Was perfect to discover part of Egypt, the best part was our Tour Guides, Adel, Sammy and our guide in Abu Simbel were fantastic!!!! they know a lot, they were super helpful, gave us tips and took care of us all the time. I mega recommend them. The cruise was good, specially the food and the people at the Restaurant, they made the experience good. But when your time finishes, they want to charge you extra for everything, we payed extra ours for a room and didnt allow us to go for lunch, if we wanted lunch we had to pay extra, even if we payed for the extra time. Some guys from the staff insisted in helping us with our luggage at the end, even if we said no, that we didnt needed the help, they did it, and when we gave them the tip, they returned and got mad with us because they had a fixed rate for the tips, they wanted at least $300 Egyptian or nothing. After that even the driver that took us to the airport was kind of mad at us. Once your time or money is over good bye smiles for you

The ferry cruise was very lovely. The pictures don’t do it justice. It had a swimming pool, which was so welcoming from the hot Egyptian sun. We had two guides, who were very knowledgable and very welcoming. Our last guide, Samy, had 30 years experience and you can see that he is very knowledgable about all things Egypt. He’s from Aswan and on one of the days he organised a Nubian village tour for those that wanted to see more of Aswan and to get more knowledge on all things Nubian culture. He was so good to us at the end of the trip where he made sure that everyone was safely transported to their next stays. Highly recommend!

I love the itinerary of the cruise trip, stopping over all the important cities, get to see sunrise and sunset over the Nile, watching locals farming and children playing water on the Nile, and have the chance to visit so many amazing temples with our guide, Besho. He’s so knowledgeable and always take good care of all of us in the group and telling us all wonderful history of Egypt every time. The cruise facilities are not bad and the hot meals are soooo yummy. It’s a pity they didn’t include wifi as part of the package which is a shame. Otherwise it’s a perfect Nile cruise. The staff on the cruise ships are always smiley.

The staff on the cruise were really polite & friendly. The all inc package was good value, The meals were really tasty with a wide variety of options to choose from. As vegetarians you worry that there won’t be any or enough options available but that wasn’t the case, at each meal we had at least 3 options to choose from. Our boat MS Zeina wasn’t the newest but the rooms, dining area and sundeck felt like they had been refurbished fairly recently. Our Egyptology guide Adel was incredibly passionate & knowledgeable about his country’s history, we really enjoyed our time with him both during the site visits as well as in the time we spent sailing down River. Adel’s explanations created a vision of how the ancient Egyptians lived. The optional trip with Adel to the Nubian village on the felucca was also really fantastic, a must do! The less good bits, dated bathrooms, drink prices and soundproofing of the rooms windows. Overall, Would I book again, definitely!

The overall Nile experience was great ! Covers most of the key attractions and historical sites. Our guide Esshak was quite helpful in sorting out things fast and explaining all the key historical sites. It Would have been better If GYG had mentioned that from day 3 the cruise would be docked and wouldnt sail. However Overall great experience !

We had a wonderful experience during this cruise ! All the people were really kind and helpefull (Special mention to the nice person who always made cute towel animals) We had two awesome guides ( one in Abu Simbel and one in Assouan). In Assouan, Omar gave some really interesting informations and was happy to answer all of our questions ! He was also really helpefull for the organisation of our last day.

Our boat (the Marquise) was really nice and the food was excellent. All excursions were perfectly timed and organized (you've got enough time to visit the temples despite what some could say), our guide Sam was very caring and took care of everything. The only downside are the drinks not included in the price, that can be a bit expensive on the boat. Overall I definitely recommend it!

The Egyptologist guide George is very patient and explains very well, he answered all the doubts and was concerned about everyone from start to finish. It was an unforgettable experience

We had a really good experience. George was very helpful and nice. The journey would have been different without him, I recommend him 100%

We loved the different tours we went on and were given the best explanation by our guide George. He loved to answer our questions and was very helpful. The cruise boat Magic has beautiful rooms and a nice sundeck. We had nothing to complain. The buffet could have been better eventhough it included different kinds of dishes. The only thing that did not add up to our expectations was the last animation show. But overall we highly recommend taking this cruise.
