- VVenessa· March 27th, 2025My experience of the sleeper train was unbelievably odious, starting with the 3rd world standard of the "VIP” waiting room at Giza station where we were made to spend 1 hour. The toilet was so disgusting even the attendant didn't try to charge for use. Our cabin on the train was grim, the old ripped worn carpet only partly covering the floor, so the door kept catching when you open it., The sink still stank of urine from the previous occupiers use, the stained the bedding, the grime table trays on which our food was presented. Having said that other travellers on the boat had a different experience so it might depend on the coach you are in. Needless to say we paid the extra to fly back to Cairo. What can I say, not one single woman employee on the entire experience, except of course for the scantily dressed belly dancer entertainer on the last night on the boat! I lost clothes left in the cabin, that took 2 days to find, by which time I was back in the UK! The boat was okay but could have been cleaner (comes from having an entire crew of young men), the mattress was uncomfortable and lumpy, the food was very good, the staff were helpful.Show more
Egypt Best Holidays commented on this reviewDear Mrs. Venessa , Thank you so much for taking the time to review our tours , we would like to clear that we have ONLY one sleeper train around Egypt and if you didn't like it then it is not something we can arrange although we upgraded the return... Show moreTrip date: March 2025 - GGeoff· February 8th, 2025Fantastic tour, an amazing introduction to Egypt and great value for the price. Really experienced, knowledgeable and professional guides (thank you Sharif and Talaat). As a solo traveller I was looked after very well and the guys went out of their way to assist with whatever I needed. Accommodation was clean and comfortable. I look forward to coming back!Show moreEgypt Best Holidays commented on this reviewThank you so much , You are a champ :)Trip date: February 2025
Michael· November 27th, 2024When we first got on the boat, I had a little problem which my guide graciously fixed it for us and he arranged that when we get to Luxor, he’s gonna have a plane for us to go to Cairo instead of the train he arranged for us to take a plane for no additional cost and this made me very happy. The name of the guide is Khaled.Show moreEgypt Best Holidays commented on this reviewThank-you for taking the time to leave a review. You were a champ! It was a pleasure showing you around.” Stay Safe :),Trip date: November 2024- CWClaudia· January 17th, 2024Overall the trip was great. All the tour guides were very knowledgeable and we especially liked Mary who guided us in Aswan to see the Philae temple, and Sayed who guided us in Luxor. Sayed was very helpful, able to adapt to requests and was great company. Thank you Sayed, you were amazing. The sleeper train was an experience. We had low expectations which were pretty accurate on cleanliness and facilities. However the guard (one per carriage) was wonderful. We always felt safe and it was lovely to wake up to views of the Nile. We didn’t eat the food as had eaten beforehand, which I would definitely advise. We took both the extras (balloon ride and trip to AbuSimbel.) This meant we were up every morning around 4.30/5am! Abu Simbel was good but maybe one to miss if you’re tired. The balloon ride in Luxor was absolutely outstanding. I didn’t know what to expect and with a fear of heights I had not thought about it until the morning we went. It was one of the most peaceful and beautiful experiences I have had. The major drawback of the trip was the eternal request for tips; on every mode of transport to the driver, to the guide, to people who insisted on taking your photo in the temples/tombs, and finally to the boat staff who were very angry at the tip we gave them for taking our bags to the taxi. We would have taken our own bags, however they grabbed them before we had a chance. One would have assumed that on a five star (?) boat taking your luggage to and from the quayside would be part of the service. However, we had 5/6 men on the quayside angry with the tip we gave them which was very intimidating. Fortunately, Sayed, our guide, dispelled the situation. We were happy to give him, and our driver, a generous tip but were not happy about being harassed by the sailors. One more thing to note is that you need to pay for all drinks on the boat, including water, coffee at breakfast, which was a surprise. Finally, we were given our bill on the boat before the balloon ride, i.e. at 5am. It was not added up, their card machine was “not working”. When we didn’t have enough cash, the total changed. We settled on the higher amount when we collected our bags at the end of the day, in cash. Not very 5 star!!!!Show moreEgypt Best Holidays commented on this reviewThank-you for taking the time to leave a review. You were a champ!
