Myself and Mrs Choppers did the Nile last year, had a great time, went in May, was supposed to do Cairo, Pyrmaids etc and then on to the red sea, but had to fly back as the father in law was taken ill.
We travelled with Kuoni, who were brilliant at getting us home as such short notice (was home within 24 hours from Luxor)
This is the second holiday we've had woith Kuoni, did Sri Lanka in 2010. whould wholehearlty recommened them. You travel in small groups, we had 26 in Sri Lanka and only 6 of us for the Egypt trip. The courier was fantastic.
The Nile cruise was great, plenty of chill time and lots to see, the weather was great too. The only time we got hassle from the a couple of street traders was in Aswan, otherwise they were friendly people. Oh if you do this trip Optional excursion to the Temple of Abu Simbel by bus, its a 3.45am start....
But well worth it.
