          Day 1Aswan: Private Nile Boat Cruise and Botanical Garden Visit Your River Nile adventure begins with pickup from your Aswan hotel in the late afternoon. Head down towards the river then hop on board your private boat for the evening and set sail along the infamous waters of the Nile. Arrive at the first stop of the tour, the Botanical Gardens on Lord Kitchener Island, home to an array of plants that were imported from all over the wold in the 1800s. Enjoy some free time to stroll around the gardens, admiring the majestic palm trees that line the walkways including the Sabal Palm and Phonic Palm as well as Ficus trees and other beautiful bougainvillea trees. Head back to the boat and continue along the Nile, watching the sunset and the sky change color. Sail around Elephantine Island, a tiny island home to ancient ruins and temples, then glide past the Mausoleum of Aga Khan built in the style of the Fatimid tombs in Cairo.

          If you're in Aswan then maybe visit. but there are other more impressive sites further down the Nile valley
          Other temples are the same or more interesting: Karnak, Valley of the Kings, Hatchepsut, Ko Ombo... they are all somewhat similar. so the fact that Philae was moved a few hundred yards, does NOT make it special enough to be visited. The high dam may be a big deal for Egypt and the legacy of Nasser. but if you've ever been on a dam... any dam... this is not necessary to visit. It's just not that impressive and not that relevant.

          Happy happy 😊
          I stayed at Neverland but spend most of time at Alf Leila. Hotel was immaculate clean. Staff and security is good! Photographers was absolutely amazing. They helped me and my family so much when we lost an iPad at the beach they translated and arranged for collections as it had been handed in! Wide range of food. Shops museum and water parks ! Will definitely return !

          Loukas❤️
          Loukas was a great guide: funny, smiling all the time, he tried to talk our languages and have conversations with us all the time! Mohamed, the Fellucca’s driver was the same… explain us a lot of things about the Nile and let us drive his boat! Good value for the money!

          PEACEFUL
          The driver was on time at our hotel, Lucas is very friendly and it is easy to have a conversación with him because he speaks well English and he is open minded. On the faluca the people works Hard and you feel very safe.

          Please give customers reliable information. Not deformation nor decoration (LOL)
          -Luxor tour guide was maybe okay but selfish. -Tour operator managed my trip too poorly to write here. (They have no ability to plan things further than 3 seconds later? Sometimes they lie. Disgusting.) -Ship and historical sites were ok. -You will know why there are so many nameless/brandless tour operators prevailing. New ones emerge after customers rate low.

          POOR
          The Nile Treasure cruise ship is an old dilapidated ship. We had a 4 night cruise and it was disappointing. The rooms were small, the ship outside decks were filthy. Our feet were black after walking on the deck even while wearing flip flops. The food was sub par. Our travel company E******* booked us on this ship. I would strongly suggest not going on a cruise with this ship. Very disappointing.

          The journey was enjoyable. Staff on board were friendly and food was delicious. Tour guides were professional. Mirna in the support team was with me throughout the journey. She was kind and helpful.
