Definitely recommended!
We booked the Aswan-Luxor cruise directly with the Holidays in Egypt agency. Everything was smooth, we got answers to all our questions before booking and the transactions were very clear. We are a couple travelling by ourselves but we felt safe everywhere. Ms Madeline Endrawis was so kind and assisted us throughout our journey. Everything was perfectly organized, even though there were a lot of people involved, like guides and drivers in each stop. (An e-sim or Egyptian Sim card and number that you can get upon arriving will definitely help you, you can get one at any Voda phone or Orange store for ~4 $, with plenty of minutes and data for your trip). The cruise is stunning, you will enjoy the Nile views and the monuments, the food on the ship is great (with many vegan options too) and everyone is an experienced professional. At certain places like Aswan or Edfu, your guides will recommend local shops for souvenirs. You can kindly decline if you are not interested or visit and buy something. Be prepared for some tipping for drivers and guides as it is the local habit. Having some small banknotes ready before your visits at the monuments will make you feel more comfortable. Special thanks to our Luxor guide, Mr Ahmed, a joyous person that loves his work and explained in great detail all places we visited. We expected a short and fast round on the monuments but we got a thorough visit for many hours that left us amazed. Overall, fantastic experience and a really professional operator!
Response from the operator: Dear our Valued customer thank you very much for taking the time in submitting your review with Holiday in Egypt Travels . we have been so pleased that you enjoyed your trip with us . we will be looking forward to welcoming you again soon Thanks Best Regards Madeline

Egypt Holiday
Trip was fantastic. Madeline organised it for me, she was great. Nile cruise is a must in Egypt. All excursions were organised, driver and the guides were great. They contacted me well in advance to inform me the pick up time and the place. Guides were very knowledgeable and answered any questions. Staff on the cruise were amazing, especially in the dinner hall, always ready to help and the food was fantastic. Madeline also organised Pyramids and Cairo day trips for me, they were also fantastic. Many thanks Madeline, greatly appreciated your help. Jay

Why this scores 59
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
3 Nights 5* Deluxe Nile Cruise Aswan to Luxor with Abu Simbel: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Aswan.
How much does 3 Nights 5* Deluxe Nile Cruise Aswan to Luxor with Abu Simbel cost?
+
Prices start at $1,050 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Aswan usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 3 Nights 5* Deluxe Nile Cruise Aswan to Luxor with Abu Simbel take?
+
Plan for about 96 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Aswan is not rushed.
Is 3 Nights 5* Deluxe Nile Cruise Aswan to Luxor with Abu Simbel worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Aswan, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 3 Nights 5* Deluxe Nile Cruise Aswan to Luxor with Abu Simbel?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 3 Nights 5* Deluxe Nile Cruise Aswan to Luxor with Abu Simbel suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 96-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 3 Nights 5* Deluxe Nile Cruise Aswan to Luxor with Abu Simbel?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Aswan can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Aswan and add a light layer if any part of the 96-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 3 Nights 5* Deluxe Nile Cruise Aswan to Luxor with Abu Simbel start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Aswan within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Aswan?
+
On Outty we rank every Aswan experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include 3 or 2 or 1 Nights Mighty Nile Felucca Adventure, 4-Day 3-Night Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor - Private Tour, 4-Day 3-Night Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor&Abu Simbel+Balloon. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Aswan?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Aswan?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
