What time will the drop off be at Luxor International Airport at the end of the cruise?

The drop off will be at 18:00/20:00 pm.

Can you suggest in average how much we would need for the entrance fee? Can we pay by card or does it usually require cash?

The entrance fees are approximately between $135 and $175 USD per person and will get you into all of the sites you visit. You can pay in USD, Egyptian pounds or by credit card. The tipping kitty is USD $60 per person and covers tips for all drivers and boat crew along the way. The only tips not included in the kitty are for the tour guides which you can tip at your own discretion.

interested in your tour, but my son is 7. possible? thanks

He can join the tour, there is no problem. He will pay 50% of the tour cost and will stay with you on a triple room.

Can you please advise what time the cruise finishes on the 5 Jan and what time I would be dropped off at Luxor airport

Regarding the Abu Simbel tour, it will be A/C vehicle and the pickup starts on day 2 at 04:00 am. We will prepare a boxed breakfast for you and the way to Abu Simbel Temple takes around 2 hours, the visit takes around 2 hours too then you will return to the cruise after you finish your visit.

does this itinerary covers Abu Simbel?

No, Abu Simbel is an optional tour will cost you 125 USD per person.

What is included in this tour, like transport to sites, ticket, guides etc. Also do you provide transfer to Hurghada on the last day? What types of Nile boat it is like 5*, 5* Luxury, 5* Luxury Deluxe? If possible boat name. I like to have a quote with everything included as well.

It includes your pick up from Aswan airport and drop off at Luxor airport. Transportation, tour guide, Meals (Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner) and Nile cruise accommodation. The tour doesn't include: - Crew and tour guide tips. - The entrance fees. - Pre and post-tour accommodation. - Personal expenses drinks and other meals which are not included etc. - Insurance. - Optional tours. - International flights. The cruise is a 5 Star Standard Nile cruise (Full-Board Meals Included). All cabins have a private bathroom, air-conditioned and have a large panoramic ultra violet window. There are on the cruise a swimming pool, Gymnasium, Laundry service, Bar, SPA and restaurant.

Is it possible to arrive in Aswan on 22 July and go to the North after the boat? The tour description mentions pickup at airport and drive to Luxor airport on 23, but we arrive on 22 and won't go to the airport.

If you will be in Aswan 1 day before the tour date, you just need to provide your accommodation details and address and we will arrange your transfer from it to our Nile cruise on the first day of the tour.

Where can I find the details of the optional activities? If we do not participate in an activity, what do we do? For the Nubian village for example? Are the entrance tickets for the visits included? If not, where can I find the rates? And I saw in the non-included that there was the air-conditioned minibus? In which case should we use it? And will you have to pay in addition and how much?

Here is the cost of the optional tours: Abu Simbel Tour: 125 USD per person, Hot Air Balloon Tour: 135 USD per person, Nubian Village Tour: 55 USD per person, City Tour by carriage in Luxor: 25 USD Per person, Karnak Temple Sound and Light Show at night: 60 USD per person. The entrance fees are not included in the package they are approximately between 100 USD and 125 USD per person. All your transfer will be in A/C vehicle.

I would like to establish a total budget for this cruise with visits. Not everything is included in your price, so I need information to know my total budget.

The entrance fees are approximately between $125 and $165 USD per person. The French tour guide will cost extra fees approximately 300 Euro per person. The tips are 60 USD per person and covers tips for all drivers and boat crew along the way.

I wanted to go abroad to recharge and that’s when the idea of traveling to Egypt came to me. I didn’t want to have to plan the entire itinerary by myself, so I decided to book this Nile cruise. And honestly, I have zero regrets! I spent four days on the Jaz Celebrity, a beautiful cruise ship. The service was incredible! The staff were helpful and always attentive to our needs. I want to thank my guide, Medhat, for sharing all his knowledge about Egypt with us. I became an expert thanks to him. He was attentive, helpful, and always ready to assist whenever needed. Thanks to him, my group and I were able to visit many historical sites: the Luxor Temple, Abu Simbel, etc. I’m grateful to Beyond The Nile Tours for this wonderful experience!Show more
