Kahire & Sfenks Gezisi (Türkçe Rehberli)

March 24, 2025

Türkçe rehberimiz Ahmet Bey sayesinde hiçbir detayı kaçırmadık. Mısır Müzesi, Piramitler, Sfenks… hepsi çok etkileyiciydi! Otobüs rahattı, mola yerleri düzenliydi. Tavsiye ederim.

Gece yürüyüşü ve gün doğumunu Sina Dağı’ndan izlemek tarifsiz bir deneyim! Rehberimiz çok motive ediciydi. Manastırın tarihi hikâyesi de çok etkileyiciydi.

Невероятно изживяване с полуподводница – благодарим ти, Nile Voyage!

March 2, 2025

Семейството ми и аз бяхме на разходка с полуподводница в Хургада, организирана от Nile Voyage, и останахме много доволни! Всичко беше перфектно организирано – от трансфера с любезния шофьор, който ни взе навреме от хотела, до самото морско приключение.

Времето беше чудесно ☀️, морето – кристално чисто, а гледката към коралите и рибите през големите прозорци на подводницата беше просто вълшебна! 🌊🐠

Искаме да благодарим на шофьора и на целия екип на Nile Voyage за прекрасната организация. Беше незабравим ден!

Препоръчвам горещо на всички – особено на семейства с деца! 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

Įspūdinga kelionė į Luksorą

February 25, 2025

Ekskursija į Luksorą su „Nile Voyage“ buvo nepakartojama! Lankėmės Karalių slėnyje, Hatšepsut šventykloje ir Karnako komplekse. Istorijos ir senovės architektūros gausa tiesiog pribloškė. Organizacija buvo puiki, gidai labai profesionalūs. Tikra kelionės į Egiptą pažiba!

Kairo war ein Traum – perfekt organisiert!

February 22, 2025

Wir haben die Tagestour nach Kairo mit dem Bus gemacht. Die Fahrt war lang, aber sehr komfortabel mit regelmäßigen Pausen. Die Organisation von Anfang bis Ende war hervorragend. Die Pyramiden, das Ägyptische Museum und die optionale Nilfahrt haben uns begeistert. Unser deutschsprachiger Guide war super freundlich und hat alles spannend erklärt. Vielen Dank an Nile Voyage für dieses Erlebnis!
