Our group did a 5 day cruise following my friends� wedding in Cairo and the experience was AMAZING. The itinerary the perfect mix of leisure and seeing the sights. We learned all about the ancient Egyptians, saw all the high points, got to relax on a boat running up the beautiful Nile and were absolutely pampered with delicious food. The staff was incredibly accommodating (they even baked a surprise wedding cake for my friends who had gotten married) and just generally so kind. I know there are a lot of tours out there but I genuinely think this is the best one and would recommend it to anyone looking for a Nile experience! Thank you all so much for a week none of our friends will ever forget!

nous avons pass� 5 jours en famille (� 6) sur le Merit 2 et nous avons pass� un excellent s�jour : le bateau est tr�s joliment d�cor� et fleuri, l'�quipe tr�s attentive, tr�s souriante et au petit soin, un plaisir, et les chambres tr�s confortables. Les repas sont copieux, vari�s et d�licieux, avec des chefs au top ! Un vrai r�gal. Un grand merci � toute l'�quipe qui a su nous accueillir dans leur beau pays et dans un cadre confortable, paisible et luxueux, le service �tait vraiment irr�prochable. Merci pour tout. Un grand merci � Karim, le responsable, qui a tout fait pour rendre cette croisi�re la plus agr�able et inoubliable possible : c'est reussi! Nous reviendrons d�s que possible pour rester plus longtemps afin de profiter encore du calme et de la beaut� du Nil. Merci beaucoup.

My husband and I were on the Dahabiya Merit from 8 to 15 October. Almost 1 month later, all the moments I experienced on this boat are still very present in my memory, they were so beautiful. As soon as you get on this boat you get a warm feeling. From the beginning to the end all our wishes were taken into account and fulfilled. All the staff were available, professional and very friendly. The cleanliness is impeccable. The quality of the food is incredible. Everything we ate was fresh and excellent. Following this week we stayed in a 5* Mövenpick hotel and I can say that they should take example of the overall quality of the Dahabiya Merit. The dance party on the banks of the Nile with the whole crew showed us once again, considering the means provided, the importance of our well-being and good living in their eyes. The manager's objective of making wishes come true before they are made was practically achieved. And for this, a big thank you to the whole crew.

We did the 5 days cruise as a group of four. Karim and Hossam and every member of the crew were amazing. They did everything and more to please us and to offer us a great experience on the Nile! The boat and the cabins are spacious and everything is spotless. The food is delicious!!! The organization is perfect and Karim is very attentive to our needs. I highly recommend a cruise on the Merit with its great crew.

An incredible way to discover the cultural monuments and cities on the banks of the Nile! We were incredibly happy with the whole experience: the rooms are very nice, the cleaning spotless, the food a dream (thank you Mahmoud for the delicious meals - we enjoyed every bite) and the crew read our every wish from our lips (thank you Hossam for your hospitality - and the good drinks :P) We will certainly remember the party on the banks of the Nile with local music, Egyptian food - and lots of dancing. What a great surprise! Many thanks to Karim for the great organization and that we felt at home on your ship. We also thank the rest of the crew, which we have not mentioned by name. Every single one of them contributed to make the experience unforgettable for us.

We visited Egypt as a group of 8 persons and spent 6 days on the dahabiya. Karim, Nasser and their colleagues were very friendly and at our disposition day and night! They offered us a true, authentic experience including music, dinner on an island, delicious Egyptian food, small surprises like cakes, drinks, and a swim in the Nile. Thank you for the unique way of discovering your country! Hats down!

We booked the 7 days Luxor cruise and were very happy with this trip: nice cabin, very professional and friendly staff, perfect service, amazing food, large and clean decks. We loved to sit and eat outside and enjoyed the passing scenery. At night, we could sleep with open window to hear the rural sounds of the villages. This ship was made for us. We can highly recommend the Merit Dahabeya

Had so much fun, staff were really lovely and helpful, food was perfect and their schedule was on point with everything organized. I�m not usually pleased with the room hygiene, but this time I really have no comment but �hats off�. Thanks for the wonderful experience and the add-ons that were all for free and made me feel that the Dahabeya Team wanted me to have a good experience in Luxor, especially after telling the manager it was my first time there. Thank you for making me feel welcomed and not just a guest on board!:)

I was visiting egypt with a group of 20 ladies and we rented two dahabiyas and were blown away. Just cruising down the nile in itself is magical but the experience we had on these boats just took it to another love. The boats were huge, we had hot tub, plenty of authentic egyptian food that was delicious, staff waited in us hand and foot. Everyone was so friendly and prioritized our needs. They went above and beyond. They even got is a surprise cake on our last night. This was the highlight of our Egypt trip and we can�t wit to be back!
