We traveled on the MS Nile Commodore. I was a little concerned having read a number of reviews about the boat being tired in appearance and the quality of the food. However,this was misplaced as the boat , staff , food and trips were of the highest quality. For breakfast there are choices of cereals, variety of eggs , croissants , breads ,hot food etc. The lunches were better and the deserts were to die for.The evenings are more formal and you are served at your table to a set menu 9 4 Courses). These are different every night and of a good standard. I had no issues with the food at all. In some reviews they talk about the drinks being expensive - these are the current prices - small bottle of water 5 LE pounds , large water 10 LE pounds. Small beer from 25 to 30 LE pounds ( bottle and draft ) Glass of wine 25 LE pounds ( my wife and her friend liked it ) Spirits were a lot more expensive.Our exchange rate was about 8 LE pounds to our £.

The trips were excellent with the Valley of the Kings being my personal favourite. The trips are made in the morning. Breakfast usually between 7am and 8am for an 8am onto the coach. Usually back on the boat by mid day.

I loved the whole experience, the boat , staff ( superb) and ancient sites. Weather averaged about 42 degrees. Nothing better sailing down the Nile in the afternoon with a cool beer.
