Budget Nile River Cruise Reviews
- Immortal Egypt - GEM visit - 5 stars accommodation
This is a very good tour as an introduction to ancient Egypt. The objects selected in the itenary are amazing, even without adding anything on. The train trip to Aswan is an experience straight from shabby 1960, last maintenance of the carriages. Never worried about safety. Food was excellent. Great guide Ahmed Kasim. Pretty crowded everywhere. Relaxing time at Hurghrada.
- Special Egypt 10 Days : Cairo- Aswan-Luxor & Hurghada by Flight
This trip was a dream. Spectacular, amazing, awe inspiring. I just don't have enough words to recommend it enough. The guides and drivers all were fantastic and went out of their way to make the trip special in every single way. In order of meeting, Mustafa, Mohammed (driver), Hassan (guide),Bassam (guide), Mohamed (driver), Mustafa (in Luxor), Omar (guide). Every one of them were amazing!! We added on a day at the beginning and saw the newly opened Egyptian museum. We did a Nile dinner cruise that day. Both of these add ons were facilitated through the tour operators. I did an add on hot air balloon ride in Luxor (highly recommended) as well as a visit to the Nubian village in Aswan with a camel ride (amazing!). Again, everything was highly organized and facilitated through the tour. Just so many amazing experiences were had and lasting friendships were made. Best experience of our lives.

The cruise ship was great. But our tour guide Mohamed Edasy was fantastic. He was so knowledgeable and proud of his country and history that it elevated the whole expierience.
