While I enjoyed the cruise, I should note that 1. All numbers listed for the boat were disconnected and my messages through expedia were never answered. Expedia staff were also unable to reach anyone associated with the cruise. As the result, it was very difficult for me to find out the location of departure dock for the cruise. I eventually got the information from my guide from the previous cruise. Movenpick hotel in Aswan is not associated with the cruise in any way and was not able to provide assistance. This issue may be related to booking through Expedia, but their prices are drastically lower than those quoted by other travel agencies. The boat is quite old. It is very well kept, however. The staff was very helpful. Sightseeing and meals were well organized and ran smoothly. The pool was cold, but the hot tub was enjoyable. Due to recent events, there were few fellow travelers on the boat. I hope they survive this downturn.
