 Verified  Imperial Egypt Nile Cruise I had an amazing experience on this Nile River Cruise and would highly recommend it, especially for solo travelers. From the moment I arrived, everything was perfectly organized. I was picked up from the airport in a private car, which made the journey smooth and stress-free. As a solo traveler, I felt safe, comfortable, and well looked after throughout the entire trip. The cabin on the cruise was spacious, comfortable, and offered stunning views of the Nile. A special thank you to our tour guide, Hady, who was absolutely outstanding. He is incredibly knowledgeable about Egyptian history and culture and shared fascinating insights at every site we visited. More importantly, he genuinely cared about everyone in the group and always made sure we were comfortable and enjoying our experience. One of the things I appreciated most was the small group size. There were only five people in our group, which made the tour feel much more personal and enjoyable. We never felt rushed, had plenty of opportunities to ask questions, and received a lot of individual attention from Hady. What made this trip even more special was that I celebrated my birthday during the cruise. Hady went above and beyond by arranging a birthday cake for me, which was such a thoughtful surprise. It made me feel truly welcomed and turned an already wonderful trip into an unforgettable memory. Overall, this was one of the best travel experiences I have ever had. Excellent organization, beautiful accommodations, breathtaking Nile views, a fantastic small-group atmosphere, and an exceptional guide made this journey truly unforgettable. I would highly recommend this cruise to anyone visiting Egypt, especially solo travelers.

 Verified  Great Cruise and Tour Guide We have had an amazing time on this cruise with Imperial Egypt! Hady Ahmed, our tour guide, was so great and knowledgeable about all the information about the different temples and mythology of Ancient Egypt. He made sure we all together when he shared history among the busy crowds. He also made sure that we had free time to explore the temples. The cruise itself has been nice and the rooms are comfortable, clean and well air conditioned. The food on the cruise is a buffet, and all the staff are so nice. The food is delicious and there is a variety for vegetarians. We loved our time with Imperial Egypt and Hady. I highly recommend our tour guide!

 Verified  Great way to see the highlights of Egypt Six members of our family flew to Aswan to begin this 4 day adventure with our outstanding guide Hady and Imperial Egypt. Hady was exceptional - he looked out for us the entire time, made sure we were hydrated and comfortable, well informed of the plan, and answered all of our questions, on top of all of the education given from site to site. The beginning part of the trip was challenging due to travel fatigue (11h time zone difference from home), which made the series of tours to the Philae Temple, Nubian Village, Abu Simbel, and the Aswan High Dam very tiring. After this, the cruise became more comfortably pqced.

 Verified  Nile Cruise with Hady guide for imperial egypt ★★★★★ 5/5 STARS Hady is, without a doubt, the best guide we have ever had during all the trips we have taken. From the very beginning, he was incredibly attentive, kind, organized, and genuinely caring toward everyone in the group. He is always clear when explaining everything, takes his time, and makes sure everyone understands and feels comfortable asking questions. You never feel rushed or like you are simply being taken from one place to another. What truly sets Hady apart is his incredible knowledge of Egyptian history and the way he shares it. He doesn’t just give you facts or repeat a memorized speech. He brings history to life through stories, examples, context, and fascinating details. He explains things in a way that is easy to understand and makes you genuinely interested in learning more. He also takes the time to answer every question and make sure you really understand the history behind what you are seeing. But Hady is much more than knowledgeable. He is incredibly charismatic, cheerful, and funny. He has a great sense of humor and knows how to make you laugh, which makes the entire experience even more enjoyable. You can tell that he truly loves what he does, loves his country and its history, and genuinely enjoys teaching and sharing it with others. The journey along the Nile itself has also been an incredible experience. Cruising along the river, watching the landscapes and villages go by, and visiting the amazing temples along the way has been truly unforgettable. Having Hady with us made the experience even more meaningful because we were able to understand and appreciate the history behind every place we visited. We have traveled to many countries and have had many different guides over the years, and Hady is by far the best guide we have ever had. He has made our experience in Egypt absolutely incredible and has been one of the highlights of our trip. We also want to thank Imperial Egypt for organizing such a great experience and, especially, for having someone like Hady representing them. If you have the opportunity to have Hady as your guide, don’t hesitate. You will be in excellent hands. Thank you, Hady, for making our experience so special, memorable, and fun. We highly recommend Hady to anyone visiting Egypt! Warm regards, Ariana & Daniel Bolivia

 Verified  ⭐ An unforgettable 4-day, 3-night Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor I had a fantastic experience on the 4-day, 3-night Nile cruise from Aswan to Luxor, and it was definitely one of the highlights of my trip to Egypt. A special mention has to go to our guide, Mohammed Abdo, who was absolutely fantastic throughout the journey. Mohammed has an incredible amount of knowledge about Ancient Egypt and the various temples and historical sites we visited. What I really appreciated was the way he explained things — not simply giving us dates and facts, but putting the history into context and bringing the stories of Ancient Egypt to life. He was also very professional, friendly and approachable, and was always happy to answer questions and explain things further. You could tell that he genuinely enjoys what he does and takes pride in sharing Egypt’s incredible history with visitors. The cruise itself was a wonderful way to experience the Nile, travelling between the different sites while enjoying the scenery along the river. Waking up each morning and seeing the Nile from the boat was an experience in itself. A big thank you to Mohammed Abdo for making the sightseeing and historical side of the cruise so enjoyable. His knowledge really added another dimension to the experience. I would definitely recommend this Nile cruise, and if you are lucky enough to have Mohammed Abdo as your guide, you’re in very good hands! 5/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly recommended!

He was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, professional, and always made sure we were comfortable and enjoying the experience！ Mohammed explained the history and culture of Egypt in a very interesting and easy-to-understand way. He was also very patient and happy to answer all of our questions. What we especially appreciated was his attention to detail and the fact that he genuinely cared about making our trip special. Thanks to Mohammed, we were able to learn much more about the incredible places we visited and understand the history behind them, rather than simply seeing the sights.

 Verified  History, Hospitality, and Relaxation When looking for a vacation that combines cultural adventure with time to relax, this tour delivers on both. Traveling through ancient Egyptian history while also having time to unwind made for a really enjoyable experience. The food was buffet style with a great variety of options every day, and the quality was consistently excellent. The chefs did a fantastic job, and the hospitality from the rest of the crew made the experience even better. One of the biggest highlights of the tour was our guide, Hady. His archaeological experience from working for more than 10 years at Karnak Temple, along with his many years as a tour guide, really showed. He explained the history and timelines clearly and had an incredible amount of knowledge about the sites we visited. Beyond that, Hady was friendly, approachable, and very good at building a genuine connection with everyone on the tour. His kindness and personality made the excursions that much more enjoyable. Transportation throughout the trip was also very smooth. Whether we were traveling by car, horse carriage, or boat, everything was well organized and there were no delays. The boat itself had some great amenities that we were able to enjoy during our time on board. The spa was a particular highlight, and Hannah provided a very relaxing massage. Afternoon tea was another nice touch, and the evening music, belly dancing, performers, and social events gave everyone an opportunity to relax and socialize. Our room also had a stunning view of the Nile, which made sailing along the river even more special. Overall, this was a wonderful way to experience Egypt while still having plenty of opportunities to relax and enjoy the journey. The singular complaint is the Wi-Fi service on the boat. The provider is honestly horrendous and does not seem capable of handling the number of people on board. The connection was extremely unstable, with nonstop disconnections and, on multiple days, absolutely no connection at all. I highly advise the travel company to change the Wi-Fi service provider ASAP.
