We spent a day and a night on a felucca with Tarik & Seleman. It was a magnificent experience and especially a wonderful encounter. Beyond the landscapes and the tranquility of the Nile, we exchanged and shared good moments, and we also ate very well and discovered delicious Egyptian specialties. Everything was perfect from the beginning; thank you to Tarik and Seleman for everything!

We had a great 3-night-experience on the nile with Tarek and Sulayman. They took really good care of us and the food was amazing. I am vegetarian and I always had more than enough food. There were no other guests but my friend and I, therefore it was a very calm, quiet journey. If you enjoy the simple life and can live without a proper shower for 3 days - this tour is for you!

It really was an amazing experience. And the guys that went with us on the boat worked really hard! The boat was very comfortable and the food was the best we had in Egypt so far. Would really recommend. We saw so many beautifull places.

We enjoyed the 3 nights/4 days tour from Aswan to Luxor with Tarik and Sulayman very much. We had a great time on the Nile, excellent food and the two were very helpful and welcoming.

All the family has loved our cruise on the Nile with the felucca ! During 3 nights we have sailed on the Nile with Captain Ali and Mustafa. The felucca is very comfortable (mattress, blankets, mosquito net), Sailing only (no motor at all) and listen music all together. Ali sailed with a very sure and good expertise. Mustafa cooked delicious meals, in such reduced kitchen. They both have been very pleasant travel partners, and we enjoyed our cruise so much! We told them: Thanks to you we have cruised beautifully, slept like in a palace, and eaten as in a restaurant.

I thoroughly enjoyed my 2 night/3 day Fellucca adventure sailing to Kom Ombo from Aswan, with Captain Tarik & First mate/Cook Sulayman. They warmly & cheerfully took care of us, making sure we had our needs met. Captain Tarik steered the Fellucca very skillfully (having 30 years of experience) & when there was no wind or we were going under a bridge he was rowing! Sulayman, in his tiny kitchen corner, amazingly prepared very delicious meals every day, which we enjoyed altogether. There was another person who joined me on this trip & that worked out well as we then shared the cost of both the Fellucca journey & the private car ride to Luxor (via Edfu Temple) after the sailing ended. Sailing down the Nile in a Fellucca is totally chill & relaxing; really good for body, mind & spirit🤩 There's a small, clean toilet but no showers so be prepared. Mosquito proof tents & blankets were provided at night and I was comfortable & slept soundly. I highly recommend JJ Jamaica👍 They were always quick to respond to my WhatsApp messages, and this made it also easy for me to book a private trip to Abu Simbel with them as they offered a good deal for what I needed. And I give 5 stars for that trip too⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thank you JJ, Captain Tarik, Sulayman & Marco🙏

Outdid our expectations in every way! Not only was it super peaceful with amazing views but the service was also really good. Some of the best meals we have had in Egypt and the crew were fun and friendly to get along with. The only downside is that we wished we did it for longer!

We did the 1-night tour and, unfortunately, I found it below average. We left late because the owner was delayed in collecting our payment. After about an hour of sailing, we stopped for a village walk and lunch. Afterwards, we were told that due to the wind we could not continue sailing. However, we noticed other feluccas still sailing and passing us, which made us feel that the priority was simply to stay as close to Aswan as possible to return faster the next day. We ended up spending around five hours just sitting on the boat. Around sunset—after we insisted on sailing—we were told it was finally possible despite the wind conditions. We then sailed for about 30 minutes. We barely crossed the Aswan Bridge, which is where the most scenic views begin. The food was good, but not exceptional compared to other meals we had in Egypt, despite what some reviews suggested. I also found it disappointing that the crew was frequently speaking loudly on speakerphone, which disrupted the otherwise peaceful atmosphere. Additionally, dishes were washed using river water. The following day, after we disembarked, my partner became ill. Overall, I don’t think the experience was worth it for us, though it’s possible we were simply unlucky.

We spent two nights aboard the felucca with family (2 adults and 2 children). We enjoyed the moment, let ourselves be guided by the currents and the wind, see the different landscapes without forgetting the sunrises and sunsets ☀️. The crew of Tarik and Slimane was a real plus. They were listening to what we wanted to do. Tarik is very proficient in English and it is easy to talk with him. He is a very open and dynamic person who even speaks a little French. Special mention to Slimane who managed all meals. Everything was very good and varied! Much more than we had or eat so far in Egypt. It's amazing to cook such good things in such a tight space. The children enjoyed themselves, especially with fresh fruit salads and good pancakes! Thank you both for the stay. If you want to enjoy a quiet experience, over the water, go for it!

Three days down the Nile from Asswan with two families (4 adults and 6 children ages 5 to 13). The boat was clean and spacious, the crew was very polite and professional, always worried with our welfare and accommodating any requests, the trip was an experience of beauty, relaxation and a bit of adventure. Lots of family time without any screens, we were able to sleep, play, chat , read and absorb the beauty of the Landscape, even the kids seemed to relax from their usual turbulent spirits. The meals were amazing, cooked with love, it were a major part of the experience and a surprising one at that. The best meals we had in Egypt by far. The nights were very well slept with the rocking of the waters helping, and the mosquito net avoiding major damage by the swarms of mosquitoes. Overall it was a fantastic experience and it exceeded by far our expectations.
