Hubby and I have wanted to visit Egypt for ages but did not want to go as part of a large group. Found Egypt Best Vacations on Facebook and was impressed with the range of options available. We wanted to see as much of Egypt as possible and Egypt Best Vacations was great at helping us book the most suitable holiday for us at a reasonable price.
An awesome short 4 day trip for travelers wanting an authentic experience to explore ancient Egypt, with very informative and well known tour guides who were always helpful throughout the tour. Both Sara and Sami were great! Would recommend to anyone wanting to explore Egypt. A great experience!
Valley of Kings , Luxor Temple, Karnak Temple ,Felucca Ride in Aswan are very Good. Had wonderful time. The guide Mr.Essam Ali is Wonderful and Knowledgeable. He had taken very good care of us through our the trip at every place . We strongly recommend Mr.Essam Ali.
Great tour. Our guide Essam was excellent. He was very knowledgeable and articulated the tour well. Offering our group good advice on how to customize our tour based on our interests. He was sure to warn us on all potential scams aswell as unnecessary/non affiliated persons. He also went above by making our restaurant reservations for us.
We enjoyed our Egypt travels through Egypt Best Vacations. Essam is the best tour coordinator and guide one can find! I am so glad we found him because he made our trip memorable in so many ways! He was always able to make the tours fun by telling us stories of the past in engaging ways! He was always helpful and gave us honest guidance regarding all local experiences eg. How to behave with street vendors. You felt you could trust him and rely on him fully through the travel!
A luxury Nile river cruise is a premium sailing holiday between Luxor and Aswan aboard a 5-star ship, combining elegant cabins, fine dining, and personal service with guided visits to Egypt’s greatest temples. Instead of changing hotels and arranging transport, you unpack once and let the river carry you through ancient Egypt in comfort and style.
A luxury Nile cruise stands out through its 5-star ships, spacious elegant cabins, fine dining, attentive service, and refined onboard facilities such as a sun deck and pool. Compared with standard cruises, you enjoy higher-quality boats, well-managed groups, expert Egyptologist guides, and a smoother, more polished experience from start to finish.
Our luxury Nile cruises typically run from 4 to 8 days. A 4-day / 3-night cruise covers the key highlights between Luxor and Aswan, while 5 and 8-day options give a fuller, more relaxed journey with more time at each temple. We help you match the length to your schedule and travel style.
Our luxury Nile cruises sail the scenic stretch between Luxor and Aswan, in either direction. Along the way you visit Karnak Temple, Luxor Temple, and the Valley of the Kings, plus Edfu, Kom Ombo, and Philae Temple. Every visit is privately guided by an expert Egyptologist for a deeper, unhurried experience.
Our luxury Nile river cruises start from around $1,290 per person for a 4-day Aswan to Luxor sailing, with premium 5-star ships such as the MS Farah from about $2,000.
