What people love about Nile Cruises from Cairo
- Egyptian Treasures: 7 Day Journey from Pyramids to Siwa Oasis
Siwa was truly an escape from the hustle and bustle. The oasis was everything I imagined—quiet, serene, and rich with history. Our guide did a fantastic job sharing stories and making the experience come alive. The small group size made it feel personal, and the entire trip was well-organized from start to finish. I left feeling refreshed and connected to a part of Egypt I never knew existed.
- Legend of the Nile: 6-Days Tour for 5 stars Nile Cruise Aswan to Luxor & Sleeper Train Round Trip From Cairo
This is my second tour with the same company , We took the sleeper from Cairo to Aswan. That could only be described as an "experience " after surviving that we went to the boat , The cruise was a great way to relax between our trips to visit the temples and sites. Our guide Talaat was very knowledgeable and very considerate of what we wanted from each tour and offered extra options to compliment our interests so that our trip was even more enjoyable. Thanks you so much Talaat
- 8 Days Ultimate Luxury Cairo, Alexandria & Nile cruise
We are glad we used Ramasside tours to organise our entire visit to Egypt. I had just booked Hotel and Airtickes. They took care of everything including domestic flights. Their staff picked us from airport and dropped us to airport on return. They had a dedicated spacious comfortable vehicle for us. Staff: Extremely informed, courteous, punctual and professional. We were very comfortable with them . They had very good knowledge of the places we visited and explained to us in great detail. We wish to acknowledge the great work of Mohammed - who recieved us when we landed, Nora - Who took us to Museum, Citadel, Synagogue, Giza, Saqqara and Memphis. Mehmood- who took us to the breathtaking places in Luxor.
