    Good Points: Just returned from a great holiday on Lady Mary (6 October 2008). Wonderful experience - weather couldn't have been better; Egyptologist was probably the best we could have had. She even set us assignments on our trips. The temple visits took place very early, but it was worth beating the crowds (who were arriving as we finished). This also meant that we were more comfortable in the heat than those arriving later in the morning. The Egyptian party night was fantastic - we all wore Gallabayers (which were much cheaper to buy in the market - about £10 each after haggling). Our Cosmos rep was absolutely attentive and went beyond the call of duty. He was totally dedicated to his clients, and passed through the tables at mealtimes giving us our next itinerary, checking that we were all ok.

    Bad Points: Sunbeds were rather "tired" looking. But on the day of our departure they were replaced with brand spanking new ones. In fact, this brings the score up to 10/10.

    General comments: Take some sweets with you (mixed chews and refresher lollies etc in bags from the £1 shop). Local Nubian children also like coloured pencils. You can also use these as bargaining tools when haggling in the market place. Don't bother to take hair straighteners, electric kettles or hair driers - they set the smoke alarms off and are confiscated until the end of your stay. You have a hairdryer in the bathroom which is adequate.

    We are 2 couples who went for a week on the Lady Mary, July 2008. This ship was a 6 star !!!!! The food was excellent, the crew could not do enough for you, we [2 couples] had been before, but not on this ship, so all we wanted to do was dos out on the deck for 7 days!! AND WE DID!! We recommend paying the £49 to upgrade to "all in" we went through that in 2 days !!! The crew should have larger name badges also I would have liked the ship to have a " visitors book " to sign and make comme ...

    Can we add that the rep, was the most wonderful rep we have ever had and will probably never have one like him again. He was most attentive, every night he came to every table in turn and told us all about what was happening the following day, what time we would have an early morningcall, what to take with us etc. He wanted to know if anyone was poorly, what room no they were in and then the following day he would make enquiries as to whether they were felling better etc. When anyone needed to ...

    Where to start: The Lady Mary was great, from the initial welcome on board, until our final debarkation en route to our stay in Hurghada, we couldn't have asked for more. The rest of the British group were a good crowd and we tended to congregate on the top deck to chat in the evenings. Food was good, it would have been nice to see more Middle Eastern cuisine but not exactly sure what Egyptian food is like anyway. Cabins were good, water always hot and the towel sculptures were a nice touch. The ...

    I couldn't have enjoyed myself more, the food, the people, the entertainment were all totally wonderful. The crew were polite and helpful, the rep was a good laugh and our guide was so knowledgeable, friendly and definitely one of the best. I would advise that Sterling seems to be the currency in highest demand and is accepted everywhere so no panic with changing currency. I'd recommend all inclusive, as the drinks can get a little dear and you can upgrade when you arrive for about £8 per ...

    7 out of our party of 8 had stomach problems that lasted a few days and in some cases persisted after the trip. It did not completely spoil the trip but didn't improve it. Monarch Air seating arrangements only good for circus midgets and Lilliputians. Uncomfortable flight. Flight attendants typically British and bossy. They charge extra for an exit row or bulkhead seats! Is that a European practice or just Monarch?

    My wife and I have just returned from a cruise on the Lady Mary, and we were most impressed. The staff could not be more helpful. The cabin we had was well appointed and cleaned daily to a very high standard. Excellent food, well prepared and presented with an earnest desire to cater for all tastes. Go with an open mind and look beyond the "Full British breakfast" mentality. I have wanted to see the "Treasures" of Egypt for some time, and the time we had with the Lady Mary added to that ...

    We'd love to go back, but not for a couple of years, and as we've seen the sights. Next time we will be spending more time on the boat getting better value for money from the all-inclusive. Our Cosmos rep on the Lady Mary Glories of the Nile cruise was brilliant. Very knowledgeable about Egypt and very helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. Also, our Egyptologist who led the guided tours round the sights. Her English was great, and she was funny and made all the trips more interesting than t ...

    We had a wonderful time on the Lady Mary Nile Cruise. The pool was cleaned every evening, and everywhere was very clean. I went with my daughter and son-in-law. On one of the trips my daughter fell trying to dodge the many people trying to sell you something, and her ankle really swelled up. Our tour guide helped her back onto the coach and then rang the boat to ask them to have some ice packs ready when we got back. When we got back she was helped back to her cabin, and the Captain arrived abou ...

    The Wonders of the Nile Lady Mary cruise was our first cruise, and we couldn't have asked for a more perfect holiday. Lady Mary was spotless throughout. The food was incredible, and the entertainment was fascinating. It was wonderful to see different sculptures made from towels on our bed every day. For 7 wonderful days we were treated like royalty, and although we visited many places, sitting on the sun deck after our evening meal was incredibly pleasing. Listening to the call to prayer, seeing ...

    Excellent cruise, great value, just a bit frustrating at not enough time to wander at the sights. Wonderful to sit and watch riverbank life, both human and animals and birds! Only buy gold and silver etc at Government shops so you know you're getting genuine 18/24 carat etc - and Gov shops are only for jewelry not other things like in Tunisia.

    Karnak Sound and Light show was a disappointment and not at all value for money. Lady Mary was overcrowded with a lot of standing around listening to overhyped drivel. One woman fainted in the crush. When we got to the seats several people dropped off to sleep. I was there 25 years ago when they kept it simple and had better crowd control. We were promised two hours at Abu Simbel but in the event had just over an hour. Sadly the crush of people and shortness of time meant we could not get i ...

    I have to say that I would recommend the Wonders of the Nile cruise to any one. If you are reading this review then you are already aware of the early starts, morning calls at 5-00AM are common, even one morning at 2-30AM (Abu Simbel). You will soon appreciate why you go at this time,(Valley of the Kings at 7-00AM (125f). If I was to go again it would probably be in Nov,Feb,Mar. All the excursions to temples and tombs are included in the price. The trip to Abu Simbel is pricey(£110)but wel ...

    Just come home from a two week holiday in Egypt, one week Nile cruise, one week El Gouna. There is not a bad thing to say about it. The staff onboard the lady Mary were out of this world, nothing was to much for them. Hazem the guide was on all our trips and told us a lot about all the places we visited Abo simbo was an early start but well worth it. Recommend this cruise to anybody, there is so much to see can not list them all. Just go and see for yourself.
