Beautiful Dahabiya cruise. Recommended!
We had a fabulous holiday. We booked it directly through Tour Egypt Club and their organiser, Lily, was really helpful and responsive, both before the holiday and during it, staying in contact on whatsapp while we were in Egypt and making sure we had everything we needed. Our Dahabiya was called Turquoise and it was a really beautiful boat, nicely decorated, and up on deck was a really peaceful place. The bedrooms were good too. Comfortably beds and enough room, although it did get a bit warm at night. The food on board was amazing! And the staff were friendly and helpful but also unobtrusive. We were 16 passengers in total which was a nice number - enough for company but a small enough group to make things manageable whenever we disembarked to go to visit temples or tombs. Our tour guide was Mr Haggag who was very knowlegable and friendly. Thoroughly recommended. All in all it was great trip.

Superb Nile experience
Wasn't sure what to expect when we booked this, but to our delight found the rooms to be large, ensuite showers, brilliantly comfortable beds, spotlessly clean. Plus really attractively designed boat on 3 levels, plentiful space to relax and watch the Nile pass by. Also, super-friendly staff, excellent food, lots of music and dancing to add (uf you wanted to!). Just great all round and would totally recommend.

Cancellation without communication
Disclaimer: I didn't travel with them. I had booked a 4 day dahabiya cruise with them via viator, and paid in full. A few days later, It was canceled from their end without any communication/explanation. I went back and checked, and my dates were still available. Needless to say, I booked with someone else, rather than tolerate more unprofessional behaviour.

The Nil from a Dahabyia
We enjoyed the Tour with the Dahabyia "Karnak" so much! It was great, the boot was cosy and phantastic, I could also watch many birds, because the Dahabyia often passed close and silently the bank of the Nil or of an island. The crew was extremely qualified, friendly and we laughed a lot! The food was delicious and to my mind as a nutritionist varied and perfect. Our Guide Gamal was excellent and we learned a lot from him when we visited so many exciting and interesting places within this program of tempels, graves, villages, animal market and so on. It was a great pleasure though it became rather cold in the evenings due to late January. So all in all I can recommend the trip as well as our friendly and patient travel consultant Zahra.

Dahabiya Nile Cruise: Aswan to Luxor - 4 Days/3 Nights: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Aswan.
How much does Dahabiya Nile Cruise: Aswan to Luxor - 4 Days/3 Nights cost?
+
Prices start at $1500 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 Dahabiya Nile Cruise: Aswan to Luxor - 4 Days/3 Nights 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 Dahabiya Nile Cruise: Aswan to Luxor - 4 Days/3 Nights worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 35 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Aswan, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Dahabiya Nile Cruise: Aswan to Luxor - 4 Days/3 Nights?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 144 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Dahabiya Nile Cruise: Aswan to Luxor - 4 Days/3 Nights 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 Dahabiya Nile Cruise: Aswan to Luxor - 4 Days/3 Nights?
+
Around 12 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 Dahabiya Nile Cruise: Aswan to Luxor - 4 Days/3 Nights 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 4-Day 3-Night Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor&Abu Simbel+Balloon, 4-Day 3-Night Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor - Private Tour, 3 or 2 or 1 Nights Mighty Nile Felucca Adventure. 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.
