Due to seasonal low water levels of the Nile or due to congestion or maintenance of the Esna locks, changes to the itinerary may occur. In very rare cases, bus transfers or accommodation on a ship of equal value may be necessary to ensure the itinerary.
****************************************
As the offered ship is a motor ship, operating noises may occur.

The ships dock partly one behind the other or side by side, so it may be necessary to cross other ships. It may happen that the ship is not always accessible without barriers.

Egypt is the land of Baksheesh: To save you the stress of constant tipping on board, your local tour guide collects an amount of €8 per person per night on the boat at the beginning of the trip, depending on the ship's category. This sum is used for all the "good spirits" who make your holiday as pleasant as possible and is considered a recommendation from us.
