It was the best experience you see a lot of beautiful things and everything was taken care of. We had the best guide Ahmed Sony. He knows so much information, makes funny jokes and comfort you as well. The driver Mine was very nice and brought us savely to all the places. We had a lovely trip, thank you so much!

I really enjoyed discovering Egypt and the cruise overall was a memorable experience. The activities, especially the hot air balloon, were amazing and I truly recommend them. The service staff onboard were kind and attentive, which I appreciated a lot. However, the cruise itself could have been cleaner – I found a bug in my room, and the food unfortunately upset my stomach. Communication with Nice Tour was not always smooth, but when I had an issue it was resolved fairly quickly. In the end, despite a few downsides, the overall experience was unique and beautiful, and I would still recommend it to others who want to enjoy the Nile and explore Egypt.

The Tour went really well. Nice Tours took good care of us. Everything was coordinated well. Nice Tour coordinator Zeinab is easy to reach and she gave us all the information in a timely manner. They are also always checking up on us. They are easy to contact. Shout out to our tour guide Ahmed Majid who is very good in explaining the sites History. The cruise ship was also a very nice experience, everyone was polite and really accommodating. This Tour is brillant! I think this is the best way to see Egypt.
