Wouldn’t do a river cruise again

It was very nice but so many boats at a port meant you had to walk through other boats to get off. While docked you would have a boat either side of you so you had no view of the river. It also got hot because the boats blocked out any river breeze. Also if you sat on deck all you could smell is fumes from the other boats around you. If docking in the early hours you would be woken up with the boats bumping and men shouting instructions sometimes right outside your window. Pleased I did it but don’t think I’d do another river cruise because of these issues.

Would highly recommend Marsa Alam Tours

Marsa Alam Tours booked our 7 days in Egypt and 5 in Jordan tour. We did Cairo, 3-day Nile cruise from Aswan to Luxor, and overnight at Bahariya Oasis. They booked our domestic flights, our flight from Cairo to Amman and hotels. It was a personalized custom tour for our family and it was flawless. From the airport pickup to drop-off, everything was well taken care of. The drivers & guides every day were friendly, informative and helpful. Wael Ewada who booked our package stayed in touch with me throughout the trip to make sure things went well. Their airport rep Wael Aziz helped us with delayed baggage and with my daughter who was coming 2 days later. Would highly recommend them.

Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your fantastic review. We are thrilled to hear that you had a flawless and personalized experience with Marsa Alam Tours. It’s great to know that you enjoyed your time in Egypt and Jordan, and that everything from the airport pickup to the drivers and guides went smoothly. We will definitely pass along your kind words to Wael Ewada and Wael Aziz. We are grateful for your recommendation and look forward to welcoming you again in the future. Best regards, Rana

Recommended! Great experience!

Booked our 9-day private trip to Cairo with Nile Cruise from the Netherlands. I was a bit apprehensive - would it all be right? Well, it did. From the moment we arrived at customs (visa was ready!), it felt good. First 2 nights in Cairo with pyramids etc and a visit to the old city, then by plane to Luxor and there on the boat (4 nights) for the Nile cruise. We had booked all excursions (including the hot air balloon!) in advance, and that too went smoothly. We traveled with our 11-year-old grandson. That's why the Dutch-speaking guide was a plus! On the penultimate day we heard that our return flight to Cairo had been delayed by more than 4 hours. Contacted us and Wael made sure we could go on the earlier flight - great! Messages were responded to in no time - very nice! Price/quality was excellent! All in all, highly recommended!

Response from the operator: Beste 183marleenv, Bedankt voor uw bericht en uw booking 9-daagse privé reis Caïro met Nijlcruise geboekt Met Marsa Alam Tours. we zijn blij dat u van uw rondreis genoten hebt. Met vriendelijke groeten Ahmed khall

Private 7-day Egypt Highlights Tour with Nile River Cruise: questions travelers ask

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

How much does Private 7-day Egypt Highlights Tour with Nile River Cruise cost?

+

Prices start at €150 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cairo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does Private 7-day Egypt Highlights Tour with Nile River Cruise take?

+

Plan for about 168 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 Cairo is not rushed.

Is Private 7-day Egypt Highlights Tour with Nile River Cruise worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cairo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Private 7-day Egypt Highlights Tour with Nile River 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 Private 7-day Egypt Highlights Tour with Nile River Cruise suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 1. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 168-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Private 7-day Egypt Highlights Tour with Nile River Cruise?

+

Around 1 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 Cairo 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 Cairo and add a light layer if any part of the 168-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Private 7-day Egypt Highlights Tour with Nile River 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 Cairo 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 Cairo?

+

On Outty we rank every Cairo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include All-in-One Giza Tour, inside Pyramid, sphinx, Camel ride & lunch, VIP Private Giza Pyramids, Sphinx Tour –Inside the Pyramids&More, Best of Cairo Private Giza Pyramids, Sphinx and Grand Museum Tour. 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 Cairo?

+

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 Cairo?

+

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 Private 7-day Egypt Highlights Tour with Nile River Cruise?

+

Included: 3 nights in Cairo based on Bed and Breakfast; 3 night Nile Cruise between Luxor and Aswan based on full board; Entrance fees; Private transfer; and Lunch. Not included: Tipping; and Any extra. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
