Overall good tour but bitter taste towards the end
My husband and I visited Luxor in April for 3 days and had Noha as our guide for valley of the kings, Hatshepsut temple and dendera temple . Overall I would say the tour was good, she was very kind, had such a wealth of knowledge and you could really tell she was passionate about the history. The drivers were also great with clean AC cars. However there were a few things that put us off. First, she kept asking for full payment multiple times throughout the 2 days. We did give her half at the end of day 1 but even that was after a little bit of back and forth. We understand that it is probably for their own security that they will be paid but I feel like we also need some security that our tour goes the way we agreed on in the beginning. She kept saying it's "just how things are done here" but that's not true as we had booked other tour guides/adventures in Luxor and Cairo that same trip and no one else asked for payment until the very end. Despite this we were honestly having a great time but the end really left a sour taste for us. At the end of our tour when we were about to leave dendera temple she asked us to write a review for her, which we had no problem doing originally. but she insisted we write it before we leave and drive back to the hotel. It honestly felt very forced as we were told we have to screenshot it and send it to her before we can post it. She even hovered over my husband and told him to pick 5 stars and write something like "wonderful guide". We kept saying we would do it as we drive back but she really pushed to have it done before we go. Which makes me question any review I see about her now. All in all, we had a good time but if we were to do it again we would consider booking another tour guide unless she reflects on these few things. Especially comparing it to the wonderful guide we had in Cairo who we have nothing but amazing things to say about.
Response from the operator: Dear Gurlene, We sure this review should be somewhere else. We haven't organize any tour for you.

EXCELLENT Tour with Noha
This is an incredible tour with Noha! She was very, very knowledgeable and shared so many interesting details about the sites. She also has great printouts of things that are on the ceilings to help you see the detail better. Her English is excellent and I couldn’t have asked for a better guide for my time in Egypt!

4-Day Aswan Nile Cruise: Abu Simbel, Balloon, Tickets, Multi lang: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Aswan.
How much does 4-Day Aswan Nile Cruise: Abu Simbel, Balloon, Tickets, Multi lang cost?
+
Prices start at $595 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-Day Aswan Nile Cruise: Abu Simbel, Balloon, Tickets, Multi lang 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-Day Aswan Nile Cruise: Abu Simbel, Balloon, Tickets, Multi lang worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 15 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-Day Aswan Nile Cruise: Abu Simbel, Balloon, Tickets, Multi lang?
+
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-Day Aswan Nile Cruise: Abu Simbel, Balloon, Tickets, Multi lang 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-Day Aswan Nile Cruise: Abu Simbel, Balloon, Tickets, Multi lang?
+
Around 5 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-Day Aswan Nile Cruise: Abu Simbel, Balloon, Tickets, Multi lang 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.
