Excellent trip! We so enjoyed our Nile cruise - wonderful staff on the Opera, and the most incredible Egyptologist Mohamed Albasha. Mohamed curated our tours and brought the beauty and history of Egypt to life in the most incredible way! Thank you Mohammed! Thank you Opera staff!

All the elements separately (e.g. the cruise, the guides, the excursions) where fine. Just communication was poor.
+ Staff on the cruise was very friendly. Food was great.
+ The different guides I had for the different excursions where all good.
+ Balloontrip was very professional and a great and very helpful guy there. Ashraf.
+ I was lucky that a few of the visits where even private tours. The other visits in small groups.
+ Local representative in Aswan, Mina, was great. He even arranged a trainticket for me, saving me a lot of time.
- Communication was poor, I felt a bit lost.
- No guide in Abu Simbel (don't know why not, since we had a guide at all the other tempels)

4 days - 3 nights-Luxor to Aswan, Abu Simbel

We chose this tour based on the fact that it was short and covered the Great temple of Abu Simbel. Many other tours we look could not be as short and cover Abu Simbel so it fit our schedule perfectly. This tour starts in Luxor and ends in Aswan so let me clarify that if you are in Cairo or other cities you must find a way to get to Luxor either by train or plane. They help you with transportation which is a big plus. It takes the stress of the hagglers that surround you at the airport if you have something pre-arranged. Let me start by saying that our experience was excellent. Since I booked the tour, the agent Hazzan, was in contact with us every step of the way. Cairo transport from our hotel to the airport was covered by the company. Flew in from Cairo to Luxor where we were picked up and immediately given the tour to Karnack and Luxor temple. Then we went straight to the cruise. I am a regular working class guy who was looking for a nice trip in Egypt with my wife and this cruise line was by all means the best experience I have had. Impeccable, luxurious and with a very pleasant staff, clean, quiet, great buffet for breakfast, lunch and dinner (every day something different!!!) with a raffle and party at the end of the tour. Staff was very pleasant specially our waiter Wallid, who went beyond the call to make sure we were comfortable. They greet you with a nice glass of mango juice after every journey in the city. Abu Simbel was amazing as well as the temple if Isis on an island. Tour guides were very nice although we suffered from some miscommunication at times but it may be just my impression ( I wanted to know the costs for each site ahead of time). The Hot Air balloon ride did not take place due to some strange cases where the weather had caused problems and Egypt decided not to have them anymore. At least that is what we were explained. The agency was strait with us and refunded that part of our tour. We started our cruise a bit tired from being in Giza a few days earlier but the cruise revitalized us and we left quite happy having chosen this agency. Drivers were very friendly and always smiled and gave us tips on what to visit and what to do. We were transported to the airport on time and left hoping to return some day. Egypt is a country with striking faces, on one end the streets which may be a bit shocking to some, a culture that engrains a strong tradition, most depend on tourism to live so you have to keep an open mind

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
