“This cruise was way above my expectations in every aspect. I was a bit suspicious about the number of positive reviews but now I understand why. Even before starting the cruise the support was great. We faced three delays and reschedules from our flight operator and each time Hany, the person in contact at the tour operator, was very flexible and adaptive to our program. The ship was in a great condition. The room could be a bit bigger but still there was enough space to move around and the windows and deck allowed us to have the best sunset views. But the best part was our guide, Mohamed Abdo…”

Remember, this a smaller river cruise ship...not a giant ocean liner. The cruise line will be adequate. It will be clean, have a sun deck and a working small bathroom. The staff will generally be friendly and attentive. Don't expect too much more. It's a clean place to…”
