1. Excellent courteous staff throughout the boat. 2. Food choice was extensive, the restaurant manager ensured that something special was prepared for my wife & me at every meal, both of us being vegetarians. 3. The Egyptologist was extremely well informed and helpful all the way through. 4. House keeping was good, cleanliness & hygiene was of top notch standards. 5. The on board shop was well priced, we ordered Cartouche's for the family, must say he did a great job.

The only drawback was the lack of time at Edfu, the lines to enter early morning were long and we barely got any time at the site. Other than that its a great cruise.

We had a fantastic stay on the Lily. Our suite was spacious, comfortable, and offered stunning views of the Nile throughout the journey. The bed was very comfortable and the extra space made a big difference. The rooftop terrace was one of our favourite spots to relax between excursions and chat with other guests — such a lovely atmosphere. The food exceeded our expectations, with fresh fish every day and a good mix of international and Egyptian dishes. Everything felt well-prepared and thoughtful. Most importantly, the service was outstanding. The crew were attentive, kind, and always remembered our preferences. A highlight was when they surprised us with a tray of Egyptian cookies to take home after we mentioned how much we liked them. This level of hospitality truly sets the Lily apart. We would highly recommend this cruise to friends and family — it made our Nile trip unforgettable.

What an incredible cruise that offers all guests an opportunity to discover the various temples, tombs and sights along the Nile. The staff on the Movenpick Royal Lotus were phenomenal. They really do look after their guests with so much care and efficiency. The whole experience was well run with really personal, small groups arranged for exploring the sights with a tour guide. Food was great with something for everyone to enjoy.

Communication before the trip was a bit of an issue but we needed have worried as everything went to plan.
