Nile cruises are all limited to a certain width of 48 feet maximum width, to be able to navigate through the locks on the river Nile, which is why they are normally smaller in size than traditional hotel rooms. On the cruises we always book rooms above the water level, and include the extra cost for that in the tour package pricing in case there is. So, we do not charge extra for above-water level cabins as this is already included. The cruises we book are 5 stars deluxe, with cabins to match that level of service and amenities.
Once you book the tour, the tour itinerary will be sent to your email, including all information about the tour, and as well about the destination. If you need information before booking, please contact our customer service line, where a destination expert will talk to you in person and answer your questions on the spot.
