A perfect 4 nights Nile cruise
Our Nile River cruise in Egypt was an unforgettable experience, We truly enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere while cruising the Nile and visiting magnificent ancient temples.Our guide, Ahmed, was absolutely outstanding. He has deep knowledge of Egyptian history and explained everything in a clear. Because it was a private tour, he was able to tailor the explanations to our interests and answer all of our questions. Ahmed was also very kind, professional, and attentive, making sure that my husband and I felt comfortable throughout the entire trip.Our ship was Alexander The Great. The food on the Nile River cruise was excellent, with a wide variety of delicious dishes served every day. In addition, everyone we met on board was humble, warm, and genuinely kind, which made the entire journey even more pleasant and comfortable.Thanks to everyone we met, this Nile River cruise became a truly special and memorable experience. I highly recommend this tour.

Great experience
This was a great experience! We had very friendly experience on the boat and our tour guide Omar was phenomenal! He made every arrangement from the time we landed in Aswan to the day we flew back to Cairo. The sites and tours were amazing and Omar's knowledge of each site was so helpful. He made recommendations and suggested other possible activities, but we never felt pressured. Some we did, others we didnt. He helped us navigate the sellers on the street-which is really quite exhausting. He made sure we were always well taken care of. There is no way I would ever want to do any of these sites without a guide. Things to understand in general- tipping culture is a big thing in Egypt. At the end of the cruise it is suggested to tip the staff. This is not included in your fare and is collected by envelope in a drop box. That was fairly easy and didn't require us to carry cash on hand while on the boat (There are good recommendations on Google to help navigate how much to tip.) Every excursion will involve tipping anyone who helps you. Drivers, guides, baggage handlers, etc. "Security" guards at the sites will offer to take your picture or show you a special roped off area and then expect a tip. Every guide warned us about this. (You just need to decline their offer and walk away) Also note: you will need to pay to use restrooms wherever you go. It's not much (approx $0.50) but plan ahead. The amounts of tips are really not that high, but the overall volume became tiresome at the end of the week. Having said that, it was worth it to have everything arranged and ready for you. Overall, it was a great trip and great experience and I would recommend it to anyone considering travel to Egypt.

Perfect experience!
We booked a cruise on the Tamr Henna. The boat is absolutely incredible, with luxurious rooms, delicious food and incredible service.However the best part for me was the dedicated tour guide we had everyday for each excursion, Mido Sayed Eid. For my personal preference it was the perfect guide: very attentive in explaining the cruise program day by day, then providing info and orienting us inside temples like a true Egyptologist, then making sure we always had some solo free time to go around and take pictures. Highly reccomending the company, the cruise and the guide!

An Unforgettable Experience with the Best Guide in Egypt!
We booked a tour with Cleopatra Tours covering Aswan, Kom Ombo, and Luxor, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. Our tour guide, Mohamed Geno, was absolutely phenomenal—hands down the best guide we had during our entire time in Egypt.We covered a lot of ground, including the Unfinished Obelisk and the beautiful Philae Temple in Aswan, followed by a stop at Kom Ombo. In Luxor, we explored the massive Karnak and Luxor Temples, the Valley of the Kings, the Temple of Hatshepsut, and the Colossi of Memnon.What made the trip truly special was Mohamed. He doesn't just recite dates and facts; he has a unique way of explaining history through stories that make the ancient sites come alive. It made the long days of sightseeing incredibly engaging and easy to understand. If you are booking with Cleopatra Tours, I highly recommend asking for Mohamed Geno!

Amazing historic trip across Egypt
We just finished a lovely week long trip across Egypt organized end to end by the Nile Cruisers team.From the initial conversations with Sherouk to booking the entire trip & seeing the beautiful country - the entire experience has been effortless ! Special thanks to Hussein for pick up in Cairo and explaining us our itinerary. Our egyptologist guide Amr in Cairo was extremely knowledgeable and helped us understand Egyptian history in detail.We then took a flight to Aswan and we were greeted by the lovely Mido who very patiently took us and explained us all the sights & sounds across Aswan till Luxor. He was very detailed and made us understand the rich history of the ciuntry.We checked in to the Sonesta Star Goddess for our Nile cruise - it felt like our private cruise as the staff gave their best attention to us.If you are looking for a reliable travel company to organize your travels across Egypt, do not hesitate to get in touch with the Nile cruisers team.

Excellent Nile cruise tour
I would highly recommend a Nile cruise for someone visiting Egypt and looking to explore outside of the Cairo area. All of the sites were amazing to see. Our guide, Mido Sayed, was knowledgeable and helpful throughout the trip. He made this a really great experience. He even helped to return a backpack that I had accidentally left in the car on our last day! The crew of the ship were all excellent. They were so attentive to tough dietary restrictions (vegan and gluten free), and they all worked hard to make this a wonderful trip. I would highly recommend!

Great Cruise Option
We took a 4-night cruise from Luxor to Aswan with an Abu Simbel trip added on for an additional fee.THE TOURSherif Ahmed was a fantastic tour guide; he was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about Egyptology. We learned a lot with him. He also ensured we had a smooth trip logistically, juggling multiple different flight requirements within our group. We were able to see every sight we wanted, with a full day even before our 9 PM flight on the last day. THE BOATWe were on the MS Alma, which was extremely nice. The boat’s interiors looked very new, and it was kept spotlessly clean throughout the trip. The staff were very friendly and attentive. The food was mostly pretty good.
