          Egypt 2024
          If you ever in Egypt don’t forget to book your tours and transportation with Merna Moheb, she is simple exceptional and will do anything to make your stay more pleasant from beginning to end! She will answer all your question at 24/7. I made the biggest mistake by booking my land trip with an agent in Los Angeles and his services suck big time, I had an emergency and needed his assurance and his answer was “do it yourself” which I did and had to pay a lot of mom money out of my packet because he will not help! Merna got to be my best option a truly angel from God! Thank you Merna from the bottom of my heart ♥️

          Ups and downs
          The organiser Mirna was very efficient and the tours all started at the agreed time and covered everything expected and this is what l have based the 5 star review, the standard of the boat was another matter and l would encourage everyone if possible to investigate the standard of the river boat, they all have 5 star rating but it doesn't say which decade they gained the award

          Really amazing trip
          Trip was amazing! Mirna, representative of the operator took care all the things for the cruise from Luxor to Aswan, from ship accommodation, pickup and excursions to Edfu, Kom Ombo, Abu Simbel and Aswan.

          Very good organized cruise!
          The cruise was very nice, the food was very good, the staff were friendly, the organizer - mirna organized very well so the time asking if I am ok the sites were impressive, the guides were ok but b not that good, what I didn't like is the fact that I had to pay the water(I could understand the drinks) not that it was expensive because it wasn't but the principle... They picked me up when they said, Overall for what I paid it is 100 % worth it

          4 day cruise Aswan-Luxor
          The boat and the food were nice and the guides were great! Mirna, from the tour operator, was always available to answer all our questions. The only thing was the lack of information about the boat stops. But overall we had a great time!

          Nice trip
          Trip is long. Guide was very informative, spoke English and German. He allowed time for pictures. Lots to see on one trip. Reasonable price. I would recommend.

          Great value but not enough time in the temples
          The boat was very nice, the rooms were clean and the buffet was good and had a variety of food. The employees were always friendly. The main reason we don't give a 5 star review is because the visits to the temples were too short and rushed by the guide. He would speak very fast in an English not so well mastered and kept asking us to hurry saying we would have free time to visit the temple and take pictures after. But he would only give us 10 minutes to do so...then we would return on the boat and wait several hours before departure, so giving us more time would be possible. For the price we paid, we are happy with the itinerary and the boat value. Would recommend but make sure to ask your guide to take more time. We cross half the planet to see the temples and we are rushed to visit in 30 minutes including the tour guide.

          Disappointed the pickup never arrived.
          I was really looking forward to this trip but the pickup never arrived. And I waited till 10.30 in the hotel reception just incase there was a small delay. So I lost a good day out. So bad. I want a refund.

          Nice day
          Had a very nice day. We were not in a hotel, but we could arrange with the local party to be picked up near our apartment. The ride in the bus is quite long, but definitely worth it! Luxor is beautiful and our English guide could tell a lot about the temples and the history of Egypt. This trip is definitely recommended!
