    Magnificent Cruise!!!!!!!!!1

    This is an absolute must cruise. Everything was perfect!!!!!!! Our cruise guide, who was basically almost a private tour guide was spectacular. He did everything and anything we wanted and made sure that we were always safe and protected etc. The cruise boat was perfect. The food on the boat was good!!! You can arrange a cruise such as this for 10 times the price and probably not do better as a cruise / tour of the region!!!!!!!! Well well worth the tour!!!!!!!

    Disappointed

    Working staff are not professional and are always asking for tips, and the ticket price is not as described 47 USD, actually charged 80USD one person…Big Lie

    Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your feedback. We sincerely apologize for any confusion and inconvenience you experienced during your trip. To clarify, the entrance fees for the sites you visited are set by the Egyptian government, and the total cost of 3,935 EGP you mentioned is accurate, equating to around $81.13 USD at current exchange rates. Additionally, we work hard to ensure transparency, and it seems there may have been a misunderstanding regarding the quoted price, which included both the entrance fees and other associated costs, like transportation and guiding services. Aswan High Dam = 200 EGP. Temple of Philae = 450 EGP. Temple of Kom Ombo = 360 EGP. Temple of Horus = 450 EGP. Luxor Temple = 450 EGP. Colossi of Memnon = Free Valley of the Kings = 600 EGP. Temple of Hatshepsut = 360 EGP. Temple of Karnak = 450 EGP. Abu Simbel Temple = 615 EGP. Regarding your concern about our staff, we take professionalism very seriously and will address this matter to ensure that our travelers always have a smooth and enjoyable experience without any discomfort. We truly appreciate your feedback and will work on improving our services moving forward. Please feel free to reach out directly if you have further concerns—we’d be happy to assist.

    4 Days 3Nights Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor Abu Simble Balloon: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Aswan.

    How much does 4 Days 3Nights Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor Abu Simble Balloon cost?

    +

    Prices start at $102 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 4 Days 3Nights Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor Abu Simble Balloon 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 4 Days 3Nights Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor Abu Simble Balloon worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.7/5 across 6 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 4 Days 3Nights Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor Abu Simble Balloon?

    +

    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 4 Days 3Nights Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor Abu Simble Balloon 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 4 Days 3Nights Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor Abu Simble Balloon?

    +

    Around 2 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 4 Days 3Nights Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor Abu Simble Balloon 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.

    What is included in 4 Days 3Nights Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor Abu Simble Balloon?

    +

    Included: Lunch; Dinner; Breakfast; Entrance Fees to all the mentioned sightseeing; and Transport by air-conditioned minivan Round-trip.

    +

    What languages is 4 Days 3Nights Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor Abu Simble Balloon offered in?

    +

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for 4 Days 3Nights Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor Abu Simble Balloon?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is 4 Days 3Nights Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor Abu Simble Balloon wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +
