So happy I chose this cruise! It was amazing time and saw so many amazing places and temples. From booking with Heba to our tour guide Mohamed el khady. Mohamed was very nice, informative and pays attention to your needs and what you want to do. Excellent experience!

Finding Egypt Gift Tours made all the difference in our planning to visit Egypt. We were getting frustrated by too many Nile Boat Cruise choices and all sorts of mixed reviews. We almost gave up. But we finally contacted EGT and a woman named Heba Haggag responded right away! She gave us good information and some sane advice. She didn’t oversell and in fact, helped us save money. We booked the tour and felt like we had a helpful and responsive contact the entire time. The tour itself was great. The tours really are similar, so you take what you get (we didn’t know our boat until the day of), but what can make the difference is the guide. Ours was Ahmed and he was a veteran. He made sure we were at the right places and the right time and shared his extensive knowledge as we went along. The food on the M/S Nile Marquis was good. Nothing outstanding, but plentiful. Beer and wine were available (although we bought some wine of our own at Duty Free). We had been told to try and book an upper floor room - so we asked for that. But, thanks too Heba, we were upgraded to a beautiful Suite facing the bow of the boat with our own little deck. I don’t know how you get that room - but it made a great deal of difference in our attitude and comfort level :) And again, the boats are similar - no sense getting boat envy. Ours was fine and most of the time you are on land.

I took a Nile cruise with my 13 year old son in Feb 2022. From the moment I contacted Egypt Gift Tour, Heba has been great. She was very professional and accommodating. She replied my messages promptly and always helpful. That was a last min booking. Heba found us a great ship and provided us with a stress free pre boarding experience. The cruise itself was 10 out of 10. The ship was recently renovated. The lobby was grand and elegantly decorated. The room was nice too. All the activities both on and off the ship were seamlessly ran. By that time, we are 8 months into our world travel gap year and had lived in Cairo for some time, I had never had any tourist expense as great as that Nile cruise. They KNOW how to run that cruise!
The sightseeing along the Nile River was amazing!!! All the magnificent ancient temples and royal tombs!! Hot air balloon ride over the Nile River the Valley of the Kings!! OMG - all so impressive! A must see in one’s life time.
I liked the experience so much that when my fiend and her family visited Egypt in the Summer of 2023, I bought the cruise for them as a gift. I contacted Heba, my trusted agent of courses. She again did an amazing job. She even upgraded my fiends to a better ship since I’m a retuned customer. My fiends and her family had a wonderful once in a life time experience thanks to Egypt Gift Tour and Heba.
Because of the great past experiences, I’m contracting Heba for the third time to help me with an even bigger group of more than 10 people. I’m sure she will do a great job to give everyone an outstanding experience.
I highly recommend Egypt Gift Tour and Heba. I would rate more than 5 stars if I could.

We had soooo much fun on this trip. The guide Mohamed wafa told us lots of history and background in ancient Egypt! We were with 2 years kid but he cared of us a lot.
We couldn’t visit and enjoy so many temples if the guide wasn’t with us.
Thank you for the amazing trip!!

Mohamad is amazing. Sense of humor and Great knowledge of Egypt culture. He has been the best guide we have had. So thank you for arranging this with him. I would definitely use his services again and rate him a 10/10. It's been a wonderful cruise experience with my kids. Clean and comfortable room, great transportation all the way, good food and drinks on the boat, the sunset view from room is just amazing and romantic! Love to recommend to all my friends!

Best thing I’ve ever done! Even traveling as a single female I always felt safe. Travel with Mona, she’s very enthusiastic about teaching you all things Egypt.

We had done an entire package of Egypt from Heba and Egypt gift tours. Heba was able to create personalized tour that included this Nile cruise. Rocky was our tour guide and Egyptologist. He engaged all by telling stories with us being the characters. It allowed good engagement from all. We had a group of 12 so got to know each other as well.
This cruise a whirlwind of Egypt.
Amazing history, temples and human ingenuity on display. This is going to want you to come back for more detailed tour of Luxor, Aswan and other sites.
Our balloon ride was canceled due to poor weather (which can happen). We were notified the night before and given option to refund money or take a tour of Luxor at night )we chose that) and it was great. Taking the streets in horse carriage during Ramadan was amazing look at culture and peek at life in Luxor (East Bank).
Overall amazing experience that leaves us with wanting to come back for more.

Brilliant experience from start to finish ! The entire tour company were so helpful & we couldn't possibly find fault with the crew on board the M/S Semiramis - they all made our Nile cruise so enjoyable with their friendliness & excellent food . The party night was great fun too !
Photos do not do justice to the amazing Temples , scenes & villages .
Our tour guide 'Rucky' welcomed us into his tour family and kept us all safe, informed & entertained. Stories of Egyptian Kings & Queens were brought to life by involving us all as 'cast members" - Just refer to me as 'Isis - Godess of Love & Beauty' 🥰 from now on !!
The most daunting thing was negotiating the tips but Rucky gave us all clear advice & made everything so easy. He was so knowledgeable and always ready to help with any haggling for the prices of any purchases We definitely had a most wonderful experience.
Unfortunately the hot air balloon ride was cancelled due to weather conditions but that didn't take away from our whole trip - we always felt that our comfort , enjoyment & safety were a priority .
We will be recommending this tour & our friend 'Rucky' to anyone keen to experience the Nile in the best way possible.

For 4 days in the Nile River cruise we were not just a family- we were RUCKY FAMILY!
Our dedicated guide, Rucky, gave an in-depth story of the temples we visited. He made it easy to understand through storry telling and using us as characters. Jist howp we had more time for pictures since the places were so nice!
Food could have been better in the cruise ship. Fish was often times undercooked and raw. Restaursnt staff particulary the managwr should be more respectful to its guest.
Aside from the food and manager, overall, it was an escellent experience with Rucky!

Definitely a pleasant and hassle free experience with Rocky Family! Rocky was a really really great tour guide. Rocky had tons of knowledge to share about Egypt’s history and has a creative way of explaining the myths and stories relevant to your tour site. Rocky also provides guidance in tipping and bargaining (when buying souvenirs). You can trust Rocky’s tour and food suggestions most especially around Luxor.
Rocky also helped in arranging wake up calls all through out which kept us within schedule. He was well known in most sites like Nubian Village and Luxor which will make the trip more enjoyable.
He will also show you some dance moves when you are cruising along the Nile River. Awesome Trip with Rocky Family!
He is Dangerous in keeping time so do inform him if you need more time to take pictures.
