Is it just you or are there more? Need to know if we need to add a single supplement to the price or not.

Must the cruise start on the 23rd? The ship I work with leaves Aswan on Wednesdays...that would be the 25th. Does that work or not? If it does, I'll check and see what nationalities are booked so far on the boat and get you a price.

Kenzie, Sorry, I am not happy with this boat or company right now. I went to their office yesterday and NO ONE was there that could help me. Doesn't seem like a good way to run a railroad, if you ask me. I'm sorry I won't be able to help this time.

Any travel agent should be able to find a boat for you though. Good luck and have fun.

Debbie

I copied the following off that site in the Nile Cruise page. Note that the prices are still showing from 2001.

Their prices may not have changed since then as they are shown in USD, but it would be wise to check, and ask for a discount. They are expensive at over $200 per room per night (dbl occ).

Tips:

Rates are expressed in U.S.Dollars.
Rates are per person based on a minimum of two participants.Contact us for all different cases.
Rates do not include any hotel accommodation.
Rates do not include meals unless mentioned.
All tours rates include the assistance of a private guide Egyptologist, unless mentioned otherwise.
All services include the assistance of an escort.
All Visits and transfers are inclusive of Entrance fees to sites, tips and/or portages.
All transportation's are assured by private A/C Cars/Coaches
For groups of 8 participants and more please contact us for special rates and availability.

Can anyone tell me if there's a specific time that the Cruises leave Luxor? I'm trying to book on one (travelling solo) and co-ordinate flights / trains etc., and reduce the number of hotel nights needed.

Also, has anyone used Egypt Reservations (www.egyptreservation.com)to book an Oberoi Shehrayar Nile Cruises (3 nights/4 days) and can give me some feedback on their service etc.

Thanks guys, in advance.

Welsh Lady

It was in March last year. I got a great deal on a single room (upgraded to a suite) because of some connections with Bright Sky (deal with JMC / Thomas Cook. It was the Seramisis II boat. I think the prices have increased alot since then.
