4 nights Luxor and Aswan Nile Cruise including Abu Simbel,Air Balloon From Luxor

We really enjoyed visiting all the different sights and learning about the history of Egypt. We particularly enjoyed the Philae temple which we visited on the last day as it was set in a beautiful location and it was very interesting to hear about. The boat was brilliant and all the staff were excellent, they couldn’t do enough for us and were very welcoming. The guides were very knowledgeable and it was a pleasure to listen to them explain everything.

We traveled October 2021. Totally recommended with Moddy Tours. All tours on time, excellent vehicles and activities. We got what they promise and more. They exceed my expectations. The best thing : The guide, Mahmoud Amin. This guy did his job and more. Always willing to help with all., very clear explanations of sites, always pending of our meals, activities etc, People like him make great companies. In general if I go again I will take tours and everything with Moddy Tours.

This was the best experience of my LIFE! Sultan, our egyptologist and tour guide was very attentive and helpful throughout the trip. He's the reason why we have such an amazing time. We learned so much at the temples and ruins, we visited many places and Sultan helped us navigate all the stores. The food on the cruise was great and so were the rooms (very clean!!) All in all i highly recommend Mody Tours - this was the best cruise/experience ever!!!

I would highly recommend this cruise and tour. Our tour guide Sultan truly made our trip amazing! First, he always made sure we were happy and having the experience we wanted to. He gave great information when we were on our tours visiting the temples and historic sites in a really fun way so we remembered the stories. He also went above and beyond to help us celebrate a friend's birthday and also make sure we could arrange extra things we needed like transportation and a COVID test to get back home. The boat itself was pretty nice and included buffet breakfast, lunch, and dinner. There was always a big selection. Just note that the times are limited so you must be there at a specific time. There was a nice pool on the sundeck and it was never super crowded.

My overall experience wad very good. The boat was comfortable (named the Blue Shadow) and the standard for Egypt was pretty good. All the meals were included (buffet) and the quality was beyond my expectation. The drinks were not included and a little bit expensive but it’s fair. When I booked this cruise many pickup point were proposed and since I was in Hurghada I have chosen the only pickup point in Hurghada. Here I was a little bit disappointed as it was not mentionned that the transfer were not included in the price. We paid 45$ each for the transfer, but it was in a decent car with a private driver with good AC which took 4 hours. Once arrived in Luxor we met our guide Michael, he’s the best ! All the questions you have regarding Egypt he have an answer and he’s a very helpful person. It’s a shame that he couldn’t came with us in the cruise for the whole journey as the other guides were not as good as him. Especially the local guide we had in Abu Simbel, sorry for the word but he was useless. Regarding Abu Simbel I would suggest you to skip this temple, it’s a 7 hours journey with a wake up at 3:30 am and you only stay 1 hour. It doesn’t worth 7 hours journey if you already did temples in Egypt. The best experience was the Air Balloon in Luxor, that was memorable and definitely worth to wake up at 3am to see the sunrise from the sky. So thanks Mody Tour for organizing this I had a great experience. If I may, here some feedback from my end: A better communication on the pickup point and the exact timetable would be appreciated, as I wrote to ask the checkout time the last day to book my flight and was informed that will be around 5pm (which is true if you do the whole program). I didn’t want to miss my flight so I booked an evening flight but the checkout from the boat was at 12pm and we couldn’t did the last temple in the afternoon due to health issue; thanks to Michael we succeed to stay a bit longer in our room until 3pm but still if we had the information that the boat will be in Aswan the night before the checkout we would took an earlier flight. I think it would be good to let the customer decide on the last day if they want to do the temples in Aswan/Abu Simbel or just chill the last day and leave earlier.

We enjoyed a 4 night cruise to Luxor and Aswan. Our Tour guide Michael guided us during the whole stay and he made our trip unforgettable. Thanks to his company we learned a lot of insights and ancient history, he could really make all stories interesting! The boat and and the crew members was also very nice to us, food was good and the night shows were a lot of fun. Thanks Mody Tours for making our trip so much fun!

I read a lot about the ancient Egypt, I was dreaming about visiting Egypt one day. Finally I did, I spent 7 days in Egypt, 2 days in Cairo and 5 days on a Nile cruise from Luxor to Aswan, after visiting the great pyramids of Giza and the Egyptian museum I went to Luxor to start the 4 nights Nile cruise, it was the most enjoyable part of my trip to Egypt. Upon arrival to Luxor I checked on board, it was a five stars boat all cabins are Nile view. After lunch we visited the huge temple of Karnak after that we did Luxor temple, second day I waked up early morning to see Luxor from the sky, yes I booked a hot air balloon, it was great to watch the sun rise, I did hundreds of photos from above. After that we visited the valley of the kings and the funeral temple of queen Hatshepsut and the colossal statues of Memnon. We are on board, now lunch time, during lunch the boat started sailing to the south,in the evening our boat crossed through Esna lock, we reached Edfu late at night. Today is the third day on board, after the delicious breakfast we visited Horus Temple in Edfu, then we back on board, the boat sailed to Kom Ombo where we visited the twin temple at Kom Ombo in the evening, After visiting the temple and the crocodile museum we sailed to Aswan. My fourth day in Aswan started early morning by visiting the Temples of Abu Simbel. After lunch we visited the Nubian village, it was really nice to see the real life of Nubian people in Aswan where we saw also crocodiles, we back on board. Today is the last day in Aswan we went to the high dam and we visited the nice temple of Isis on phiala Island. I want to thank Hazem Hassan, the tour guide who was wis us the whole five days and all the crew of the boat.

No rating for just Good hence very good marked and this is only due to Ramzy (Tour Guide) being exceptional, he could not have done anymore, he was helpful, knowledgeable and very friendly as was the staff on the boat who were also amazing and very attentive. The boat (The Liberty), however is in need of a refurb (bit dated). Issues with lots of little things like none of our safes worked originally and there were other problems with the rooms. In fairness, the staff tried to remedy almost immediately. The food on board was very generous and tasty. The tour company (Mody Tours) were just average. Their initial communication was very good, however we booked Upper Deck rooms 4 months in advance but got Lower Deck rooms and when emailed as to why - no response. They also got our booking wrong so we had to pay a supplement ($184) to go from 2 doubles and a triple to what we thought we’d booked originally which was 3 doubles and a single.

La mejor experiencia del mundo. El guía Rabi maravilloso. La comida la mejor de Egipto y el barco 5 estrellas. El viaje de la vida. El vuelo en globo me lo llevaré por siempre en mi corazón.
