A great tour with an amazing guide, Very informative knowledgeable and friendly. Definitely worth a visit. Highly recommend

Samy was a first class independent tour guide, so informative and a really lovely character. He has lived in the High Dam area all his life so is therefore extremely knowledgeable.

I thought the high dam may be one to pass, but Samy really amazed my group with ALL of the details and kept us engaged. It was fascinating, not to be missed. Then Philea Temple - how beautiful! We had booked Samy the previous day, so trusted him as our guide once again. He couldn't have done more. Michael was very professional and kept in touch: this is imperative so you have full details of pick-up etc beforehand and I trusted his choices. I felt safe and they over-delivered.

My wife and I made the reservation for a 4 day, 3 night Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor thru Bonvoy Tours. Lucky for us, it worked out the our tour was arranged by Egypt Tours. Michael, the owner, took really good care of us. He explained the options of which ships we had to choose from, helped us to rearrange our transfer to Hurghada after the cruise and gave precise explanations about our Ancient Egyptian tours and questions. We definitely would book with him again.

Michael, the trip organizer and guide for some of the days was wonderfully informative without boring lectures. We learned so much while having fun. This trip helped to dispel myths of history, the Egyptian government, and mostly the people. We found warm, humorous and accepted people everywhere. On another note, there were a couple of days when i wasn’t feeling well and Michael rearranged experiences to fit our needs. No waiting for others as you do in large group tours. Finally, he arranged our 3 night cruise on the Dolphin ( after giving us some options). The ship was old and not a luxury liner but it was clean, fun and met our needs without breaking the bank. If you always wanted to visit this ancient land, i encourage you to do it now.

Hany is a very good driver and very friendly. He took us to local places for food and grocery and we paid local people price and he even bought us sugarcane juice! Would recommend!

My husband and I booked this tour after a fantastic tour with the same company to Abu Simbel. We had been hesitant to spend the money on a cruise since we had read horror reviews from other companies and didn't want to be stuck on a boat that was unclean, shabby, or stressful. However, the cruise turned out to be the best part of our trip!!! Our ship was older, but well maintained and very clean. The staff were so kind- especially the kitchen staff, who made the expense of the trip more than worth it by their sheer kindness and good nature. The cruise provided buffet style meals and I had expected mediocre, mass produced food, or meat heavy fare that was unsuitable for my husband who is a vegetarian- but I was so wrong! The food was incredible (carnivore and vegetarian friendly) and the staff made sure to point out the special dishes on the menu- and even remembered the things we had enjoyed from previous meals- so that they could make suggestions of what else we should try. We are now obsessed with Egyptian cuisine! Our cruise took us from Aswan to Luxor and we made stop offs to Kom Ombo and Edfu where 2 knowledgeable and hilarious guides took us through the 2 temples. We also spent a good amount of our time on the top deck of the ship, reading and sitting in the sun while the beauty of the Nile unfolded infront of us. It was as if we had been transported back in time. When we arrived in Luxor, they arranged for us to take a hot air balloon at sunrise over the West Bank, then a trip to the valley of the Kings to see the tombs, lunch, then another trip to see Karnak and Luxor temples. It was a full day! Our guide for the day was "King" Mina who is an Egyptologist PHD. He had us laughing and marvelling at the ancient wonders, and gave the general opinions of the archaelogy zeitgeist, but also his own opinions based on his dissertation work. Needless to say, we loved hearing about this archeological discourse! He also treated us to falafel which was the best we have had in Egypt thus far. 🤤 I really appreciated this since I have hypoglycemia and my blood sugar was crashing after such an early morning. The only bad thing I have to say about this cruise is that the wifi was terrible and cost extra; I ended up just using my regular celluar data. Overall, this company took excellent care of us. We always felt safe and looked after, plus they took all the hassle out of touring. We didn't have to plan a thing! In short, if you're debating whether to book a cruise or not- book this one!

Thanks to our driver Hany (who drove us for the trip to Abu Simbel) who contacted the company to book for us the tour, we managed to visit the temple with our guide Aida. She was so nice to us, she knew everything about the temple and and answered all of our questions ( and they were a lot). Strongly recommend!

Michael is a fantastic and enthusiastic guide. We booked a second tour thru a Egypt est travel to see the Nubian village as we were so impressed with him and his knowledge of Egypt. His English is flawless (he is an ex English teacher).

It was an absolute joy to spend a few hours with michael. We visited the high dam, Philea temple, and Nubian village. Not only is michael a flexible and friendly person, his knowledge of Egyptian history is off the charts. He is an encyclopedia. Awesome man and awesome tour. Definitely recommend.

Excellent service and excellent tour guide. Micheal was our tour guide and his English was fantastic. He was also very funny and incredibly knowledgeable about Egyptian and Nubian history. We wished we could have changed all our future tours that were already booked to him. He also kept both my teenage boys highly engaged with his history knowledge.

We had such a great time. Everythings was good, especially the kindness of our guide Mickael ! He was always ready to help and answer our questions. Highly recommand

The cruise was peaceful and relaxing, with beautiful scenery as we cruise down river nile. Pros- our room was clean, staff was friendly and helpful. The food served was a mixed of local delights and international cuisines. The visit to the temples were well organized by our guide, Michael who always coordinated and put our interests first. He had all the historical information and described everything to us about the sites. Michael was very helpful and this trip wouldn’t have been possible without him. Cons- We booked in well advance and paid for upper deck room in cruise but we had to wait a lot for check in and got lower deck room because of miscommunication between tour agency and cruise staff. There is practice of giving tip for every small thing in Egypt so even we had already paid for all inclusive cruise trip, we ended up paying a lot to drivers, cruise staff, porters and for washrooms as well in historical places. Overall, this river cruise is a highlight of our Egypt trip and I would definitely recommend doing this cruise to my family and friends.

I loved everything about the trip, the temples, the tombs, cruising along Nile river but what made it really special was the tourguide- Mike- his knowledge, care for his clients and attention to detail is top-notch! Highly recommended!

The best part of being with an experienced guide was not wasting time, all the attractions were very well explained and always on time, for me, who like punctuality, it was perfect, our guide, Michael, also took care of our transfer at the end of the tour to the airport, we didn't have to worry about anything at all, we just said our demands, and he always organized everything, great guide, great person, super recommendable.
