Customer Review
Egypt (Cairo & Nile Cruise) with NileCruiseHolidays, Petra, and Jerusalem
Great trip at a great price with small group of 10 (including our family of four) or mostly just the four of us with a guide and driver. Eman did a fantastic job setting everything up including adding Jordan and Israel on to the trip. Everything went as planned with drivers and guides meeting us at every airport. Ashraf, our guide for the Nile Cruise from Luxor to Aswan was an experienced archeologist with a wealth of knowledge he readily shared – truly outstanding. Ahmad, our guide in Cairo and Memphis, really made us feel welcome and at home – more like a friend than just a guide. We decided not to do the hot air balloon over the Valley of the Kings but did add a great excursion to a Nubian village and swim in the Nile near Aswan. NileCruiseHolidays was a great value combination of service, performance, and price.
