Love Egypt Tours is the Absolute Best.
Love Egypt Tours is the absolute best tour company I have ever worked with. They made every aspect of my and my family's travels in Egypt so seamless, smooth, worry-free and absolutely spectacular. The Nile River Cruise is a must but use Love Egypt because they make the tours and so many other extra bespoke art, cultural and shopping experiences that allow you fully immerse yourself in all the best things Egypt has to offer. Dr. Eedo, our Egyptologist guide is essentially part of our family now. He taught us so much about Egyptian history (his fund of knowledge is vast) and he helped us capture so many beautiful moments of our tours with his exceptional photography skills. He made historical events come alive for our 11 year old and 14 year old sons--making their experience both enlightening and engaging at the same time. Mr. Hassany, the owner of Love Egypt yours is a rare gem! He ensured we were picked up and dropped off from and to the airport. He ended up also helping us organize every other airport run and transportation services in other parts of Egypt all after our cruise was done--all for a fraction of the cost our hotels were trying to get us to pay. He would check on us with every driver we were set up with and every flight to ensure that all plans were executed perfectly. He made us feel like true VIPs. I would recommend Love Egypt Tours without reservation for all your travel experiences in Egypt. Best money I ever spent!
Response from the operator: Greetings.Thank you for your review.its our pleasure to show you the amazing sites in Egypt and please know that you're welcome to come back anytime,

Great Experience With Amazing Guide Ahmed
Ahmed is the ideal travel companion for anyone who wants to explore the world. He went above and beyond in his duties as a guide when he accompanied me and my elderly parents on our trip. He was extremely considerate, patient and knowledgeable, making our trip a pleasant experience. His tours of Aswan, Karnak Temples, Edfu, and other sites were exceptional. Ahmed's expertise in hieroglyphs was remarkable, and his descriptions of them were incredibly detailed, bringing to life stories that had been untold for millennia. He was also considerate enough to take our photos and stand in lines for us, ensuring that we had a stress-free and enjoyable experience. In summary, We highly recommend Ahmed as a tour guide. He is an excellent guide, a patient companion, and a knowledgeable scholar. If you want to have an unforgettable experience while traveling, then look no further than Love Egypt Tours!

Beyond Expectations
A massive thank you to Love Egypt Tours for planning our holiday, tours and pickups and taking all the hassles out of the planning and making it an awesome trip to remember. Special mention to Hany Agamy our guide who went above and beyond to ensure that all of our needs were met. We cannot imagine a better guide, with his Egyptology background and his passion we were taken on an amazing journey into the past and started to grasp many aspects of the ancient Egyptians. Hany was not only passionate about Egyptology but he was also passionate about his guests and we enjoyed his personality, his sense of humor and the many discussions we had with him in the evenings. He has almost become like family to us and we are so privileged to have had him as a guide. Thanks also to Hass for planning the trip, to fit in with our brief. Everything went like clockwork and we highly recommend Love Egypt Tours

5 Day Nile Cruise from Cairo to Luxor and Aswan: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Giza.
How much does 5 Day Nile Cruise from Cairo to Luxor and Aswan cost?
+
Prices start at $324 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Giza usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 5 Day Nile Cruise from Cairo to Luxor and Aswan take?
+
Plan for about 120 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 Giza is not rushed.
Is 5 Day Nile Cruise from Cairo to Luxor and Aswan worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 16 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Giza, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 5 Day Nile Cruise from Cairo to Luxor and Aswan?
+
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 5 Day Nile Cruise from Cairo to Luxor and Aswan suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 120-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 5 Day Nile Cruise from Cairo to Luxor and Aswan?
+
Around 6 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 Giza 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 Giza and add a light layer if any part of the 120-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 5 Day Nile Cruise from Cairo to Luxor and Aswan 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 Giza 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 Giza?
+
On Outty we rank every Giza experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Pyramids Sphinx Camel ATV Bike Shopping and Nile Dinner Cruise, Cairo 8 Hour Private Tour of Pyramids & Grand Egyptian Museum, Pyramids Sphinx and Grand Egyptian Museum Nile Felucca or Bazaar. 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 Giza?
+
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 Giza?
+
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.
