My boyfriend and I went on the 3 night/4 days Nile cruise from Sharm El Sheikh and had a great time. We got picked up early from our hotel in Sharm El Sheikh and driven down to Luxor where we saw Karnak and Luxor temples and boarded our cruise. We were weary that the cruise ship might not be as nice as we hoped (this can be a bit of a trend in Egypt when the price is good) but we were wrong – it was much better! Great big boat with lovely rooms and lounge areas, great food at the buffet and a nice big roof deck with a lovely little pool. Boat was fantastic! Our personal tour guide Mohammad was also excellent, he spoke great English and was very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful at every turn and made our trip unforgettable.
I visited Egypt in December. I got in touch with trips in egypt from London (found them from a google search) and found them very forthcoming in assisting with organising my trip nile cruise. I visited 2 cities – Aswan and Luxor and the good thing is that they helped manage planning for all sightseeing.
