**************************************
The transfer time 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 an equivalent ship may be necessary to ensure the itinerary.
**************************************
As the ship offered is a motor vessel, operational noises may occur.
**************************************
The ships dock sometimes one behind the other or next to each other, so it may be necessary to cross over 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 constantly giving tips on board, your local tour guide collects an amount of €7 per person per night on the boat, depending on the ship's category, at the beginning of the trip. This sum is used for all the "good spirits" who make your holiday as pleasant as possible and is a recommendation from us.
