AmaWaterways AmaDahlia Cruise Reviews

There were 8 of us on this Ama Waterways river cruise put on by Wings travel… mostly family with some of our party 70+. We actually started the package in Cairo visiting the Museums and Giza Pyramids before we flew to Luxor where the cruise actually embarks. Cairo / Giza is an amazing city but a little dirty and highly polluted which should surprise no one since there are 28 million people ...
