Important page discrepancies: The detailed itinerary resolves the nine nights as five hotel nights, three Nile-cruise nights and one Bedouin-camp night. The page also contains generic 5-star wording that conflicts with the detailed 4-star hotel and 4-star cruise entries. The final inclusion area elsewhere on the page may imply all nights are hotel nights, which is inconsistent with the actual itinerary. Train class, train times and exact non-cruise meal totals should be reconfirmed in writing.
