Nile Cruise Tours from Luxor
Egypt: Put at the top of your bucket list
, 6/20/13
 I just returned from a 5-day Nile Cruise from Luxor to Aswan with Memphis Tours, and I had such a fantastic time I'd feel guilty not telling as many people as I can about it.


Our ship, the Minerva Jaz was excellent with very attentive staff and an impressive itinerary-- but our tour guide Ahmed El Prince was absolute greatness!! I embarked on the cruise after touring Cairo and a few other countries in the Middle East by myself, and I usually prefer the do-it-myself trips without official guides or groups. But what a difference it makes, seeing a country so rich in history with a guide so knowledgeable and enjoyable! It ended up being one of my all-time favorite trips, and invoked such a love for Egypt inside me-- I wish more people could see this side of the country. Ahmed was absolutely professional, courteous, always went out of his way to help all members of his group, and acted as a liaison for us when we needed help speaking the language, purchasing souvenirs, intervening with hasslers, etc-- going far beyond his basic job description of simply telling us stories about the sights-- which he always did with impressive knowledge and enthusiasm. All trips to Egypt deserve a companion like Ahmed. 

As a female tourist travelling solo, I of course had concerns about safety after reading news articles full of uncertainty and being warned by absolutely everyone I know. I have to tell you though, there was not a moment that I felt remotely unsafe. It's a tragedy how the media portrays Egypt when there has never been a better time to visit. With such a recent decline in tourism, all the famous sights that used to require hours of waiting in line can usually now be entered immediately. Prices are lower than ever. The only drawbacks I will warn you, is that there are still hasslers in certain areas who want you to buy their goods-- but the country is far worth training yourself to ignore the pushy ones. Once you get past this you will meet the most generous, friendly, loving Egyptians who welcome you to their country like family and do all they can to help without even knowing you. This, combined with the beauty of a country that dates back far longer than I can imagine, the hospitality my new friend Ahmed, and all those I met with Memphis, made this trip unforgettable. I wish the same kind of adventure for everyone.


Nile Cruise Tours from Luxor
great assistance for our travel arrangements
, 2/27/12
My husband and I are travelling to Egypt in March and we always wanted to take the Nile Cruise. I came across Memphis tours on the net and read very good reviews from other travellers. I contacted them through their chat line which was quite handy and Abdo Younis replied to all my queries and has been providing me with all the assistance to get all arrangements for our transfers to airport and our hotel, domestic flights and accommodation to have an unforgettable travel experience. I have to say Abdo Younis has been fantastic; he has replied to all my e-mails promptly and has made the changes to my itinerary to suit us. Abdo was very helpful when getting our visas and from his own initiative he rang the visa department in Egypt to find out if we needed to get a visa upon arrival or if we needed to get it in advance. Abdo has made our travel plans a lot easier. I would certainly recommend getting in touch Abdo if you are planning on going to Egypt. I am counting the days to go to Egypt.

Nile Cruise Tours from Luxor
Flexible and Relaxing, Mohamed Emam is a great tour guide
, 1/14/12
Our four day cruise down the Nile was very professionally organized by Eman Rashad, and then led by the very knowledgeable Mohamed Emam. If you can get him as your tour guide, you should! He knows Egyptian history and egyptology extremely well and his passion for Egypt really comes through in his tours, and he is very patient with questions. The temples are of course fantastic, especially Karnak. The cruise boat was fun and relaxing. The food on it was good quality although not excellent, and had both western style and Egyptian food at every meal. The rooms were very comfortable. We tended to see sights in the early mornings before things got too crowded and sailed in the afternoons. As a do-it-yourself jam-pack-your-days type of traveler, I wasn't sure I'd be able to handle a cruise experience where I had no control over the schedule. But in this case it's worth it - there are too many sights that would be hard to see on your own, even if you speak a bit of Arabic. Egypt isn't set up for individual travelers. And Memphis Tours is very accommodating - there were some extra sights we wanted to see in the valley of the workers at Luxor and Mohamed booked us a car and gave us a great tour without advance notice. All the staff very friendly, and it is also clear that a lot of sights are working hard to change for the better (such as hawkers hassling crowds before entrance to sights less frequently). It was great that Memphis Tours was so flexible and accommodating. Also, you can get a discount if you have an international student ID cards at many entrances to the sites (which means memphis tours will discount your total package price).

Really good service.
, 3/20/11
I’d like to say a big thank you to the staff of Memphis Tours for making our recent holiday so successful. We had a "Nile Cruise" on (eventually) The MS Royal Viking - which about 2/3 full. Our guide Ahmed was most knowledgeable and helpful throughout. The sites (Valley of the Kings etc) were almost empty of tourists and all the people we met were delighted to see some tourists again. Although we organised our own travel to a nfrom the boat, the Memphes team at Luxor was most helpful and their manager in Aswan went out of his way to make our trip to Abu Simbel a great success.
