The Excursions on the Nile can be Paid for in a few different ways, some travel agents give you the all inclusive (AI) which you will find in the brochures, the itinerary’s start from Monday to Monday or Wednesday to Wednesday, looking at various websites for this ship (MS Fleurette) you would believe that the cruise started only on a Monday, I had to check with my agent to make sure that the date on the ticket was correct.
We started Mid week on the Wednesday 30/05 We paid for the full board package which has a few sights to see, if you want to benefit from the cruise go for the all inclusive or pay for it on board, we paid an £68 extra per person for the full excursion.
