Great tour - This tour was amazing. The guides were very knowledgeable, personable and attentive to our needs. The boat we stayed in was top notch as well as the boat we stayed on as we went down the Nile River. We were pleasantly surprised as we did not know what to expect. The tour van drivers were courteous and knew where they were going and how to avoid traffic jams. The tour guides gave us enough free time to explore on our own as well. We recommend this tour whole heartedly.

Very good trip - If Egypt is in your bucket list, this trip is for you. From the time we landed in Luxor till we left to come back to the US, we were well taken care of every step of the way. All logistics were handled very well and the schedule was adjusted as needed if minor delays happen to get back on track! (e.g our Hot Air Balloon landing was slightly delayed but we got back on track in no time). Our tour guide Ahmed was extremely knowledgeable, acommodating and helpful. He was very attentive to everyone and their needs. All mody tours representatives were very helpful. The staff was friendly and courteous. The activities were well-put, we really got a taste of Egypt - from visiting historic temples, to learning about perfumes and papyrus, and to experiencing the food, culture and of course the market! We took the extra Abu Simbel trip and Hot Air Balloon and both are highly recommended!

A wonderful way to tour the Nile! - We chose this tour because of the wonderful reviews and because the itinerary matched all the sites we wanted to see on a Nile cruise. Although our trip started off with a late arrival into Luxor due to a problem at the airport, our guide Mahmoud was so helpful and he was able to make sure that even though we were late for our tour, that we didn’t miss the sights. He took us to the temples in Luxor and Karnak and even brought us some lunch and waters for the lunch we missed! Over the two days that he was our tour guide he was always friendly, knowledgeable and helped us in so many ways! Our trip to the Valley of the slings was great and we even did the optional tour of King Tut’s tomb. Mahmoud made sure that the rest of our trip was great and was very communicative on each day’s itinerary. We choose to do some optional activities such as the Luxor hot air balloon and Abu Simbel tour. I highly recommend the hot air balloon ride in Luxor as it was a definite highlight of our time in Egypt! Mahmoud set everything up and we were very happy that we could text him if we had any questions or requests. We really enjoyed our other tour guides in addition to Mahmoud. Our tour guide in Edfu (Mustafa) was friendly and informative and we had a nice time visiting the temple in Edfu. Our other guide Wael was especially wonderful as we toured the temple in Kom Ombu and the Crocodile museum. He gave us so much history and insights into the temple and he surprised me by being so knowledgeable about the hieroglyphics as well. The cruise accommodations were nice and the rooms were always cool and comfortable. The food on the cruise was tasty and everyday they offered a different choice of soup, entrees, salads and desserts. I especially enjoyed the updated machine that let you choose which coffee/espresso/latte that you wanted. The sun deck was a nice place to relax after a day of site seeing and the pool was refreshing. If you get a chance - get up early and see the sunrise over the Nile. Not only is it beautiful but it is the coolest part of the day! My advice is to always bring lots of water, sunscreen, light clothing, hats, and cooling towels as we appreciated all of those! It gets very hot in southern Egypt and you have to be prepared to stay cool! Bring lots of small bills to give tips to the many people that will help you during your stay in Egypt. If you are looking for an affordable and enjoyable cruise then I would recommend Mody Egypt tours. Take lots of pictures and videos so you can remember all the memories!

Luxor to Aswan trip - Hani was a wonderful guide with so much knowledge of the history but more importantly he made us feel safe and cared for and nothing was too much trouble. The tour took in all the big highlights with opportunities for extra side trips to expand the experience further.

Nice trip but tired - The stay at cruise, temple tours was awesome. Explanation of the guide Mahmoud is good, absolutely better than you visit the sights by yourswlf. All the waiters on the cruise is hospitable, however, tbh the equipment of the cruise is old which is compatible with your price of this trip.
