A dream come true! The Sonesta Moon Goddess Nile Cruise was everything I hoped for and more. The ship was beyond luxurious, and the private balconies made it easy to enjoy the Nile’s beauty. The excursions to sites like the Temple of Abu Simbel and the Karnak Temple Complex were well-organized and educational. We also opted for the Felucca sailing trip, which was an absolute highlight. Egypt’s history came to life on this journey, and the experience was truly unforgettable.

What a beautiful experience on the Sonesta Moon Goddess Nile Cruise! Each day brought a new adventure, and the tours to sites like the Temple of Kom Ombo and the Valley of the Queens were simply amazing. The cruise itself was so comfortable, with luxurious rooms and the perfect setting for relaxing after a full day of sightseeing.

If you love history and luxury, this Nile cruise is for you! The Sonesta Moon Goddess offers exceptional comfort and stunning views, but the real gems are the historical tours. From the Nubian Museum to the Temple of Horus, the sites you visit are incredible. The staff was always attentive, and the activities, like the Sound & Light Show at Karnak, made the experience even more magical. I could not have asked for a more enriching vacation.
