From Cairo 4-day Nile Cruise To Aswan By Flights& Hot Air Balloon

This is review for our guide today: Gabriel. He picked us up on time at Luxor airport and started the Egypt history class right away. He's a true egyptologist who provide us with wealth of information to make these ancient ruins feel alive. He and our driver Abdulrachman also helped us to buy soft drink from local shop so we were not charged with tourist price.

Marwa Fatafeat Elsoker, we had an amazing tour with the best guide ever. Thank you Marwa and Ahmad

We are a UK pensioner couple on our first package trip to the historical glories of Egypt, eight days combining Nile cruise and trips to Cairo, Luxor and Aswan. Remon Nagy Shaker, proudly Luxor born and bred, was our good natured driver and guide. Inormation, tips and advice tumbled out of him during our time among sites such as the Karnak, Hatshep and Luxor Temples, embracing wider Egypt and personal experience. We can warmly recommend Remon.

Mahmoud Essa was really handy and fun. He illustrated us all the temple in a very nice way, telling things many people don’t know. He also gives you some free time after the visit to do some photos or whatever you want. He’s very chatty and calm, it was a really nice tour. Hope to see him again

All the guides were excellent, particularly Demiane who took us to the Valley of the Kings and other temples around Luxor. She also arranged a pleasant lunch with a beautiful view across the Nile. The cruise ship was excellent with clean and well-appointed rooms. Our only complaint was with Nice tours that was disappointing and detracted from our holiday. Communication was poor; we were unable to contact the tour company via email, WhatsApp or phone. We would not book a tour with them again and regret the inconvenience, stress and worry it caused us.

We had the best time with Mina Safwat in Luxor! He was so patient and so knowledgeable in the history of all the temples. We learned so much in just one day and are so fortunate we had him as our guide!

The tour around Luxor (the temples) and valley of the kings with the guide Demi was the best tour I have ever been on. Her knowledge was simply phenomenal. I cannot recommend her or the tour itself highly enough

Amazing experience. The tour was well organised. Bibo and Neba were very helpful and we had great time with them

It was a great experience! Our main guide Bibo made everything very easy for us. He explained all de antiquities in different Temples (museums) in a great way! Bibo thank you for everything! Furthermore in the Nile cruise the crew was very friendly and helpfull and the food delicious!

We had a great experience with Mohamed as our tour guide. He took us to Karnak and Luxor temple. He was very knowledgeable and charismatic. I felt like I was coming down with a cold and he went out of his way to take us to a pharmacy to get some medication. He made us laugh and made us feel safe with him. He explained a lot about the history and also about the culture. He even took us to Mc Donald’s. We would highly recommend him if you’re thinking of booking this tour. Thanks Chelsey & Shontelle.

It was a nice experience, just I would like More Time in the ancients monuments and less in shops. The guide Hamdy was very kindly

Great language and knowladge. Very polite and friendly. We were having great time. Everything ok. Nice visit to temples.

The best thing, after amazing places and amazing balloons fly, was our guide Remon ♥️! Super friendly and professional!

Manal was our guide in Luxor on our last day of the 3-night Nile cruise. She was able to provide us with ample information on each of the sights we had to visit. It was impressive she was able to squeeze the main highlights of the city but still gave us the time to breathe. She arrived on time and was able to get us to the airport on perfect timing.

Our visit to Luxor was heightened by our wonderful guide Abanob. He was very knowledgeable of the sites we visited. He provided us with information, was very attentive and ensured we had a good time.

The cruise on Nile is memorable, the tour guide Andro is very nice and helpful, he has rich knowledge of Egyptian history which makes every visit of temple more interesting. He also organized a birthday dinner for my friend during the cruise. Thanks!

We visited Karnak temple, Luxor temple, Hatshepsut temple, Valley of the Kings, Edfu temple, Kom Ombo temple, Abu Simbel. The cruise ship was comfort, into the cruise included breakfast, lunch and dinner just perfect, the flights from Cairo to Luxor and from Aswan to Cairo like international flights, all guides were professional. The Luxor guide Mina Safwat told us about temples and give suggestions in Valley of the Kings because the ticket allows to visit up to three tombs in complex.

We had a fantastic day with Abdo exploring the wonders of Luxor! He guided us with great professionalism through the Valley of the Kings, the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, and the magnificent Karnak Temple. He is knowledgeable, kind, and always ready to answer any questions. He speaks excellent Italian (as well as English), which made the experience even more enjoyable and accessible. We felt comfortable right away and learned so much thanks to his clear and passionate explanations. Highly recommended!

Everything was perfectly organized, from the domestic flight to the warm welcome on site. The Nile cruise was comfortable and well-managed, with delicious meals and very polite, attentive staff. Abu Simbel, Aswan, and visits to iconic temples like Karnak, Edfu, and Philae were truly memorable. The guides were friendly and knowledgeable. The hot air balloon ride at sunrise was a beautiful way to end the trip. The only small downside: the pace was sometimes quite intense due to the schedule and activities. Highly recommended!

We recently returned from a tour of Egypt that included a 4-day Nile cruise and visits to all the major sights. While the program itself was well-designed and good value for money, there were a few disappointments that affected our overall experience. Pros: 1. The itinerary was excellent — 4 days cruising the Nile, flights to and from Cairo included, and visits to Egypt’s most iconic landmarks. 2. The cruise ship was great — beautiful views from the cabin and a rooftop pool added a lot to the experience. 3. The food on the cruise was delicious, and the staff were genuinely warm and welcoming. 4. Overall, the tour was very reasonably priced. Cons: 1. The guide, Gabriel, was knowledgeable but unfortunately quite dull in his delivery. He focused heavily on dates and names, rather than engaging storytelling, and didn’t seem to sense what the group was actually interested in. We often had too little time to enjoy the sites themselves. 2. Communication before the tour was poor. We had to chase the tour manager for basic details, which were often shared just hours before activities began. 3. Tipping culture in Egypt is understandable, but it became excessive. The guide mentioned tips every day, and the same was true on the cruise. It felt more like an obligation than a gesture of appreciation — especially considering the overall cost of the tour. In summary, the destination and itinerary were amazing, but the organization and guidance left a lot to be desired. With better communication and a more engaging guide, this could have been a perfect trip.

What an amazing experience. I’ve learned so much about this country, their beliefs, their culture and history. I must say, it helps to have a great guide and Bola guided me through all the Luxor temples with ease and imparted so much knowledge of these wonderful moments, he is very knowledgeable and eager to share and answer any questions you might have. I highly recommend him as a guide. Thank you guys for the great work.

We visited Luxor. The City has many places to visit. Our guide Scaran knows perfectly the history of egipcians. Thanks!

This has been a fastastic way to see so much of Eqypt. The cruise was comfortable and Andro made us feel safe in all areas. We saw the Abu Simbel and Kim Ombo temples. The crocodile museum and more. He stayed on the ship with us which made it easier for us as we had some health issues. The Hot Air balloon ride was my personal favorite.

The company is always available to respond any questions you might have, which makes you feel secure and taken care. The cruise is beautiful, it has great decoration, it is super clean and the room was more than we expected. Our tour guide was Gabriel, who knows everything there is know about Egypt - inside out. We did the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut Temple and Luxor Temple. Many of his explanations allowed to better understand what we were seeing or we were about to see. But I also would like to highlight his ability to be empathetic and very very carismatic. He is able to provide high level explanations, but he can also be very specific about any aspect or detail You would ask about. Great mix. We did not know what to expect ... But, we are taking unique experiences with us, we are very satisfied with the company and we are happy we acquired this package.

Great tour and experienced guides. In Luxor my tour guide was Abdo. I had other tour guides in Edfu, Kom Ombo and Aswan/Abu Simber but canät remmenber their names Especially the Valley of the Kings and Air Ballooning in Luxor were great experiences as well as Abu Simbel temple south from Aswan. I upgraded myself to a Deluxe cruise ship which was a good option (based what the other tourists told me about the basic ship). My tours were with a small groups (three of us in Luxor and seven in Aswan/Abu Simbel). So all in all, this 4-day part of my 6-day tour was great and I recommend it to everyone.

My husband booked this trip as a surprise for my 50th birthday and I was over the moon. Though it started off a little shaky and felt disorganised at first (there was an issue with our first internal flight that meant we needed to board a different boat and our tour schedule was mixed up to start with - the platform provider GetYourGuide sorted this all out for us and we were very happy with their service). After this and a lost day, we managed to catch up on everything and it all just got better and better. The tours of Abu Simbel, Kom Ombo, Edfu and all of Luxor were just incredible. Our guides Mohammed (Kom Ombo), Hafiz (Edfu), and Sara Essam (Luxor) were all so knowledgeable and informative and we felt we really were able to get the feel for all the sights and history. Our tour of the Luxor temples with Sara were particularly good because they were private (all the others were shared group which was fine too) and Sara and our driver Bacharius were top notch. If you get a chance to go to Luxor with this company, ask for Sara !!!!

Mares fatafeat elsoker was excellent amazing guide very helpful and so kind and excellent tour with her recommendation of her daughter of htspsut I hope to see her again

The tour of Cairo was very fantastic. But the boat cruise that so-called five stars was terrible. No WiFi, the room was also not clean. And the most poor thing was no information from Nice tour! I was waiting my guide for three hours at Cairo airport because of no information. Tour of Aswan was also very poor. Almost 60 peoole one group,only one guide! Someone booked ticket,the other one not. But guide couldn't control it. The tours were always late and often we were no lunch. Finally two tours canceled. I 've never experienced such terrible tours. On the other hand, some guides were professional , kind and well-trained. I wish the company would be more considerate towards their guests.

Magic Hassan was helpful, friendly and gave lots of information. The tour is family friendly and Magic kept us safe Thank you very much.

I want to thank you to the agency, all the staff that were part of my journey (including tour guides, drivers) and operators, Ereen and Nour, for helping me organize this wonderful trip! They were very attentive from the beginning, ensuring my trip was doing great! There was not issues or inconvenience. Everything went as it was planned. This trip wouldn’t be possible without the well logistics from the agency. They sort our flights, transfers, visits, acommodations, etc. Since I was travelling alone, this multi-day trip was everything I needed it, to be accompanied by kind people, feel safe. Most of the meals are included as well. And the Nile Cruise is a MUST! A trip very completed! I truly recommend booking with them. Yoy won’t regret it. Thank yoy for making this trip so amazing! I’ll be come back next time with my boyfriend!

We took a balloon ride in the morning. After that, we met our guide Ahmed anwer, and he took us to the Valley of the Kings, the Temple of Hatshepsut and the Temple of Karnak. He was very kind and explained everything very clearly. I had some concerns about my luggage, but he solved them. We then boarded the cruise ship. It was a wonderful day.

Our 4 day cruise on the Nile was an extremely pleasant holiday. The vessel was wide and comfortable. Nice Tours even upgraded us to a Deluxe Cabin. The Tour Guides - Adam and Mary - were capable and professional and explained Ancient Egypt with ample details. Zeineb was great because she gave details on timely fashion and replied to our questions in a blink of an eye. The drivers from our hotel to Luxor and from Aswan to our hotel were safe conductors of comfortable cars and vans. Even the hot air balloon experience was amazing Thank youuuuuuu Nice Tours Staff

We booked a 4 days cruise with a lot of tour in Aswan, Kom Ombo, Edfu and Luxor. Great experience thanks also to Zeinab! She has been in contact with us all the time via WhatsApp and organized everything! She sent also a car to take back one of my friends to the hotel ‘cause he was sick! Very kind and helpful! All the tours were great! Yes, it was very very hot but it was worth it! Advised!

This trip is a must, Luxor temples and tombs are both beautiful and famous sites. The tour guide Marwa was both very friendly and knowledgeable able to read ancient Egyptian and give a good history of each venue. Though it was very hot going earlier made things a bit more bearable I wouldn’t advise to begin in the afternoon. Must See, Great and passionate guide.

Incredible! I recommend the Abu Simbel visit with AHMED ASHRF! He explained the history of Abu Simbel with patience and passion! Before the visit, I twisted my ankle and he went immediately call for golf car to get me to the site! Very compassionate and kind person! Thanks’ you so much Ahmed! Keep up the amazing work 🙏🏾 Alison Kan Solo traveler 😊 April 2024

Marina and Nice Tours Agency transformed our journey into an unforgettable adventure, with professionalism and dedication that exceeded all expectations. I higly recommand Marina for any trip in Egypt. See you soon again for another trip to Urghada , Gouna and eharam el Sheikh ;).

Amazing cruise ! Lots of beautiful landscapes to see, and good organization throughout the stay. Thanks to Nice Tours !

During my visit to Luxor, I had the opportunity to be in wonderful places, such as: Karnak Temple, Luxor Temple, Hatshepsut Temple and Valley of the Kings. As soon as my tour of the city began, I was lucky enough to meet Ahmed Anwer who was my tour guide. He very patiently explained to me the entire historical context in which the events took place and how the ancient Egyptians conceived of life from a secular and religious point of view. It was undoubtedly a great experience, many thanks to Ahmed and the entire Nice Tour team.

I really liked the stay in the cruise, it's too bad that sailing was delayed, but the trip was overall great, with guide and everything (Kaled Fouad). I really liked how the group formation was encouraged.

Amazing tour our tour guide Heba was really nice and really cought our full attantion and expland with passion the beauty of the ancient egyption history. After we went to a spice and essence shop where we where introduce ti the making of it. The driver Mostafa was very nice. Thank you so much!!

Well organised Nile cruise with stops to the most important attractions in Egypt. The cruise ship was in an excellent condition, our room was spacious and modern. Fnb staff were really attentive and the food was tasty. The swimming pool was small and we didn't use it. We had tour guides at every monument and private transfers to get there. Most of the tour guides were speaking English at an advanced level and explained the history of each monument. Our respect to Luxor's tour guide Shady, he really helped us understand the history of Luxor and was always there for us. I would like to personally thank Mohra for organising our trip. She was really helpful and providing information daily about our schedule and pick up / drop off times.

Satisfied with being able to visit tourist spots efficiently! I want to come again. The guides are also very knowledgeable.

everythinEverything FORCE greate andWe in JOY it Thing for everythingI can ' t say more about the wond for day Thank you for everything

We had an incredible 4-day Nile Cruise experience from Cairo to Aswan, and Zeinab's exceptional coordination and organization truly enhanced the journey. Her unwavering availability, day or night, ensured a smooth and enjoyable trip. Zeinab's dedication to customer service made the entire experience memorable.

We had a very pleasant trip full of history and activities. We wanted to highlight the role our amazing coordinator Zeinab played to make this trip a success. She was always here ready to answer all our questions and requests at any time of the day. We even had to call her once around 5 am because of an unexpected incident and she managed to find us a solution right away. We really appreciate her efforts during all the trip and we can only highly recommend her !

Nice tours exceeds our expectations! Our coordinator Zeinab did an excellent job. She took care of us from the time we flew in from Cairo until our return. She always checks up on us. Instructions and activities were explained clearly and on time. She usually message us the itineraries the night before. There was never any confusion on what we should do and where we are going. They can be conveniently reached through whatsapp and is always reachable. All the tours are coordinated. Shout out to our tour guide Ahmed Majid. He explained everything so clearly and we enjoyed listening to him as he discussed Egyptian history and culture. He interacted to all of us and is always open to questions. The cruise ship (Magic II/Serenity cruises) is clean and nice. All the crew are very polite and helpful. Just be prepared to have smaller bills as Tipping everywhere in Egypt is a culture. Not a lot of food choices on Main Courses but overall everything was nice. I am happy because my friends enjoyed this trip and told me that it was the best Trip they had so far and Nice tours made that happened for us. Thank you Nice Tours for giving us a wonderful experience.

I joined this Cairo-Luxor-Aswan Nile river cruise tour alone ( boat name : Victoria ) on 18-21, Nov. 2023. Obviously it was amazing and fantastic experience for me, but mostly the reason why I recommend this tour is their incredible hospitality, especially Mr. Zeinab who is my travel coordinator of Nice Tours. First day, they pick me up at the hotel in Giza at 5am, driver sent me Whatsapp message almost 1 hr before and came to me 15min. earlier. I never expect it even worry if they were late... Once my travel start, Zeinab sent me message from time to time, day and night even in early morning to check if I had any problem, trouble. This was done from 1st to the last moment of my tour perfectly. I'm from Japan who is so proud about Japanese hospitality for tourist in Japan, but never imagine how I could get even better hospitality in Egyptian tour, really surprised and felt comfortable to get them. Also, my tour guide in Luxor ( Mr. Ahmed anwer ) was fantastic, he show me a lot of professional skill , knowledge which made my visit of Luxor Temple, Karnak Temple more meaningful, also his friendly attitude and open mind, smile made me relaxed. This was my first trip to Egypt and I really appreciated this tour company and people, highly recommendable to any tourist.

Our guide Samar Helmy was amazing. She showed us the main attractions from Luxor and she answered every question we had. She also helped us see the true beauty of Luxor. We absolutely recommend the tours with Samar Helmy.

We liked the organisation of the whole trip. Zenaib was the perfect planner for us. We can’t say anything bad about it. If we had to say something that could be improved that would be about the cruise and its schedule that sometimes feels that could be better in order to expend more time in the atractions.
