Due to seasonal low water levels in 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 ship offered is a motor vessel, operational noises may occur.
The ships sometimes dock one behind another or side-by-side, so it may be necessary to cross over other ships.

It may be that the ship is not always accessible.
