- len0vap0 contributionsVoyage down the NileOur cruise down the Nile with Egypt Gift Tours was exceptional. The views from the deck and out the picture windows in our suites were breathtaking. But the best part of our trip was our guide. Hatem was amazing. His attention to detail and pure enjoyment in sharing his country's history with you makes this journey truely amazing. He brings with him years of knowledge, but in addition to this he is conversational, encouraging questions and therally enjoying answering and interacting with his guests. His attention to detail makes this excursion truely enjoyable and memorable.Written November 25, 2024

Our guide for the tours, Hatem was amazing. His knowledge and enthusiasm in sharing his country's vast and rich history with his guests truely adds richness to your journey. This is an experience you don't want to miss. I do not know if you can request a guide but if you can you will be more than happy with Hatem from Egypt Gift Tours.Written November 24, 2024
- DDeana0 contributionsThe best experience In EgyptThe reason why I picked this company is because they always communicated with me on WhatsApp. Everyone was really nice and helpful. I have never been on a cruise before. It was one fun thing after another.Written November 7, 2024
- tonyjM9755LJ0 contributionsJelley family Nile cruiseWe organised a family trip to Egypt through Heba from Nile Gift Tours. Heba made the process remarkably easy for us with excellent communications and clear answers for us, and gave us accurate information at all times. The 5 days, 4 nights cruise was a wonderful introduction to the history and sights of ancient Egypt from Luxor down to Aswan and then to Abu Simbel. We all had great cabins and the staff on the cruise boat were very friendly and helpful. The food was plentiful and our grandkids loved the desserts!! Our guide Hatem was with us the entire length of the cruise. He was friendly, kind and very knowledgeable. He spoke excellent English and was able to explain the history of the temples that we were visiting in a way that was understood by us all… (ages ranging from 7 to 75!!) We would highly recommend Heba from Egypt Gift Tours and the five days, four nights Nile cruise. The Luxor Balloon flight was a brilliant addition, not to be missed!! In all the Nile Cruise was a wonderful family adventure that we will all remember for a very long time.Written October 11, 2024
- CapePaterson0 contributionsExcellent Staff memorable experienceIt was an amazing experience made possible by the dedication of Hebe from Egypt Gift Tours. She answered all our queries before the trip- even when it was late at night Egypt time. She made sure that we got the best cabins and the best hot air balloon experience . From beginning to end she looked after us in a friendly and professional way. Hatem, our guide was excellent. He was knowledgeable and passionate about his work. He was very organised and made sure that we knew what we were doing each day. His explanations were interesting and he even made it fun for our grandchildren aged 9 & 7. Thank you Hebe and Hatem for making my 70 birthday celebration so memorable. I would highly recommend Egypt Gift Tours.Written October 11, 2024

- 509wfz0 contributionsInformative - historical ExperienceWe began our tour from the time of our pickup & both the driver & guide we're on time, sharp! Very cordial, accommodating and pleasant. The journey began at Medina Habu (Ramseus III) and it was just amazing. Mr.Hatem really took the sincere initiative to explain the details of the temple, especially when he understood how important it was to us. Then we to Medina El Deir and again it was an extraordinary experience. Wow - just in awe with the context of history and wonders of the ancient Egyptians!!! We took a break at an Alabaster House of goods - it was also a nice - fun experience because it allowed us to interact with the locals without having to be pressured into buying souvenirs. It was a Terrific 👍 bathroom/drink break. Our trip ended with the Ramseus II Temple and it was again Very historic and instrumental in knowing the facts... very very interesting and valuable for the purpose of our trip. And once again Mr.Hatem took extra care & effort in making sure he guided us with the historical facts. That was it and we also appreciated the smiles and warmth of our driver Mr.Mahmoud - Very gracious and accommodating. If we were able to do it again, we would do so. Furthermore, we appreciated the professional support and follow up from the back office, ensuring that our guide was handled properly. Thanks a whole Bunch. Viva Egypt 🙏Written April 24, 2024
- ecea7090 contributionsGreat tour, great staff!Had a wonderful time in this route Luxor —> Aswan 4N/5D. The program is full but not overwhelming so you get plenty of time to rest and still see everything without having to rush. Mohamed el Khady was an amazing guide, explained everything in a fun engaging way and left us enough time to explore the sites on our own. He has great photography skills too! Heba, who’s handling the whatsapp was absolutely great and one of the main reasons why I picked this tour. She helped me build my itinerary, everything was handled smoothly, she regularly checked up on me and made the trip safe for a solo traveller. 100% recommended.Written April 15, 2024
- Customer_from_Hell0 contributionsAmazing and unforgettable experience with Hatem IbrahimWe spent 2 unforgettable days being guided by Hatem! He was super efficient, knowledgeable, kind, open and extremely attentive and generous with his time. We wholeheartedly recommend Hatem for his professionalism, knowledge and care.Written March 27, 2024
- 44knutl0 contributionsWedding anniversary, old friends tripThank you Hebba and Ofi for making this trip so special to us. We enjoyed the whole experience very much and Ofi was super helpful, charming and great. He took very well care of us all and our new friend Marikko. The communication with Hebba ordering and organizing the trip was smooth and frictionless. The itinerary was well planned with a good balance between time on the boat and sights to visit. The hot air ballon and visit to The Kings Valley were highlights. Only thing that could be communicated better was the fact that the boat charged cash for all purchases the last day, so keep that in mind.Written March 25, 2024
- 648becg0 contributionsFantastic holiday!We've had a great time in Egypt with 'Here Egypt Tours'. Bassant was fantastic as our agent and kept us advised of arrangements every step of the way. Everyone who handled our stay has been great. We had a fabulous guide, Mohamed Shakur for the entirety of the cruise portion of the trip. He was great, really knowledgeable, good humoured and interesting. He put lots of special touches in to our trip as well, like making sure we had breakfast to go on early trips etc. Made sure we knew when meal times were (all the notices were in French) etc. We cannot thank Mohamed enough for looking after us so well 😊 The boat crew on Serenity were also fantastic. Really attentive and hard working. I'm not sure they slept much 😂 I would highly recommend this trip and Mohamed as your guide.Written February 26, 2024
- pql20190 contributionsBrilliant holiday and amazing trip thanks to Mohamed ShakourAn amazing trip made all the more brilliant thanks to our guide Mohamed Shakour! We did this trip as a birthday present for my wife and could not recommend it any higher. The boat was amazing, the food was delicious and the crew couldn’t be more helpful. Best of all was our tour guide Mohamed Shakour! He was brilliant! Knowledgeable, funny, friendly and went above and beyond for us. Every trip he took us to key locations and explained what we would see, showed us around then gave us free time to explore ourselves. He took us to a few places that weren’t included and made each trip so enjoyable. Best of all though, he arranged for the boat crew to surprise my wife with a birthday cake on the ship! I’m not sure if you can ask for a specific guide but if you can, ask for Mohamed. We was fantastic.Written February 25, 2024

Definitely a pleasant and hassle free experience with Rocky Family! Rocky was a really really great tour guide. Rocky had tons of knowledge to share about Egypt’s history and has a creative way of explaining the myths and stories relevant to your tour site. Rocky also provides guidance in tipping and bargaining (when buying souvenirs). You can trust Rocky’s tour and food suggestions most especially around Luxor.
Rocky also helped in arranging wake up calls all through out which kept us within schedule. He was well known in most sites like Nubian Village and Luxor which will make the trip more enjoyable.
He will also show you some dance moves when you are cruising along the Nile River. Awesome Trip with Rocky Family!
He is Dangerous in keeping time so do inform him if you need more time to take pictures.

What a wonderful experience this has been! ❤️
From start to finish, Heba took good care of my trip. I was traveling solo and decided last minute to do the Nile cruise. Heba accommodated our request and ensured I got everything I needed for my trip.
I left Hurghada on a bus and she arranged my pickup at the Luxor bus station the same day. She was in constant communication with me the entire trip and made sure everything is in perfect order each time she tried to reach me. She even ensured I had my ticket back to Cairo after my tour with them ends.
Our guide, Mohamed, was beyond excellent! Very knowledgeable and made our tours truly delightful. He was very cheerful, fun and friendly the entire time! I recommend going with him if you can.
I met a wonderful couple during the tour who happens to be doing the same tours that I was, which made the trip even more wonderful!
Overall, my trip was beyond spectacular! Thank you Egypt Gift Tours!!!

For 4 days in the Nile River cruise we were not just a family- we were RUCKY FAMILY!
Our dedicated guide, Rucky, gave an in-depth story of the temples we visited. He made it easy to understand through storry telling and using us as characters. Jist howp we had more time for pictures since the places were so nice!
Food could have been better in the cruise ship. Fish was often times undercooked and raw. Restaursnt staff particulary the managwr should be more respectful to its guest.
Aside from the food and manager, overall, it was an escellent experience with Rucky!

My family and I had a nice experience on our 3-day cruise from Aswan to Luxor. Firstly, I want to comment on the agency, Egypt Gift Tours...I was VERY impressed with Heba, who was SO attentive to my needs and so prompt in answering all of my questions. She made our experience SO much easier and I am forever grateful for her. She has an amazing level of English, which also helped. I could not say enough good things about her!
My family and I are vegan, so she helped organize and communicate our needs to the kitchen so that we had good vegan options at all our meals. She also organized all details for my surprise birthday that my boyfriend and her organized (without my knowing) which was a nice surprise. She helped him organize the food, cake, birthday gift, and balloons and decorations being done to my room when I was away. It was a nice detail that I will never forget.
As far as the cruise goes, it was nice. We were on the boat Princess Sarah, which was nice. It was a bit older than I was expecting, but many of the boats that do Nile cruises are this way. Each room had a mini-fridge and a window that could be opened to see the Nile river and feel the breeze when we were moving (no sitting balcony). The food on the boat was very good. If you are vegetarian or vegan they can help accommodate you very well if you ask, otherwise, you will still find options, just as many as you might like. Coffee and tea are available on the boat, but you have to pay extra, which I thought was quite surprising. The upstairs had a pool and sitting area, which is also nice.
The activities and tours were nice and all in English. I highly recommend doing the hot air balloon with them in Luxor. It was def one of the highlights of our trip! The trip to Abu Simbel was nice, but it was a VERY long drive for a 90-minute stay there. They give you a packed breakfast for that long day in the van, which was fruit, bread, jam, and some juice.
Overall, the trip was nice and I recommend working with Egypt Gift Tours to organize it. Seeing the Nile River and doing a cruise is an experience that you should have while in Egypt!

We had done an entire package of Egypt from Heba and Egypt gift tours. Heba was able to create personalized tour that included this Nile cruise. Rocky was our tour guide and Egyptologist. He engaged all by telling stories with us being the characters. It allowed good engagement from all. We had a group of 12 so got to know each other as well.
This cruise a whirlwind of Egypt.
Amazing history, temples and human ingenuity on display. This is going to want you to come back for more detailed tour of Luxor, Aswan and other sites.
Our balloon ride was canceled due to poor weather (which can happen). We were notified the night before and given option to refund money or take a tour of Luxor at night )we chose that) and it was great. Taking the streets in horse carriage during Ramadan was amazing look at culture and peek at life in Luxor (East Bank).
Overall amazing experience that leaves us with wanting to come back for more.

Dear travelers, I can't put down in words how astonishing Egypt is. This cruise made our visit exceptional, the accommodations are comfortable and clean. All the itinerary is very well organized and you have enough time to visit and appreciate all the archeological sites.
But the highlight of the trip was our guide Mostafa Abdo, he made our experience absolutely exceptional. Other people in the cruise were jealous of our guide. He became our friend and we enjoyed his company very much. I highly recommende you ask for him as your guide.
Food is amazing! 😁🌴✨

The cruise was a great experience and the highlight of our trip to Egypt. We were allowed to check in early at the ship and start our tours right at 10:00am on day one. We were fortunate to have Mohamed El Khady as our guide. He was not only knowledgeable and patient, but very fun to be around. The visits to the temples were well organized and enough time to wonder around to explore and take pictures was given in each site. The food on board is delicious, varied and abundant!! We weren’t lucky enough to do the hot air balloon on the scheduled morning because of the weather conditions, but will have the opportunity to go on a different day over our stay in Luxor. It is an amazing experience, I would definitely do it again and recommend it to anyone who wants to explore the Aswan-Luxor area.

From the beginning to the end of my Nile Cruise tour I was impressed how knowledgable,funny,accomodating and friendly all the tour guides and cruise ship employees were.
Shout out to Heba, our tour booking manager too.
Heba never missed a beat. In fact she went above and beyond to make sure we were up-to-date about our programme and also regularly followed up to make sure we we were having a good time.
And so, I got to see all the ancient Egyptian sites I had/hadn't seen before and much more!
I highly recommend you look them up if you want to book a Nile Cruise in Egypt.

I took a Nile cruise with my 13 year old son in Feb 2022. From the moment I contacted Egypt Gift Tour, Heba has been great. She was very professional and accommodating. She replied my messages promptly and always helpful. That was a last min booking. Heba found us a great ship and provided us with a stress free pre boarding experience. The cruise itself was 10 out of 10. The ship was recently renovated. The lobby was grand and elegantly decorated. The room was nice too. All the activities both on and off the ship were seamlessly ran. By that time, we are 8 months into our world travel gap year and had lived in Cairo for some time, I had never had any tourist expense as great as that Nile cruise. They KNOW how to run that cruise!
The sightseeing along the Nile River was amazing!!! All the magnificent ancient temples and royal tombs!! Hot air balloon ride over the Nile River the Valley of the Kings!! OMG - all so impressive! A must see in one’s life time.
I liked the experience so much that when my fiend and her family visited Egypt in the Summer of 2023, I bought the cruise for them as a gift. I contacted Heba, my trusted agent of courses. She again did an amazing job. She even upgraded my fiends to a better ship since I’m a retuned customer. My fiends and her family had a wonderful once in a life time experience thanks to Egypt Gift Tour and Heba.
Because of the great past experiences, I’m contracting Heba for the third time to help me with an even bigger group of more than 10 people. I’m sure she will do a great job to give everyone an outstanding experience.
I highly recommend Egypt Gift Tour and Heba. I would rate more than 5 stars if I could.

My fiends and her family had a wonderful once in a life time experience thanks to Egypt Gift Tour and Heba.
Because of the great past experiences, I’m contracting Heba for the third time to help me with an even bigger group of more than 10 people. I’m sure she will do a great job to give everyone an outstanding experience.
I highly recommend Egypt Gift Tour and Heba. I would rate more than 5 stars if I could.
