Our Best Holiday ever
Excellent hotel and boat and all excursions. Very well organised by friendly staff.
Nothing was a problem, and if it was it was solved quickly.
Our best holiday ever!
How anyone can complain about this company is beyond me.
We had a problem with our booked room before travelling and it was sorted out quickly by Dan at Classic Holidays, thank you Dan.
Safwat was our guide for all the tours from the boat, very informative and helpful, and Hany, the other guide was also available to us. Both a credit to Classic Holidays and you are very lucky to have them both.
Everything was delivered as promised and carried out our professionally with fun and made a wonderful experience.
Our first guide to see the pyramids and the GEM was very good, however he could have spent more time giving us information on the coach to give us more time at these 2 major attractions.
Do be aware that there are early starts and the many tours will be a bit challenging. But this is to get us into the attractions before they get busy and very worthwhile. We were always back on the boat ready for more fabulous food, be it lunch or afternoon tea. And everyone was looked after througout each day, we felt safe and cared for.
This really has been our best holiday ever and would not hesitate to recommend to anyone thinking of a trip of a lifetime to Egypt.

River Nile cruise Cabin from Hell.
River Nile cruise, Cabin front Hell.
We booked the cruise on the understanding that it would be a Cabin on middle to upper levels.
We was at the ground Front.
Therefore when moored the exhaust fumes found it way into the cabin, as the sliding doors were at a Usless level of sealing. Thus causing major beathing issues, we left the cabin door open on returning from trips to let the fumes out.
The constant nose was Horrific, none stop through the night.
We complained the following day, but they had no free cabins to change to.
It turned into a nightmare.
We cannot recommend this cruise UNLESS you have written guarantee about the Cabin location.
We immediately complained to the person on the boat of which we was lead to believe was a representative of Classic Holidays, of which was then escalated to the boats manager.
Of which Nothing happened to resolve the issues.
Classic Holidays failed to mention the Security would be on board with Machine guns, & would accompany us on some excursions.

Hi Karl,
Thank you for your review.
We are very sorry to read that this aspect of your holiday left you so dissatisfied.
We appreciate your comments that concerns were raised onboard. At the same time, we did not receive any direct contact from you during the cruise via the 24/7 contact details provided in our pre-departure information, and only became aware of these issues from your review above and from your email after you had disembarked.
As explained in our pre-departure information, where clients are unable to resolve any problems locally, they are asked to contact Classic Holidays directly so that matters can be escalated whilst they are still away. Had we heard from you directly during the cruise, we would have escalated the matter with the boat owner whilst you were still travelling.
We always want our customers to feel supported when problems arise, and we are sorry that, without direct contact from you whilst you were on the cruise, we were not able to try to resolve this during your holiday.
The full circumstances surrounding how and why this cabin was allocated to you have been passed to the boat owner for investigation.
We also note from your onboard feedback form that you rated the following positively:
Reception: service received from reception - Excellent; appearance of reception/staff - Excellent.
Lounge bar: cleanliness - Excellent; quality of service received - Excellent.
Food: quality of food served - Excellent; variety of food served - Excellent.
Dining room: cleanliness - Excellent; quality of service received - Excellent.
Sundeck: quality/condition of sunbeds - Excellent; swimming pool - Excellent.
Cabin: standard of cabin cleaning - Excellent; quality of bathroom - Excellent.
Public areas: lobby - Excellent; toilets - Excellent.
Housekeeping overall impression - Excellent.
Transportation - Excellent.
Excursions - Excellent.
Your onboard feedback form also recorded an overall boat rating of Good, which is considered to be broadly equivalent to a 4-star assessment rather than a 1-star review.
You also confirmed on the form that you did enjoy your cruise experience.
We further note the positive comments you made on your forms regarding your guide, that the tours were well executed and to a high standard, that the excursions went above and beyond, and the onboard food and drink.
We also note that we have checked with our other passengers in the immediate vicinity of your cabin, all of whom had a lovely time and none of whom reported any issues with fumes. This indicates that the situation appears to have been the result of a specific issue with your cabin sliding balcony door rather than the location of the cabin itself and, had we been contacted during the cruise, we could have escalated this immediately with the boat owner and management so that it could be addressed at the time.
Whilst we respect your opinion and the concerns you have raised, including your comments in your email that the fumes arose from other boats on the Nile rather than from the boat itself, we also note that your onboard feedback form recorded predominantly positive ratings across many other aspects of the cruise, including an overall boat rating of Good and confirmation that you did enjoy your cruise experience.
We also note your comment regarding armed security personnel being present onboard the boat and accompanying certain excursions. Whilst Egypt is a very safe country, we take the safety and security of our clients extremely seriously. Armed guards are present as a precautionary measure to help ensure client safety, and these arrangements have been in place for many years.

Classic Holiday Nile Cruise
We are a family of 4 - two adults and two teenagers (aged 18 and 15 years). We went to Egypt with Classic holidays during the February 1/2 term. We found it very well organised, with important information shared prior to the trip and transfers once we arrived all sorted - even a ferry boat at 3 am to take us off the island hotel in order to catch our early morning flight. The cruise boat was excellent - all staff friendly, cabins comfortable and great view, watching the world go by from your french style windows. The food on board was generally internationally cuisine and there was plenty of food and it tasty.
The trips were very early starts , e.g. some at 4.45 am to beat the mid-day heat and the crowds. We thought our teenage daughters would not come with us, but they did and really enjoyed the trips, especially to the pyramids and botanical gardens. It was a good experience for them, as there are a lot of poor people, and they could see how privileged a life we lead in the UK. Each trip was hosted by the qualified Egyptologist - who were extremely knowledgeable and made sure we were safe and together at all times.
We would recommend classic holidays - great holiday enjoyed by all of us - thank you.

It is how they react when things don't go to plan
Recently returned from 3 nights Cairo (Steinberger Pyramids) 7 nights Nile Cruise (MS Royal Princess) 7 nights Hurghada (Fort Arabesque).
Every transfer/accommodation/food were excellent and couldn't be faulted.
We were looked after from start to finish whether that be a representative of Classic Holidays or hotel or boat staff.
Tips from Classic Holidays re drinks packages on the boat (don't bother) were spot on.
Tipping in advance on the boat was extremely helpful and then we just gave a few £ to our favourites.
Egyptologist guides Adel and George were brilliant and very knowledgable, we learnt so much and they made this magical trip very memorable.
We didn't use Classic Holidays excursions in Cairo as these were very expensive and booked our own at a 3rd of the price and talking to others equally as a good.
It is the mark of a travel company on how they react when things don't go to plan makes them stand out and truly earns our five stars.
7 days before the final legs of our trip, Egypt air informed us that they had changed our flight from Hurghada to Cairo from 13:00 in the afternoon to 08:00 in the morning, that would give us 7 hours instead of 1 to kill in Cairo airport before flying on to Heathrow. One call to Classic Holidays in the UK and Dean who answered the phone, owned the problem. He kept us informed by email and WhatsApp of progress. He reorganised our transfer to airport, accepted the flight change with Egypt Air, arranged for us to be met at Cairo and transferred to and from a very nice airport hotel, providing us with a day room and a buffet lunch, all without any extra charge. A very impressive service.
My only criticism would be that before you travel, Classic Holidays email you multiple flight itineraries, accommodation vouchers and transfer vouchers alongside a Nile Cruise Guide. They recommend that you have these in hard copy....so down to the library we went. We were only asked for one hard copy transfer voucher so this was a waste of time/money and bad for the environment. With the cost of the holiday Classic should post these to you if they are absolutely necessary in my opinion. Or they need to talk to their partners in Egypt to establish if these vouchers are actually necessary. A very small gripe and doesn't detract from the holiday, just a recommendation for improvement.

The Pyramids, GEM and a Nile cruise
We had the most wonderful holiday, everything was so well thought out for the enjoyment and convenience of the customer. The Steinbergen hotel in Giza exceeded expectations, the Orbital staff who looked after us in Egypt were superb. The excellent Egyptologists who took us on our tours were super knowledgeable and helpful. The boat we cruised on to Aswan and back from Luxor was the Royal Princess which was just charming. The food was plentiful and delicious, the staff on board were friendly, really funny and efficient. The young man who cleaned our room twice a day was a joy with his towel animals and his happy demeanor. It was the holiday of a lifetime and I'm glad we chose an experienced firm like Classic to provide it for us.

Great Tour and Relaxation Time
A highly recommended 9 day ancient Egypt tour and Nile Cruise combined with a week’s relaxation in a Hurgada beach resort. A well managed process from start to finish that ticked all the boxes including a breath taking tour of all the principal ancient sites with very good hotels and a wonderful river cruising boat. The only criticism was that some of the tour was rushed due to scheduling issues.

A wonderful trip
From the initial booking to the final journey home everything was seamless. We were met in Luxor, visas sorted for us, help at passports and baggage collection then taken to our boat, Blue Shadow IV. We met our guide;a knowledgeable,helpful and very friendly man called Petro. We visited marvellous sites such as temples at Karnak,Luxor,Philae andKom Ombo. We also had afternoon tea at the Cataracts Hotel. We were really well looked after by the guide and boat staff. Food was plentiful with wide variety. A really good trip. Be prepared for very early starts,they are worth it.

Exceptionally well organised. Met at the airport and accompanied every leg of the journey until we got on the flight home. The tour guides made this such a fun and wondrous experience. Nothing was too much trouble and they went out of their way to make sure nobody missed a single bit. Would certainly recommend this holiday to anyone who has an interest in the Pyramids and Valley of the Kings, Abu Simbel, Karnak etc. The boat, Royal Princess, was something out of an old Agatha Christie novel. So relaxing.

Wonderful trip on the Nile
We have just returned from a wonderful Nile cruise trip with Classic Holidays. Firstly flying to Cairo with Egypt air. Having read the bad reviews about this airline we were a bit apprehensive but to be honest it was fine. We stayed at the Steigenberger Pyramids Hotel for 3 nights which had amazing views of the pyramids. After a flight to Luxor we joined the Royal Princess. Everyone on board from the cabin stewards to the bar, restaurant and deck staff were brilliant.
Our tour Guide, Hany, a very qualified Egyptologist, was so passionate and enthusiastic and a very lovely guy. He certainly brought everything to life and the amount of knowledge he has is truly unbelievable. Nothing was too much trouble for him and the other guide, George, who was also a very knowledgable caring guy. All the excursions were well organised, with some very early starts to avoid the crowds which were well worth getting up early for.
I’ve always wanted to visit Egypt with its wonderful ancient history and so glad we finally did!
Stewart and Mary.

Exceptional care and attention to detail
We have just returned from our holiday in Egypt and can honestly say it has been wonderful. The service has been seamless from start to finish and our tour guide Hany has been exceptional.
We expected the excursions to be brilliant, which they were. However, it has been the attention to detail which has really wowed us. A couple of examples: Being met airside at Cairo by the representative to expedite our arrival through customs; The tour guide Hany who, when it became clear that we wouldn't pass through Esna lock in time to visit Karnak and Luxor temples, organised the coach to pick us up and drive us to Luxor where, after our visit we met the ship.
My wife had a few reservations about travelling to Egypt but the care that has been lavished on us has been very reassuring. We would definitely recommend Classic Holidays for a trip to Egypt.

Both myself and wife wanted a Nile…
Both myself and wife wanted a Nile cruise and hadn't heard of and never used classic holidays before but was first website we got to after TUI let us down with prices and glad we did.
We spent 7 nights on board and even though our intended ship broke down a few days beforehand Classic sorted it out with a different, really nice ship with no drama.
As soon as we landed and were off the plane we were met by Orbital staff who sorted out our visa and helped with bags etc.
On board we met our guide for the week Adel Youssef, who really took great care of his group of around 18 of us and shepherded us around like family and made everything feel safe and doable. It was pretty awesome. We didn't have any problems with diesel fumes as others have reported. We didn't get a room on top 2 decks as told we would but didn't moan about it as room was fine and it couldn't be helped as boat last minute change. It was nice to get tea and coffee in the room also.
All the food was lovely and drinks were not expensive.
Staff really took care of you onbaord and everything we needed was taken care of by staff or Adel. Their attitude is if you don't tell them then they can't sort it which worked really well, our fridge didn't work and within minutes staff swapped it out, no fuss just got it done.
All the trips were amazing and well worth getting up early to beat the crowds with seamless organisation.
We had great fellow travellers on board, met as strangers and left as friends.
Next 4 days were spent in a resort in Hurghada and again transfer was great, no issues, hotel lovely.
We were picked up from the hotel to Hurghada airport by Orbital travel rep right on time and rep took us right to front of airport door, great staff.
Would I go back, probably not as other places to go, would I use classic holidays or refer them to friends, yes definitely.
