Great experience with tour guide Hany!
We had a great experience with our tour guide Hany! He was very helpful and knowledgeable when we went on the cruise and visited various historical sites. In our cruise we had private transportation and private tours, separate from the large groups. We definitely recommend Hany as a tour guide, he was a great English speaking guide and ensured we had a fun and educational vacation!

Mahmoud the Great!
We had the most amazing experience with Egypt Knight Tours. Everything was organised to perfection, we were kept totally up to date with what was happening when, what to expect and given the most amazing insights into all the tours. The food on the ship was great, with a good variety. The ship sailing was super calm and the views breathtaking. I would highly recommend using Egypt Knight Tours for any of your trips or tours while in Egypt! Thank you MAHMOUD for looking after us and making our first trip to Egypt memorable! Sonya and Don

Memorable Egypt tour
Egypt Knight Tours helped me with Airport Meet and Greet, Airport pickup and drop, Cairo tour, and the 4 day Aswan to Luxor Nile Cruise. Airport Meet and Greet - Their representative Hisham was extremely efficient. He helped me to get through the visa process in something like 10 minutes. Also helped me with the forex, sim card, and baggage collection. And all that at 3 am in the morning with a smile. Cairo Tour - I really appreciate the wonderful Cairo Tour experience given by the guide Yousuf. Not only very knowledgeable about the must see places of Cairo, he also helped us with some essential shopping. Lunch provided were very filling and tasty. And these were mainly Egyptian food! Nile Cruise - Tour guide Magdi was amazing. Very knowledgeable and patient, plus a fantastic photographer. The cruise staff were also amazing. Super friendly and caring. Both the guides for Cairo and the Nile Cruise took extremely good care of us. We felt like we had a good friend in an unknown country. During all the outings we were provided with adequate water. That was extremely important specially when it was so hot. There were lots of things to digest in a short 6 day Egypt tour we had, but thanks to the entire team of Egypt Knights, the guides, drivers, and airport representative, things were very nice, safe, and comfortable. Thank you Egypt Knight Tours for making our Egypt tour so memorable.

Best Trip of My Life – 4D/3N Nile Cruise with Egypt Knights
We booked a 4-day, 3-night Nile cruise with Egypt Knights after doing a lot of research and reading numerous reviews — and we’re so glad we chose them! From start to finish, the service was exceptional. Each day was very well planned and covered everything mentioned in the tour itinerary. Our guide, Magdy, was incredibly knowledgeable about the history and archaeology of each site we visited. He brought every place to life with his insights. We also decided to do a hot air balloon ride at the last minute, and Magdy went above and beyond to arrange the best possible experience for us — truly unforgettable! The ship itself was great value for the price. The food was absolutely amazing — so tasty, abundant, and with an unbelievable variety each day. This was hands down the best trip of my life. Thank you, Egypt Knights, for making it so special!

Why this scores 78
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Abusimbel Aswan to Luxor 4 days Nile cruise: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Aswan.
How much does Abusimbel Aswan to Luxor 4 days Nile cruise cost?
+
Prices start at $420 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 Abusimbel Aswan to Luxor 4 days Nile cruise 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 Abusimbel Aswan to Luxor 4 days Nile cruise worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 78 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 36 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 Abusimbel Aswan to Luxor 4 days Nile cruise?
+
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 Abusimbel Aswan to Luxor 4 days Nile cruise 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 Abusimbel Aswan to Luxor 4 days Nile cruise?
+
Around 13 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 Abusimbel Aswan to Luxor 4 days Nile cruise 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 happens to Abusimbel Aswan to Luxor 4 days Nile cruise if the weather is bad?
+
It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Aswan. Standard cancellation terms apply: free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start.
What do travelers say about Abusimbel Aswan to Luxor 4 days Nile cruise?
+
Across 36 reviews averaging 4.8 out of 5, recurring themes include the guide, knowledge and storytelling, food and drink. Travelers single out the guide as the reason the experience works.
