**************************************
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 overloading or maintenance of the Esna locks, there may be a change in the itinerary. 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 ship, operating noises may occur.
**************************************
The ships sometimes dock one behind the other or side by side, so it may be necessary to cross other ships.
It may not always be possible to access the ship barrier-free.
**************************************
Egypt is the land of baksheesh: To save you the stress of constant tipping on board, your local tour guide will collect an amount of €7 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 holiday as pleasant as possible and is considered a recommendation from us.
