Email me next May, when I get back from my next rtw trip.
I'm booked with Osoris tours www.osoris.com for a nine-night
trip commencing 25th March, but I won't be answering emails
after I depart Oz in early March until late April.
My custom-designed trip includes a couple of days at start
and finish in Cairo, the sleeper train to Aswan, day trip
(A/C car) to Abu Simbel, three nights on the boat Aswan to
Luxor, air back to Cairo. I'll have a personal
"Egyptologist" and driver most of the time. Price is
excellent for me traveling as a single but I won't quote it
here.
As to whether they are good, bad or wonderful - ask me then.
In your own situation for 5 nights in Egypt I would spend
the first and last in Cairo/Giza (Pyramids the main focus on
one day, museum on the other) and the three between on a
boat from Aswan to Luxor, flying to and from those cities.
