Hotel notice

Booking Note: Please note that for an outward or return flight to/from Hurghada or Marsa Alam, at least one overnight stay in a hotel is required before or after the Nile cruise.
No overnight stay is necessary for an outward and/or return flight to/from Luxor.
**************************************
The transfer time from Hurghada or Marsa Alam is 4-5 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 equal value may be required to ensure the itinerary.
**************************************
As the ship offered is a motor ship, operational noises may occur.
The ships sometimes dock one behind the other or side-by-side, so crossing other ships may be necessary.
**************************************
It is possible that the ship is not always accessible without barriers.
