English speaking Egyptologist tour guide during Nile Cruise
The Program excludes:
Water, soft drinks and alcohol on board during meal time or visits.
Laundry costs.
Tips around 15$ per person.
Tips:
Tipping for tour guide, cruise ship, drivers and temple guards. Your guide may ask for approximately $15 USD per person for tips which will go to drivers, temple guards etc. On a Nile cruise it is customary to tip only at the end of the cruise. Sealable envelopes are usually provided for each person to tip staff and crew (this system ensures that all the “behind the scenes” staff is not forgotten).
As a guideline $3 USD per day per person is acceptable.
Please note that it is also customary to tip your tour guide at the end of your program.
