Both me and my girlfriend found the Nile cruise both enchanting and beautiful.
The only problems encountered are down, in my opinion, to nothing more than such vast differences in culture and location, and if you can look past this you really can enjoy the trip.
For one, its going to be hot, its in the desert and you're on a boat. But the cabin is as cool as you want it to be, and there's plenty of shelter on the sun terreace.
The food isn't to the same quality as you would find in a 5 star restuarant, but neither is the price of the trip. This said there was always enough and if you didn't like something there was always an alternative, including vegaterian.
The trips where brilliant, the temples sensational. Our guide, Usef, was full of stories and facts and was always willing to share knowledge. I would particularly reccomend the trip to Abu Simbal and the camel ride.
To sum up the trip was brilliantly organised, the staff extremely helpful and friendly and the country was beautiful, a particulary beautiful time is in the evening with the sun settign while you cruise to your next destination.
I would recommend this trip to anyone (apart from the distinctly upper class).
P.s, our boat was the Da Vinci, would recommend middle floor or above, apparently engines can be noisy. Also bring a antibacterial hand gel and if you really are well prepared take probiotics for two weeks leading upto the trip.
