Steigenberger Minerva Nile Cruise - Every Thursday from Luxor for 07 & 04 Nights - Every Monday From Aswan for 03 Nights

It was a lovely Cruise. Staff are friendly and helpful. The programs are nice.

Pros: Good food. Staff are friendly and helpful. Rooms are clean, and tidy.

Cons: I have no comment on this.

Pros: Everything exceeded expectations - the food was absolutely delicious and varied every single day, with generous buffets and excellent quality. The staff were incredibly kind, attentive, and always ready to help with a smile. The entire atmosphere onboard felt welcoming, well-organized, and very comfortable.

Cons: During the stops for the tours, some private guides tend to take guests to the same shops repeatedly, clearly partnered with them to sell products. The first visits can be interesting for seeing local crafts, but after a while it becomes repetitive and a bit tiring.

A lovely boat with superb food & delightful staff. A fantastic experience all round.

Pros: We really enjoyed our stay on this really lovely boat. It was so much nicer than we expected which really top notch food with 3 full meals a day with a great choice of food. The staff were all delightful & couldn't do enough to help us. Each place we docked was in a convenient position for visiting all the sites & as we were doing our own thing & not the organised tour this worked for us perfectly.

Pros: We were recommended by a friend in Egypt who took the cruise before, and it did not disappoint. Particularly Mr. Ahmed Awad went beyond and above solving a small issue we had.

Cons: It's not that we didn't like, but we did not take their tour package that the cruise was offering. We arranged private tours in Luxor, Edfu and Aswan. It was lot cheaper and better.

Beautiful boat, beautiful room, magical views, amazing staff… I felt a little nickeled and dined

Pros: The boat is beautiful and clean. The staff is absolutely wonderful

Cons: The private tours they offer were not good. They were very expensive and the guides were not good. In one case I had a very bad experience. The guides don’t know much, they rush you through the sites and to the souvenir shops (which are company owned)

Probably the best trip of my life so far!

Pros: It's cruising the Nile and visiting the Valley of the Kings and about a gazillion other places I have only dreamed about so it was always going to be awesome but the boat is magnificent and the staff (mostly) even more so. I'm vegan but don't shout about it and just accommodate but when the restaurant found out they went out of their way to provide the most delicious food I can eat. The room was way more luxurious than I expected and the bed super comfy. Housekeeping was great and room super clean. Don't ask for the Nile view, choose the shore side, you'll see more. None of the trips are included. They want you to pay $250 extra to take a guide for the 3 days but I did it without, just taking local taxis and using local guides - way cheaper and keeps the money in the towns.

Cons: Hmmm.... the price quoted on Booking.com was NOT the price I ended up paying - I ended up paying almost a £100 more but there wasn't much I could do about that. A kettle in the room would be good. I live in Egypt and quite savvy to the street hustles but got scammed by a worker from the boat who saw me on the street and said 'hi'. I only wanted directions to a pharmacy but of course i got 'guided' to his local spice shop and scammed into paying way over the odds for teas i didn't want/ need and then he asked for more baksheesh (tips) on top. Not ok. Not professional. Left a bit of a bad taste.

Pros: Wonderful trip with Steigenberger. The cruise is a little bit old and we didn’t get the best room. Having said that, the staff made the trip pleasant. Food was great and the view is spectacular.

Cons: Room facilities is a bit old.

Cruise of a lifetime

Pros: We loved the whole experience from the very nice and cooperative staff to the food and the program itself and the room with private balcony and the boat. All were superb and to a high standard of service.

Cons: I hoped that they could accommodate early check-ins. As we experienced like other guests some flights arrive early. It would be highly appreciated if the boat management would offer a solution for early arriving guests.

good option for Nile cruise

Pros: nice cabins, good food selection, friendly staff. good tour itinerary,

Cons: address is missing on booking.com email and details, never pick up the phone or emails or messages via booking.com provided details, tour guides were not amazing

Overpriced for facilities provided. A 5 Star Hotel in Luxor may have have been a better option.

Pros: Cruise Boat was comfortable & clean. Meals & variety was good. Rooms were great.

Cons: Tours too expensive foe a group of 9 Alcohol prices outrageous for local plonk
