We are considering booking this Nile cruise for late February. Our party consists of two adults and one infant (0 years old). I understand that children aged 3 and under are free of charge. Could you please confirm whether it is correct to proceed with the reservation as "2 adults only", assuming the infant will share the bed with the parents and does not require a separate bed?

If the child is 4 years or less he/she will be free.

I'd like to see some photos of the 3 beds room and if it's possible to have info about Abu Simbel tour and the hot air balloon eventually to add to the cruise.

Abu Simbel costs 45 USD per person in small group excluded entrance fees, hot air balloon costs 75 USD per person.

We would like to know how much it would cost to add a visit to Abu Simbel and a hot air balloon ride. Also, do you have an option for an extra day? If we are three people, what does the room arrangement look like?

Abu Simbel is available second day at 4 am costs 45 USD per person in small group excluded entrance fees. Hot air balloon available for 75 USD per person last day at about 5 am. No availability for extra day in cruise unfortunately.

What's your drinking water cost while on the cruise?

drinks are different from boat to boat and from drink to drink, but if you want to bring your drinks with you in the boat no problems at all.

Does this tour price include entrance fees?

the price doesn't include entrance fees, drinks and Wi-Fi

Is gluten-free food available on the cruise?

Yes, gluten-free meals are available as the restaurant provides an open buffet.

Can we fly from Luxor to Cairo after the cruise?

Yes, you can take a flight from Luxor to Cairo after the cruise, and we will ensure timely transfer to the airport.

How do we arrange for airport pickup?

Our representative will be at the airport to pick you up upon your arrival.

Is there WiFi available on the cruise boat?

Yes, there is WiFi on the boat, but it's not included in the itinerary.

When does the cruise return to Luxor?

The cruise will conclude around 2 PM, and you can then transfer to Luxor airport.

For those who take the cruise especially to see the temples, there might be some frustration. The ship is rather big and it goes at the same time with hundreds other ships, which makes temple visits super crowded. Also there were delays in the schedule which made the time for the temple visit really short. We were literally running in Kom Ombo, because we were told to return in less than 1 hour, while a big group from the same ship took their time and we ended up waiting for them on board for over an hour. For us this was truly dissapointing. Communication with the organizers was not great at all. Otherwise, the room was nice, food was a lot and decent enough. The deck and Nile views were really beautiful.Show more
