Excellent cruise itinerary and service
Our time on the Mövenpick MS Royal Lily Nile Cruise was calm, enjoyable and well coordinated. The balance between time on board and sightseeing at the Valley of the Kings worked very well. A minor improvement could be more evening time on deck, but the overall experience was excellent.

Muy buena experiencia a bordo
Nuestro viaje en el Mövenpick MS Royal Lily Nile Cruise fue tranquilo y bien coordinado. El equilibrio entre el tiempo a bordo y la visita a the Aswan riverfront fue excelente. Nos habría gustado algo más de tiempo en cubierta por la noche, pero la experiencia general fue excelente.

Très bonne expérience à bord
Notre séjour sur le Mövenpick MS Royal Lily Nile Cruise était paisible et bien coordonné. L'équilibre entre le temps à bord et la découverte de the Aswan riverfront était excellent. Un peu plus de temps sur le pont le soir serait agréable, mais l'expérience globale était excellente.
