I was supposed to cruise with Alhambra, they put me in Queen Isis old dirty uncomfortable boat , small room sagging bed and left over food and only 11 people dinning at a time!

Luxor

Amy_M, Jan 2023
Had a wonderful visiting luxor with an amazing tour guide, Hamdy. Best experience. Aswan was beautiful, but wished the tour guide was more talkative and friendly. Ge was distracted by his phone.

Response from Host, Mar 2024

Booking2Egypt arrangement for Nile Cruise Trip

HatsueA3, Jan 2020
Because of my daughter's wish, we decided to go to Egypt. I chose this 5 Days 4 Nights Nile Cruise From Cairo By flight arranged by Booking2Egypt. Through Guide Ahmed received us at Cairo Airport, and he guided us until Aswan. My daughter wanted to visit " Medinet Habu " and this company kindly arranged this without extra charge. We should choose quite many optional tour, and almost of them, we participated. In Luxor, we enjoyed Horse carriage Ride, Sound & Light Show at Karnak Temple, in Aswan, we visited Nubian Village, etc,,,etc,,,,, . Through Guide Ahmed and we became good friends each other. And finally, my daughter's with became true to visit Medinet Habu Temple. We really like it. We strongly recommend to join this Typical Nile Cruise Trip. Cruise attendants were also friendly. Food is also OK. Many people worry about Egypt public safety, but we could done without any problem. We booked Cairo Sightseeing with Booking2Egypt agency, too. I will write my review on their site. Thank you, Guide Ahmed & Mr. Hussein ( company owner) , See you then, until next visit !!
