4.5-Day Nile Cruise to Aswan with Balloon Ride

★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 168 reviews · 5 days · from $1,200

5-day Luxor to Aswan Nile cruise with sunrise hot air balloon, Karnak, Valley of the Kings, Edfu, Kom Ombo, Philae, and Abu Simbel.

“The trip was extremely well organised, Zeinab was extremely responsive over WhatsApp and our tour guides, Paul and Samar Helmet were very knowledgeable. Highlight was definitely the sunrise balloon ride. Only negatives were the extortionate price of drinks on the boat (TiYi), a medium bottle of water was 8x the price of what we were paying for a large bottle of water off the boat. This was even worse if you wanted an alcoholic drink. Then also the pool on the boat, definitely could have done with a deep clean. The staff on the boat were super attentive, helpful and welcoming”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 104 reviews · 4 days · from $599

Luxor to Aswan 4-day Nile cruise with Egyptology guides, Edfu and Kom Ombo temples, Abu Simbel early trip, and Aswan sites.

“Day 1/2/3 were very nice, food on the cruise was better than expected, cruise staff friendly and overall vibes were nice. Tours were culturally rich and fine, only had a bad day 4 for Abu Simbel trip, the minivan was overloaded with people, old model, worn out, and the Air Conditioning wasn’t good enough and it was a total of 8 hours ride from aswan to temple and reverse, it was not worth the trouble as everyone was sweating the while trip, so make sure your rides are well equipped (from the car/van and the driver as well) Abu simbel trip issues with minivan and AC ruined the total experience…”

11.3-Day Nile Cruise to Aswan with Balloon Ride

★★★★★★★★★★3.6 · 43 reviews · 3 days · from $750

3-day Luxor to Aswan Nile cruise with VIP hot air balloon, temple guides, Edfu and Kom Ombo, plus an early Abu Simbel visit.

“We booked a 3-day cruise trip in Egypt that included a balloon ride to see the sunset. Because we were placed in the third wave, we waited on the ground until sunset was already over. After landing, a guide requested additional payment for videos/photos. We paid and were told the files would be sent shortly, but even after one month we have not received anything, despite following up with the tour guides. Based on this experience, I cannot recommend this operator.”
