You visit Luxor Sightseeing such as the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut Temple, Colossi of Memnon, Karnak Temple and Luxor Temple. Then the Nile Cruise Sail to Aswan. On the Way the Nile Cruise Stops at Edfu City to visit Edfu Temple and at Kom Ombo City to visit Kom Ombo Temple. . At the End the Nile Cruise Arrive to Aswan. In Aswan you visit the High Dam, Philae Temple and Felucca Ride in the Nile around Aswan Islands.

In our Opinion this is the Ideal Program for a Nile Cruise Trip.

What Is The Budget Of This Tour?

Dear Clients Please know that the tour price covers the services stated in the “Inclusions” section only and there are many other personal expenses which will occur during your trip are not included in the Tour prices such as Optional Activities, Tipping etc …

Gratuities And Tipping:

How much is the average Tipping and when to give it?

Nile Cruise Crew:

On Average there are about 50 to 70 people working in the Nile Cruise boat. The Guest sees only 5 or 7 persons of the crew. So it is unfair to give tips to people that you see and forget other people. That’s why there is a rule in all Nile Cruises that Guest should not pay any tips for anyone during the Nile Cruise Trip. All Tips must be given at the end of your trip. You put your tips in an envelope and write the amount on the back then leave it at the Reception of your Nile Cruise. All Tips will be collected from clients and divided to the whole Cruise Staff. This is a Fair solution for everyone.

The Tips is about 4 US$ Per Person per Night. For Example, if you are 2 Person and having a 7 Nights’ accommodation in Nile Cruise your Tip Amount will be:

4 US$ x 7 Nights x 2 Person = 56 US$.

So you Leave 32 US$ in an Envelope at the Reception on the End of your Nile Cruise Trip.

For People who are carrying your bags in the check in and the check out from the Nile Cruise boat they will get alone tipping from you in the time of check out 1 US Dollars per person. Those tipping are not including in the tipping which you left at the reception of the Nile Cruise Boat

For The Drivers, Representatives and Guides:

The following amounts are Recommended and on a Per Person Basis (in American Dollars USD).

Cairo Representative 3 to 5 US$

Luxor Representative 3 to 5 US$

Aswan Representative 3 to 5 US$

Guides 5 to 7 US$ (Per Day)

Drivers 3 US$ (Per Day)

Horse Carriage in Edfu 4 US$ per Carriage

Please Note:

Tips are not an obligation on you. It is redemption for a good service. However wages in Egypt are very low. So most people depend on tips to survive, but this is not an excuse to give a bad service. If you feel that the person is not offering you a good service or stressing you to give him tips, DO NOT GIVE TIPS or REDUCDE THE AMOUNT. But please tell him why you did that. In most cases if you don’t give tips, people such as Driver, Cruise Staff, Felucca Captain or Carriage Car Driver will think that you gave the tips to your guide to give it to them and will start a Hard Talking with him about that and waste your time.
