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 an equivalent ship may be required to ensure the itinerary.
**************************************
As the ship offered is a motor vessel, operational noise may occur.

The ships sometimes dock one behind the other or side by side, so it may be necessary to cross other ships.
It is possible that the ship may not always be accessible barrier-free.
**************************************
Egypt is the land of Baksheesh: To save you the stress of constant tipping on board, your local tour guide collects an amount of €8 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.
