Recommend tour
Generally is a very good tour and arranged. Tour guide and drivers are friendly, and provided detailed information on the sites. But wish could have more free time to explore.

King Mina is the BEST OF THE BEST
I was very happy with the Tour, especially with MINA. Mina is very knowledgeable and he kept me engaged throughout his presentation. Very professional, He actually raises the Bar in terms of a guide.

Just do it
The experience was amazing, the cruise is comfortable, the food is delicious, the people are friendly, the balloon is really magic and our guide “king Mina” is fantastic, he’s the best guide of Egypt!

Aswan to Luxor Cruise
This was our first time on a Nile Cruise. We could not have chosen a better company and guide - King Mina. Everything was great. The days were packed with interesting visits to the main sites. The balloon ride was breathtaking. King Mina could not have been more accommodating to the groups needs. We felt safe, well looked after and could not have asked for more. We would highly recommend King Mina for his knowledge and patience.

Croisière sympathique
La croisière a été sympa dans l'ensemble. L'agence a été réactive tout le long. Le bateau est moderne et confortable, la nourriture acceptable et Le personnel aux petits soins. Mes recommandations aux futurs voyageurs et de bien lire ce qui est inclus dans le prix, le guide nous a avait fait payer les transferts en bateau et en calèche alors que c'était inclus, l'agence lui a demandé de nous rembourser dès que nous nous étions plaint. Aussi, on vous amènera dans des magasins de souvenirs, épices, pierres et autre, n'achetez rien ! Nous avions acheté du safran et finalement c'était des tiges colorés. Nous avions aussi acheté un petit obélisque censé être en pierre mais ce dernier n'a même pas résiste au voyage, il était en plâtre... Les souvenirs dans ces magasins sont 3 à 4 fois plus chers que dans le bazar du Caire. Enfin, si le vol en montgolfière n'a pas lieu 1 cause de la météo, pensez à demander le remboursement sur le site, il n'est pas automatique. Le guide nous avait demandé une grosse somme pour les tips, notre groupe a refusé et nous avons chacun décidé de combien donner ou ne pas donner du tout.

Amazing experience
We had an amazing trip. Mina the Egyptologist was great. He has a lot of knowledge and made sure the trips are Hassel free. The cruise was also very comfortable and clean.

Boat Tour is a must when visiting Egypt.
Doing a boat tour down the nile is the best way to see ancient Egypt. We had wonderful days touring the temples and tombs, led by Mina a extensively knowledgeable and friendly tour guide. The ship’s staff went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. Booking a trip through Viator doesn’t specifically dictate which boat you are on, so photos are irrelevant. Though the physical boat we were on, the Queen Isis, was not near the ‘5-star’ level we expected, the service on-board and the friendliness of the staff could not have been better.

Excellent service & very knowledgeable guide.
Exceptional 4 day cruise. Cruise ran down stream and allowed for faster travel times. Be prepared for early mornings 430 to 530 am, but the early starts are worth it to see all the sites with a more accelerated schedule. A longer cruise still stops at the same places but offers a more relaxed timeline for seniors or families with young children. Mina, our tour guide, is currently completing his PHD in the ancient Egyptian field, and was very knowledgeable. He was very detailed with his overview of each temple, and kept a running story going throughout the trip, allowing us to connect the dots of Egyptian mythology and architecture. Be sure to ask lots of questions! In addition to the listed attractions, Mina arranged for stops at local, genuine family owned shops; an Egyptian spice shop and alabaster factory. Each stop had a detailed presentation on how they make their products, and offer a great buying experience where you are sure you are buying authentic products, unlike the bazaars. Be prepared to walk through several bazaars that sell inauthentic product at each temple. Mina encouraged us not to engage with these merchants to avoid any hassle. Also be prepared to pay 5-10 USD at each temple for entry. Although traveling on an older boat (Queen ISIS) with less amenities, the exceptional service from the boat staff could not have been beat. The GM spoke personally with guests about any concerns. The food was good for the most part, with certain Egyptian dishes that were very good. The hot air balloon ride is absolutely worth it. The Top Level Balloons staff, captain, and ground crews ran a very professional and safe operation. You will get a very impressive view of the Nile during sunrise, the agricultural areas along the Nile, and most importantly the temple with a mountain backdrop. On the last day you check out very early and don’t receive lunch on the boat. Instead Mina arranged lunch for our small tour group at an authentic restaurant in the town of Luxor. All in all, an excellent trip and the best way to see the important sites along the Nile.
