We have returned from a week on the MS Monica, we did three nights in Cairo first then flew to Luxor to pick up the boat Monica from the 1 st January 2011 to the 8 th january 2011. The boat is lovely, very clean and a great hallway and staircase! The cabins are small and it can feel quite closed in when you are moored as there are boats either side of you, however once sailing it's fantastic to open the full length windows and watch the Nile go by! The sundeck is great as well, the only day it was crowded was the day we were sailing back to Luxor so everyone wanted their last bit of sunshine
The staff is brilliant; they can't do enough for you. The waiters will serve you drinks on your sunlouners and make sure your glass is always topped up! The room boys do the most fantastic towel art we've ever seen, I won't spoil the surprise by telling you about some of them
The guides are really knowledgeable about all the sites you visit and they really make it interesting and bring it all to life...it's really unbelievable to think how long ago it was all built..and how
All in all a fantastic holiday, loved every minute and I would definitely recommend the M/S Monica
