Sunset sailing on a felucca in Luxor is a breathtaking experience. Feluccas are traditional wooden sailboats that gracefully glide along the Nile River, providing a unique and tranquil way to witness the stunning sunset over Luxor's ancient landmarks. As the sun dips below the horizon, the sky transforms into a palette of warm hues, casting a golden glow on the surrounding temples and landscapes. The gentle swaying of the felucca, the soothing sound of the water, and the majestic scenery create a magical ambiance that captures the essence of Egypt's rich history and natural beauty. It's a serene and romantic way to connect with the past while enjoying the present moment.
You will watch the views in Luxor for both banks. Luxor Temple view from the Nile.

This was beautiful and loved the crew and the guide Sayed. I wish I could do this every night in Luxor and so appreciative to Sayed and Ahmed for a beautiful drive and tour around Karnak Temple.

We did a felucca sailing trip in Luxor, and it was a wonderful experience. I went with my husband, our two children (ages 6 and 4), and both grandmothers, and it was enjoyable for all of us. The hotel pickup was very smooth — the driver was professional, punctual, and friendly, and the car was clean and comfortable. When we arrived, the crew welcomed us warmly and we set off on the felucca. The driver stayed with us throughout the entire trip, as he was the only team member who spoke English, which was very helpful. Even though the rest of the crew didn’t speak English, they were extremely kind and attentive, doing their best to make sure we had a great time. They even played some music on their drums, which added a lovely local touch. The sunset was absolutely beautiful and made the whole experience truly memorable. We would highly recommend this activity to anyone visiting Luxor.

We had such a wonderful experience for our Felucca boat ride! Amir and his team were incredibly hospitable and very knowledgeable. The trip was perfectly timed to give us the best views from the Nile the entire ride. They were very generous in sharing tea with us and we even had a dance party on the boat! My husband and I had the boat completely to ourselves and enjoyed every minute of it - can’t recommend enough! You should definitely book a trip here while in Luxor!

Our sunset sailing by felucca in Luxor was truly amazing. Bola, our driver, picked us up promptly from the hotel and drove us back. The car was clean and comfortable. The view of the sunset over the Nile was fantastic and we took lots of lovely photos. The friendly crew sang and invited us for a dance on the felucca. It was a lovely experience.

I couldn't have asked for a better way to kick off my Luxor stay! Amazing private (just me!) tour that lasted 3 hours with Amir and his friendly, fun and kind crew! Of all the feluccas sailing the Nile, our was definitely the happiest and having the most fun! We took a nice pitstop at the west bank, and even hung with some donkeys. Mint tea on arrival and hibiscus tea and a song on return; all smiles on this boat! Best for all! I lucked out finding these guys! Don't deliberate, these guys are great!

The Sunset Felucca Ride was pure magic. Drifting slowly along the Nile as the sun set, the sky turned shades of gold, pink, and purple — absolutely unforgettable. The ride was peaceful and relaxing, a perfect escape from the busy streets, with gentle breezes and stunning views on both banks of the river. The crew were warm, welcoming, and clearly experienced, making us feel safe and comfortable the entire time. It was the perfect way to unwind and truly soak in the beauty of Luxor. Highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting — a must-do at sunset. Pick up and drop off were seamless from the hotel
