tomb. Again, at Hatsheput's temple we were given all the time we needed. We had an unexpected quick stop at Memnon too which was a nice surprise. We were offered, but declined, a visit to a pottery factory. There was no hard sell at all on this but as we had already been out for 6 hours we wanted to get back for lunch, otherwise we would have been happy to visit. The taxi driver was polite and we felt very safe at all time.
This was my first experience of booking my own tour and not going through the tour operator. I wish I had done more like this for the rest of the days of our cruise. It was much cheaper and tailored exactly to our needs. Ashraf really knew his stuff and with just four of us in the group we were not being herded around. We got excellent value for money - 6 full hours to explore the East Bank with a great guide.

An unforgettable trip to ancient Egypt - This Nile cruise is a brand new adventure. Our guide Hany was very professional, he had a deep understanding of ancient Egyptian culture and the explanations were very vivid. Each stop at the site gave me a unique sense of the charm of ancient Egyptian civilization. The meals on board are very rich and unique. Balloon flights are the best part, overlooking the entire Nile basin and offering picturesque views. Both the organization and the service of the trip are perfect and truly recommended for anyone who wants to explore ancient Egypt.

I highly recommend this experience to anyone who wants to discover the heart of Egyptian history without worries.

Ancient artifacts and architecture - The tour of the Valley of the Kings and the temple of Hatshepsut was a real revelation for me. These ancient structures are impressive in their architecture and history. Our guide shared such interesting facts that I felt part of Egypt's great heritage. It is not only the appearance of the temples that is admirable, but also their importance in the history of the country. These artifacts will always be in my heart.
