View on Google MapsA magical cruise (3 April to 10 April 2025) We chose Memphis Tours to organize a cruise on the Nile. We spent 7 wonderful days. We were met late at night at the airport by the agency representative, Ibrahim, who drove us to MS Salacia. What a beautiful boat for this adventure, a lot of mahogany woodwork, a lot of copper, a real atmosphere of Agatha Christie ... The cabins (about thirty) are all very nice, they are large (24m2) with two bathrooms, two large windows and good bedding. Everything is very clean the boat is constantly polished. On the decks you can enjoy a swimming pool, very comfortable deck chairs, perfect for drinking a good Egyptian beer or mint tea while watching the Nile banks pass quietly. On this boat, we eat very well. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are hearty and tasty. The Chef and the entire restaurant team are at your service. The excursions are very well organized which allows to visit many sites while having the possibility to also enjoy the comfort of the boat. Finally a big thank you to Sabri, our guide who speaks excellent French and who led us through the temples and the Valley of the Kings, from Luxor to Aswan and even to Abu Simbel. Sabri has made us discover in detail, historical explanations and humor the lives of pharaohs, priests and goddesses. We had a great time with him. In the end, we really recommend Menphis Tours for such an Egyptian adventure. Everything was really perfect. Bruno and Brigitte
We docked at Luxor West Bank to see Karnak and Luxor Temple. We arrived late in the afternoon but the last temple was well lit. 2400 small ram headed sphinx’s lined the route joining the 2 temples. (You can only walk so far along the 3 mile or so pathway) Impressive statues and carvings everywhere. On our last day on the MS Salacia, we visited The East Bank with Memphis Tours. After an early breakfast on board, we said farewell to this wonderful cruise ship (oldy worldy with plenty of character) and set off to see the hot air balloons landing at the Colossi of Memnon. Super high temperatures already as we arrived at the Temple of Hatshepsut. Wow! Then onto the Valley of the Kings. Our tickets allowed access to 3 tombs. For an extra 700 EGP you could visit the tomb or Tutankhamun, only his mummy is there at the moment, all the gold coffins and masks are in the Museum in Cairo. (Being moved also to another Museum shortly) Memphis Tours arranged a hotel for our use in Luxor where we met their representative Ali who checked us in, arranged all our flight transfers etc. for our next stop - Cairo. Great service xx

This five-day four-night Dahabiya cruise from Memphis Tours from Luxor to Aswan was a perfect introduction to an amazing country. Memphis Tours arranged everything from picking us up at our hotel to dropping us off at the airport and even escorting us the to check in counter at the airport. Wow! what else can I say. Our personal tour guide Abanoub Nazmi was awesome! He was knowledgeable, punctual, funny, and made sure we had a wonderful time. Abanoub is extremely knowledgeable with the historical sites, the city and its culture and we always felt very safe around him because he knows so many people. I would highly recommend anyone traveling to Luxor/Aswan through Memphis tours and if you are blessed to have Abanoub as your tour guide you will defiantly not be disappointed. And to the staff of the Dahabiya Amoura thank you, the food your hospitality and safety was amazing. This was our trip to Egypt and would gladly recommend and use Memphis tours again. Book it! You will be very happy you did! PS.. We were there in the wintertime so please pack a heavy jacket because the nights do get cold.
We had a two day tour of Luxor with our tour guide Marwa Ali, she was amazing and so knowledgeable. We really enjoyed her company and learnt so much,the experience wouldn't have been the same without her. I cant recommend her highly enough. Our driver for the two days was Osha, he was fabulous and so kind and friendly. We want to say a huge thank you to both of them for making our stay so wonderful.
Went to Aswan, Luxor, Edfu, and Kom Ombo. Memphis organized the transfer between these cities to be seamless by booking a cruise. Had amazing tours in each city. Our tour guide, Abdalla, was incredibly special and contributed greatly to our enjoyment of the trip. Not only was he extremely knowledgeable and informative, but by the end of the trip, he felt like a part of the family. Would highly recommend him as a guide. This tour includes many temple visits, which is amazing, but the change of pace of visiting Elite Aromatherapy in Aswan as well as visiting the Nubian village was great. Traveling through these areas offers a pleasant reprieve from busy Cairo!
My guide Mansour was excellent and is a seasoned guide who spoke without notes. We enjoyed his sense of humor, punctuality and eagerness to assist. I highly recommend Mansour for this tour - 5-star Egyptologist guide.
I had a great experience in luxur, Hany Refaat was our tour guide, very focused in explaining every detail about all Egyptian times, about the temples and the Nile to Aswan, very talented with a lot knowledge, he give us time take photos I recommend him to anyone who goes to luxsur and Aswan. He take he’s job very serious
Hany was an incredibly knowledgeable guide with strategies to help us into the various sites efficiently. He knew when and where to give us information and knowledge, and then gave us time to explore on our own. I highly recommend Hany.
Had an absolutely stellar time. Our guide was the very knowledgeable and affable Hany Refaat, who is one of the best. Knows his way around and the sites of interest phenomenally well. Patient and answers all questions and indeed enriched us in knowledge, history and culture much more than the usual guided tours. Can recommend without reservation. One of our best vacations in a long time, great cruise on the Sonesta Sun Goddess. Great food , courteous and helpful staff on the boat. absolutely all was petfect. Couldnt wish for anything better
We joined Memphis Tours for our tour of Egypt. The tour of the East and West Bank of the Nile included the Karnak and Luxor temples, the Valley of the Kings, Queen Hatshepsut's funerary temple, and Memnon Colossi. We also joined Memphis Tours for our tour of Aswan, including Abu Simbel and the High Dam. The tour was great - comfortable and spacious aircon vehicles, safe drivers, bottled water, etc. And the second best part (the best is actually seeing all these ancient sites), was our Egyptologist - Hany. He has so much of information to share and he literally was a "CTRL+F" - you could ask him anything and he would pull it out of his memory database. We gained so much background knowledge, and could understand the history behind each ancient site because of him! His passion at being an Egyptologist shines through and you can tell that he really enjoys what he does! Highly recommended.
