Nile Cruises - Having your boat changed at the last moment or on arrival
Over the weekend with the weather changing and having the children to look after I found my myself with some time on my hands so went through some of the many posts on trip advisor on the Nile River Valley Forum to see what contributors were saying, advising, complaining or asking about.
One of the reoccurring themes was the number of passengers who had their Nile Cruise boat changed at the last minute, and in some cases were not informed until they arrived into Luxor. The reason for this is that simply not enough tourists are travelling to Luxor and so although the Nile Cruise companies want to operate their boats, if they do not get the minimum number before the cut off date for the respective sailing they will cancel the sailing. This then means that that the travel company or tour operator has to find another boat which is some cases may not be of the same standard.
At Atp Travel we do not operate this policy unless there is no other choice. We ensure that the Nile Cruise boat the clients booked is the one that they travel on. We have had clients on the Ms Farah where the total number of passengers was less than 10. There is nothing worse than planning a holiday having spent time choosing a boat only for it to be changed.
We have however had 4 clients who were booked on our Creative Dahabeya this week that we had to move to a different Dahabeya as the Creative one was not sailing. Rather than downgrade or risk any issues we upgraded them to the Sonesta Dahabeya Amirat.
So the moral of this one is if you book with Atp Travel you wont be disappointed with your Nile Cruise holiday as you will be on the one you booked.

Luxury Nile Cruises
As the winter Nile Cruise season starts we are seeing a rise in demand for Luxury Nile Cruises. These boats are generally the same size as those of lower standards but are normally much newer, have superior facilities a higher level of service and also of cuisine.
One question we get asked frequently is whether the extra cost is justified against other boats and if a Luxury Nile Cruise offers value for money. Although not an easy question to answer part of our reply will always include the statement "what you pay is what you get" and we explain this by saying that it is possible to have a great Nile Cruise holiday on a 5* or 5* superior boat but as these boats tend to be older and are being sold at a lower price there are other factors that can have an effect.
On Nile Cruises of a lower standard or price, the quality of the food and standard of the cabin is generally not as good. For the food this can mean a lot of repetition of meals, less choice and lower quality. For the cabins, these may not have as many facilities, the windows may not open and they may also be alot smaller. Also where boats are sold at a much lower price there is more of a tendency to push sales and other extra revenue making opportunities which can have an adverse effect on the holiday.
The modern Luxury Nile Cruise boats are truly floating hotels and offer an oasis to return to after a long but enjoyable days sightseeing.
Cabins are of a generous size and all will have fully opening windows to enjoy the Nile floating by. Bathrooms will be equipped with showers and bathtubs and finished to a very high standard. The lounge bars and public areas will provide a very relaxing and comfortably area to enjoy a drink or just to relax. The restaurants will serve a superb choice of meals and most will now serve dinner as a la carte. The sun decks will offer sumptuous day beds and relaxed sofas to soak up the sun. Many now also offer spa and health facilities.
Atp Travel Ltd feature 3 of the newest and most luxurious boats on the Nile, Ms Farah, Ms Mayfair, Ms Esplanade as well as the Luxury Creative Dahabeyas.
Prices start from just £899.00 pp and include return flights, 7 nights full board, transfers and sightseeing itinerary.
