Good Points

The Cosmos and Adonis staff were as helpful as could be. Our cabin boy in particular was excellent. The boat was generally clean. The Egyptologist was good at his job and added a touch of humour, much needed when there are so many early starts to escape the main heat of the day. The restaurant staff went out of their way to make any birthdays and anniversaries special.


Bad Points

All but one in the British party of 47 suffered from stomach upsets and/or diarrhoea. Both my wife and I had to miss excursions, so did the majority of the British party, due to illness. The food was monotonous and most thought the same food was re-heated, so adding to the chance of stomach upsets. The Glories of the Nile itinerary was not adhered to, with most of the trips squashed into the end of the week, there was very little free time.


General Comments

This holiday was booked in January 2006 for a cruise on MS Lady Mary but only when on the coach from Luxor airport were we informed that due to overbooking by Flash Tours, everyone on the coach, irrespective of how long ago they booked, would be on the MS Adonis. The lack of courtesy shown by Cosmos in the way we were informed of the change overshadowed the holiday. Speaking with other passengers it appeared that Cosmos were still taking bookings for the MS Lady Mary two weeks before departure. A formal complaint was made to Cosmos regarding this matter and the reply was that the fault lay with Flash Tours and it was in no way the fault of Cosmos!
