    Hello Mr. Adam , Thank you for taking the time to review our tours , We are glad that you enjoyed the sailing and the sightseeing in general as you said , we would like to clarify that we already have 3 nights tour for Nile Cruise under the name ( River Nile Dream ) , both have same itinerary , you choose your fav one plus as a good part from our organization that there was no other guest in the day you choose , even though we organized the tour for you in PRIVATE WITHOUT extra cent , the main problem is that you though that the entrance fees to the sightseeing is included , and in fact it is not as our tour operator sent you the tour itinerary which proves that no entrance fees included , it was a pleasure to show you around , Kind Regards, Egypt Best Holidays Team

Glad that you don't have any problem at least for the tours, transfers, guide, food and so on for the 4 days, for the room Type you booked a single room and triple room (Single already had 2 beds) because for all boats in Egypt rooms have 2 beds and they add extra bed for triple room type!
