No overnight stay is necessary for arrival and/or departure flights to/from Luxor.
**************************************
The transfer duration from Hurghada or Marsa Alam is 7-8 hours depending on the hotel's location.

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 equivalent standard may be necessary to ensure the itinerary.
**************************************
As the offered ship is a motor ship, operational noises may occur.

The ships sometimes dock one behind another or side by side, so crossing other ships may be necessary.
It is possible 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 will collect an amount of €7 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 vacation as pleasant as possible and is considered a recommendation from us.
