The reason why I picked this company is because they always communicated with me on WhatsApp. Everyone was really nice and helpful. I have never been on a cruise before. It was one fun thing after another.

Really enjoyed the cruise! We got to see many sites including temples and historical areas
Pros: not having to coordinate travel to/from sites, getting to see big highlights like Valley of the Kings and Abu Simbel, common facilities were very nice
Cons: food was hit or miss, not up front of certain prices, schedule/itinerary changes without notification (papyrus shop, perfume factory, and alabaster store), boat maintenance (window wouldn't lock, bathroom tiles broken)

I appreciated the carefully constructed itinerary and the convenience of having an agent coordinating all the different tours and moving parts.
The guides were excellent and I always felt welcomed. Hatem was particularly great, given his exceptional knowledge, passion, and friendliness.
Our tour operator, Heba Haggag, was also amazing. She was responsive and eager to make sure we were always having a good time. We appreciated her kindness and the thoughtful gift.
Our only concern on the trip was for some of the carriage horses in Edfu. Some appeared clearly in poor health and my girlfriend was saddened by the experience.
Egypt is amazing place and we won’t soon forget this trip. Thanks for everything!
