Their service is fast & professional, all their staff (the trip organizers, the operating personnel & the selected tour guide) were resourceful, , well prepared and very highly qualified wither in providing the service or communicating with the tourists, the organizer was helpful and responded promptly to all our inquiries concerning the cruise-liner and the trip information. The payment was processed so smoothly & fast with continuous follow up & feedback by the staff members.
The selected tour guide –Alaa El Sawy- was very knowledgeable & resourceful in global history, he was also caring, pleasant, and entertaining at all times, and he was never hesitant to provide extra information or service, and although it was an English guided tour, he put extra effort to repeat the same information in Arabic –for Arabic tourists-as well.
I was lucky to find their website; their rates were very reasonable comparing to other online-tour agents or even to the cruise liner rates, it would be more expensive if we had made our reservation direct through the cruise liner website.

“Great Nile Cruise on the Movenpick Royal Lily, with guide Eid Mohamed”

, 5/19/13
Our cruise from Luxor to Aswan, 13th to the 17th of May, was excellent, to say the least. Ms. Eman Rashad dealt with the booking, and should be considered a woman with nerves of steel, as more than a dozen itineraries were under consideration, well over a month before departure. Thank you for all of the hard work.
Our guide, Eid Mohamed, was very knowledgable, and I speak from past experience, as I've done the cruise twice (different boats and tour companies, though) before, in 2009 and 2005. He was very helpful when a member of our Canadian group got sick, and thoroughly surprised me when he took the time to explain Kom Ombo to her on the top deck after we all returned on board.
His assistance in the Aswan Souq was also great, as was our cafe experience after it all ended. We intend to return to Aswan for an extended stay, so it's really great to have Eid as a trusted contact. Again, thank you!

“Highly Recommended”

I contacted Memphis Tours to arrange a cruise for myself and my boyfriend. Marwa at Mephis was very honest about what we could expect from the cruise and even showed me a negative review she had received from a client.
Due to time constraints we took the cruise on the Swiss Inn Ramadis II which didn't come as highly recommended as others cruise liners. However we really enjoyed the cruise on the Swiss Inn Radamis II and it far exceeded our expectations. We had a good sized room which was cleaned twice daily. The food was better than expected and the buffet provided some variety. Our tours were exceptional due to our guide King Hassam (Professor Hassam). He was extremely knowlegable and very patient with any filming or extra time we took to take photos. The sailing was done well with our first night in Aswan, then Edfu then Luxor.
Prior to our cruise in Aswan we were collected from our hotel by Mustafa from Memphis even though it was a short walk from our hotel to the cruiser. He made this easy and stress free, as well as organising a hot air balloon tour in Luxor at the last minute.
Thanks again to both Marwa and Mustafa for making our time in Egypt really enjoyable. I would not hesitate in recommending your company to any of my friends or family for future trips in Egypt.
