Can anyone help me with a price for a Nile Cruise. 4* or 5* for 7 nights. 23rd February.

Arriving from the UK on flight only so just need the price of the cruise.

Thanks

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

Thanks

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.

25th sounds ok.

Thanks Debbie

Hi Debbie

Any luck with the Nile Cruise.

Thanks

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.

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.

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.
