I recently had an exceptional experience on a 6-day Nile River cruise. The support I received before, during, and after the trip was outstanding. All the people involved in the tour, including the driver, tour guides, and travel coordinator, were faultless. Bassant, the travel coordinator, was particularly attentive and ensured that everything went smoothly. She provided timely support and kept me informed throughout the journey. I highly recommend this trip and you will not regret.

Good tour! Our guide was good and knowledgable and this was a nice way to see Luxor and Aswan. Mona from Viator was very attentive and helpful throughout the trip and was in very regular contact.
Some of the logistical planning could have been better--seemingly unnecessary early mornings left us very tired, and if you don't purchase all the additional experiences there's a good amount of waiting time.

Owfi was a great guide throughout the trip. He is knowledgeable and answered any questions I had. I enjoyed that the explanations were to the point and he gave ample free time. He was flexible with time and worked with the group. Even on the water day he spent time hanging out. Would recommend the trip.

Where to start…
Coordinator Miss Bassant handled everything start to finish. I was worried but she handled all logistics .
Tour guide Rocky was excellent . 15 year’s experience.
Ship “ Magic lady Carol “ was by far the nicest one I saw . Had all amenities. Small cruise ship.
Highly suggest an extra 1-2 days in Luxor after cruise and book Rocky for day trips to Valley of the queens, Alexandria, and others he recommends .
Tip tip tip. It’s expected and appreciated. 50 E-pounds goes a long way to smooth service everywhere .
Highly recommended this tour/ cruise .
One caution - 6 days is a red herring.
Day 1 and 6 are arrive/ depart .
Night 1 and 5 are sleeper trains.
You get 4 proper tour days and 3 nights on the boat.
Recommend flying Cairo Aswan to start your tour and skip the first sleeper train. Bassant will coordinate .

We were very well taken care of since the moment we were picked up from our hotel to the train station till the last day when the driver brought us back. Felt very safe. The guide Mohamed Shakour was amazing, with the great knowledge of Egyptian history and very kind personal approach to the needs of every member of our small group. I forgot my hat on the train and he made sure it was found and returned to me. Lots of thanks! The whole trip was organized very well, very thoughtful program; good food at the restaurant and very friendly attentive staff. It is definitely a must to do while in Egypt!

I highly recommend this trip. Sabry our guide was amazing. He showed us all the jewels of the Nile with amazing insights of modern and contemporary history of Egypt as well as great knowledge of ancient Egypt. Two thumbs up. The cruise in itself was pretty good, service was top notch, the food was excellent and varied. I am sure I'll do it again 😊

Very pleasant stay, Owf was a great guide, lots of fun to be with.
The cruise has some difficulty managing food allergies, that was a bit unfortunate.

The ship was wonderful...I had an upper room with a 7 meter view. Food was really good and salads fabulous. Our guide Mohammad was kind, & very informative. The company took excellent care of me making sure I was picked up from my lodging and personally placed me on the train with assistance of a police officer...I felt very safe traveling as a solo older woman.
Heart felt Thanks 🙏🙏🙏 to the whole crew. Saw everything.
